Assembly Bill 1078 addresses non-residents applying for a California Concealed Carry Weapon (CCW) permit. The bill's language, influenced by a CRPA lawsuit against the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, aims to impose statutory backing for allowing non-residents to apply for and obtain a CCW. It clarifies that out-of-state convictions or comparable legal issues that would disqualify a California resident can also be grounds for denying a non-resident's application.

The HD P4 is noted as a 2011 pistol utilizing Glock magazine style dimensions and features a drop-safe Series 80 style trigger.

Three models from Shadow Systems, based on Glock Gen 4 frames, have been added, marking the first time firearms based on later-generation Glocks are approved.

This video discusses three significant legal challenges in California impacting firearm rights. It covers the Hoffman v. Bonta case, which aims to allow out-of-state residents to obtain California CCW permits, drawing parallels to the Bruin decision. The Wien v.

The discussion highlights the importance of these cases for Second Amendment advocacy.
This video discusses the impact of California's AB 28, which imposes an 11% excise tax on firearms and ammunition transferred through an FFL, effective July 1st. The California Rifle and Pistol Association (CRPA) has filed a lawsuit challenging this tax. For ammunition, individuals with an FFL Curio Relics license and a Certificate of Eligibility (COE) in California may be able to order from online retailers who are exempt from collecting the tax if their sales in California are under $500,000.
This video provides a live watch party and discussion of the oral arguments for the Duncan v. Bonta lawsuit, which challenges California's ban on standard-capacity magazines.

This video analyzes California's proposed SB 160, which mandates statewide firearm registration and an annual fee for lawful possession. It discusses how SB 160, building on SB 2, aims to create a comprehensive database of all lawfully owned firearms, imposing significant penalties, including a $1,000 fine per unregistered firearm starting July 1st, 2025.

This video discusses California's AB 2571, a law that significantly restricts firearm industry members from advertising or marketing firearm-related products in ways that could be considered attractive to minors. The law, signed by Governor Gavin Newsom, imposes hefty fines of $25,000 per item per incident. It broadly defines what constitutes 'attractive to minors,' including the use of caricatures or cartoon characters and offering brand-name merchandise like hats and t-shirts in youth sizes. The vagueness of the law is a major concern, leaving interpretation open to individuals and potentially impacting youth shooting clubs and the sale of beginner firearms like the Cricket. Lawsuits, including one by CRPA, are challenging the bill on First and Second Amendment grounds.
This video discusses the CRPA lawsuit challenging California's Proposition 63, specifically the ammunition background check requirement.
