California Senate Bill 704 significantly alters the transfer of standalone firearm barrels starting January 1, 2026. All such transfers must now occur in person through a licensed firearms dealer (FFL). By July 1, 2027, an eligibility check and electronic reporting to the DOJ will be required for these transfers, creating a tracked transaction process. The law also broadens the definition of a 'firearm barrel' to include unfinished or partially finished items designed to become barrels.
