Frequently Asked Questions

What is the California Handgun Safety Roster?

The California Handgun Safety Roster is a list of handguns approved for sale in the state. To be included, manufacturers must ensure their firearms meet specific safety requirements, such as having a loaded chamber indicator and a magazine disconnect mechanism.

How does California's AB 1127 affect handguns like Glocks?

California's AB 1127 targets handguns that can be converted into machine guns using third-party devices. If a handgun is deemed 'machine-gun-convertible,' it is classified as an 'unsafe handgun' and removed from the state's approved roster, effectively banning its sale.

Why is California banning Glocks?

California is not directly banning all Glocks but is effectively doing so by targeting models that can be illegally converted into automatic weapons through legislation like AB 1127. This ban is based on the perceived ease of modification rather than existing illegal acts.

What are the arguments against California's handgun ban?

Critics argue that these bans punish law-abiding citizens for the actions of criminals. They advocate for enforcing existing federal laws against illegal modifications, which already carry severe penalties, rather than banning entire firearm platforms.
