This video provides an update on the class action lawsuit, Bracino v. Boneta, filed by Franklin Armory against the California Department of Justice. The lawsuit challenges the DOJ's ban on the transfer of Title 1 firearms to California residents who placed deposits before August 6, 2020. The core issue revolves around California's reclassification of 'other' firearms as 'assault weapons' via SB 118, preventing legal transfers. While the lawsuit aims to allow these transfers, it acknowledges that registered firearms would still be subject to California's assault weapon regulations.
