Frequently Asked Questions

What are the new requirements for California's Firearm Safety Certificate (FSC)?

Under SB 948, California's FSC will require a minimum of one hour of live-fire training and four hours of classroom instruction, a significant increase from the previous simple test. This applies to most firearm purchases and transfers, including for new residents. The FSC is valid for five years.

How will California regulate 3D printers used for firearm manufacturing?

AB 2047 proposes a 3D printer roster where manufacturers must attest that their printers meet industry standards for firearm blueprint detection and include 'gun blockers.' This attestation process is slated to be in place by July 1, 2028, with penalties for non-compliance.

What changes are happening with firearm dealer inspections in California?

California's DOJ will conduct enhanced inspections on the top 10 firearm dealers identified as major sources of crime guns. These inspections will focus on minor details and clerical errors, potentially leading to increased scrutiny and enforcement actions against these businesses.

How do these new California gun laws affect people moving into the state?

New residents moving to California will face more stringent requirements for registering their firearms. They will need to obtain a new Firearm Safety Certificate (FSC) which includes live-fire and classroom training, and then have 180 days from acquiring the firearm to complete the registration process with the DOJ.
