Frequently Asked Questions

What new gun control laws are taking effect in California on July 1st, 2022?

California is implementing new gun control laws on July 1st, 2022, including a mandatory microstamping requirement for new firearms, a requirement for magazine disconnect mechanisms, and the inclusion of chamber flags as safety features.

What is microstamping and how does it affect firearm availability in California?

Microstamping requires new firearms to have a micro stamp on the firing pin that imprints unique identifying markers on spent casings. This, along with other requirements, is expected to significantly reduce the number of firearms available on California's approved roster.

What are the safety features required for firearms to be on California's roster starting July 1st, 2022?

Starting July 1st, 2022, firearms must have microstamping, a magazine disconnect mechanism (rendering them inoperable without a magazine), and a chamber flag to be considered safe and eligible for California's approved firearm roster.

What is the California firearm roster and why is it a concern for gun owners?

The California firearm roster lists handguns certified for sale in the state. New regulations, including microstamping and other safety features, are making it increasingly difficult for new firearms to be added to this roster, limiting choices for law-abiding citizens.
