Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key changes in the DOJ's emergency regulations for California's SB2?

The revised emergency regulations for California's SB2 by the DOJ expand the acceptable certifications for CCW instructors. Initially, only BSIS or California POST certifications were considered. Now, certifications from entities like the NRA (including their Law Enforcement Instructor Basic, Personal Protection Outside the Home Instructor, and Certified Pistol Instructor courses) and state agencies like CHP and CDCR are being included.

Why did the California DOJ revise its initial SB2 emergency regulations regarding CCW instructors?

The DOJ revised its initial SB2 emergency regulations primarily due to significant stakeholder feedback and pushback, particularly from California sheriffs. These stakeholders argued that the initial restrictions were too narrow and that instructors certified by programs like the NRA were sufficiently qualified to teach CCW applicants.

What is the process for commenting on the new SB2 emergency regulations in California?

The revised emergency regulations must first be posted on the Office of Administrative Law (OAL) website. Once posted, this triggers a five-day comment period. Interested parties can submit comments during this window to influence the final adoption of the regulations.

What impact do these revised SB2 regulations have on firearms training in California?

These revised regulations are seen as positive for the firearms training community. By broadening the acceptable instructor certifications, more qualified individuals can now teach CCW courses, potentially increasing access to training for Californians seeking their concealed carry permits.
