New residents moving to California must obtain the new FSC, complete the training, and file a 'New Resident Firearm Ownership Report' with the DOJ within 60 days. Failure to comply can lead to serious legal consequences.

What is the estimated cost increase for firearm training in California due to SB 948?

The cost of obtaining a firearm in California is expected to increase dramatically under SB 948. The new eight-hour training with live-fire practice could be up to 25 times more expensive than the current minimal FSC fee.
