FAQ - California Compliance
What does the term “California Compliant Guns” mean?
"California Compliant Guns" refers to the set of firearms that adhere to the specific regulations set by the state of California. Given the state’s distinctively rigorous firearm regulations, these compliant guns ensure that firearm enthusiasts remain within the bounds of the law.
I’m confused that there is a California “assault weapons” ban, yet an AR-15 can be classified as a California Compliant Gun?
Yes. While California has strict regulations on AR-15s, enthusiasts can possess semiautomatic AR-15s that are designated as California compliant guns. This requires the rifle to fit within the fixed-magazine or featureless categories as set by the state. See the next FAQ question for more details on which is right for you.
I live in California and I want to buy a pistol. People are telling me what I buy has to be on a “roster.” How does “the roster” impact the availability of California compliant guns?
"The roster" is an integral component of the state’s regulation, listing handguns that meet California’s safety and functionality criteria. For a handgun to be sold and considered a California compliant gun, it needs to be on this roster, thereby influencing the types of handguns available in the market.
In California, firearms must meet specific criteria to be considered compliant with the state's strict gun laws. California compliant firearms are those that do not fall into the category of "assault weapons" as defined by state law and meet all other legal requirements. Here are some of the characteristics of California-compliant firearms:
California Compliant Handguns
-
Safety Features: Must include certain safety features, such as a loaded chamber indicator, a magazine disconnect mechanism, and micro-stamping technology (for newer models).
-
Roster of Handguns Certified for Sale: Must be listed on the California Department of Justice's roster of handguns certified for sale.
California Compliant Rifles
-
Featureless Rifles: Semi-automatic, centerfire rifles that do not have any of the following features:
-
A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon.
-
Thumbhole stock or folding/telescoping stock.
-
A grenade launcher or flare launcher.
-
Flash suppressor.
-
Forward pistol grip.
-
Instead, they may have a fixed stock, a grip that does not allow the thumb to wrap around it, and a muzzle brake instead of a flash suppressor.
-
-
Fixed Magazine Rifles: Semi-automatic, centerfire rifles with a fixed magazine with no more than 10 rounds are also compliant.
California Compliant Shotguns
-
Shotguns must not have features that classify them as assault weapons, such as a revolving cylinder or certain combinations of features like a telescoping stock or a pistol grip.
General Requirements for All Firearms
-
Magazine Capacity: Magazines must not exceed a 10-round capacity.
-
Age Restrictions: Buyers must be at least 21-years old for handguns and 18 for rifles and shotguns.
-
Background Checks: Mandatory for all sales, including private transactions and sales at gun shows.
-
Firearm Safety Certificate (FSC): Buyers must possess an FSC obtained by passing a written safety test.
It's important to note that California's gun laws are subject to change and may vary based on new legislation or court rulings. For the most accurate information, consulting with a legal expert or referring to the California Department of Justice's Bureau of Firearms is recommended.
