SC
Assembly to Consider Severe Restrictions on Ammunition Sales -- Contact Committee Members Today!
Yesterday, April 8, the Assembly Public Safety Committee considered legislation that would require gun owners to obtain a "permit-to-purchase" before buying handgun ammunition.
The bill passed out of committee despite Assemblyman Anderson's no vote. AB 2062's next committee assignment is the Committee on Appropriations.
Assembly Bill 2062 would require that law-abiding gun owners obtain a permit to buy handgun ammunition and would impose severe restrictions on the private transfers of handgun ammunition. Applicants for a "permit-to-purchase" would be required to submit to a background check, pay a $35 fee, and wait as long as 30 days to receive the permit.
Under AB2062, it would be unlawful to privately transfer more than 50 rounds of ammunition per month, even between family and friends. Ammunition retailers would have to be licensed and store ammunition in such a manner that it would be inaccessible to purchasers. The bill would also require vendors to keep a record of the transaction including the ammunition buyer's name, driver's license, the quantity, caliber and type of ammunition purchased, and right thumbprint, which would be submitted to the Department of Justice or the number of their handgun ammunition purchase permit.
All ammunition sales in the State of California would be subject to a $3 per transaction tax. Lastly, mail order ammunition sales would be prohibited. Any violator of AB2062 would be subject to civil fines.
Please email Assemblyman Anderson and let him know you support his efforts against this outrageous attack on our second amendment rights!

Please also contact the members of the Assembly Appropriations Committee TODAY and respectfully urge them to oppose this onerous attack on our Second Amendment freedoms.

for that. Now if you and your family take a trip out to the Swell to do some wheelin’ and shootin’, the Adventure Forum is a perfect place to share the experience. Posting about one state’s pending gun legislation isn’t going to inspire anyone to go anywhere. A debate over whether it is called a “clip” or a “magazine” is a perfect example of the kind of gun post that is pointless in an Adventure Forum. Change the name to the Outdoor Gear Forum if that is what you really wanted to talk about here and I’ll quit bugging on the subject.
