Existing law, subject to exceptions, provides that no person shall sell, lease, or transfer firearms unless that person is licensed, as specified. This bill would add exceptions to these provisions for the exchange of a firearm to or from a gunsmith for purposes of service or repair, and would exempt from these provisions, the delivery, sale, return, or transfer of certain firearms by persons holding certain permits, as specified. Existing law provides that no person shall make an application to purchase more than one handgun within any 30-day period. Existing law also exempts various entities from this restriction. This bill would add to the list of exempted entities community colleges that are certified by the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training to present the law enforcement academy basic course or other commission-certified law enforcement training. Existing law provides that, commencing July 1, 2008, a person who is a federally licensed firearms dealer may not deliver, sell, or transfer a firearm to a person in California who is a federally licensed firearms dealer unless, prior to delivery, the person intending to deliver, sell, or transfer the firearm obtains a verification number via the Internet for the intended delivery, sale, or transfer, from the Department of Justice. One provision of law exempts from these verification number requirements any delivery, sale, or transfer of a short-barreled rifle, short-barreled shotgun, machinegun, or an assault weapon, as specified, while an alternate provision exempts from these verification number requirements only the lawful delivery, sale, or transfer of these weapons, as specified. The bill would delete these exemptions from the verification number requirements. This bill would create additional exemptions from the verification requirement for certain other firearms transactions. Existing law requires the Department of Justice to maintain a centralized list of federal firearms licensees, as specified. Existing law authorizes the department to assess an annual fee on those licensees listed on that centralized list. This bill would remove persons identifying themselves as federally licensed pawnbrokers from those required to be included in the centralized list, and would exempt persons possessing specified permits who are on the centralized list from the fee assessment. This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 12078 of the Penal Code proposed by SB 41, to become operative if this bill is enacted after SB 41.
