Firearms: waiting period.

Abstract

Existing law prohibits a dealer from delivering a firearm to a person within 10 days of the application to purchase or submission to the Department of Justice of the information and fees required to determine eligibility to own or possess a firearm. Violation of this provision is a misdemeanor. Existing law requires a dealer to be licensed to sell firearms, which license is subject to forfeiture if the dealer delivers a firearm within the 10-day waiting period. This bill would, instead, require a 72-hour waiting period for the above provisions.
