Existing law prescribes certain rules and requirements relating to gun shows and events, and the organizers, vendors, and participants, including required signage, notice to the Department of Justice, rules governing transactions, and rules regarding firearms brought to the event. A violation of any of these provisions is a crime. The existing Safety For All Act of 2016, approved as an initiative statute at the November 8, 2016, statewide general election, requires the sale of ammunition to be conducted by or processed through a licensed ammunition vendor. The Safety For All Act of 2016 authorizes, as specified, the sale of ammunition by a licensed vendor at gun shows and events. This bill would amend those provisions of law prescribing the rules and regulations for gun shows and events to be consistent with the sale of ammunition at gun shows and events as authorized by the Safety For All Act of 2016. By updating the provisions relating to guns shows and events, any violation of which is a crime, this bill would expand the applicability of an existing crime, thus creating a state-mandated local program. Existing law authorizes the Department of Justice to charge a fee, as specified, to fund several enforcement and administrative programs relating to firearms. Existing law authorizes this fee to cover the regulatory cost of processing firearms transactions, as specified. This bill would reduce the amount of the fee to $1 and remove the authority of the department to spend the proceeds from the fee on specified regulatory costs related to the purchase, sale, and transfer of firearms, as specified. The bill would also authorize the department to charge an additional fee in the amount of $31.19 per firearms-related transaction to cover the costs of its firearms-related regulatory and enforcement activities, as specified. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
