Existing law prescribes certain rules and requirements relating to gun shows and events, and the organizers, vendors, and participants, including rules governing firearms transactions at the event. The existing Safety For All Act of 2016, approved as an initiative statute at the November 8, 2016, statewide general election, requires a person, firm, corporation, or other business enterprise that sells more than 500 rounds of ammunition in any 30-day period to have a valid ammunition vendor license. Existing law generally requires ammunition to be sold only to people who meet specified criteria, including to a person whose firearms ownership information matches an entry in the Automated Firearms System and who is eligible to possess ammunition. This bill would, beginning July 1, 2022, allow the Department of Justice to inspect firearms dealers, ammunition vendors, or manufacturers participating in a gun show or event in order to ensure that all transfers or sales are conducted in compliance with applicable state and local laws. The bill would also allow the department to inspect ammunition vendors to ensure compliance with applicable state and federal laws. The bill would allow the department to adopt regulations to administer the application and enforcement of laws relating to gun shows and ammunition vendors.
