LEGISLATION PENDING: AB2062 (De Leon) AMMO SALES RESTRICTIONS
In AB2062, the proponents seek to mandate that all retail handgun ammunition sales would have to be purchased only in a “face to face” transaction. Retail purchasers of handgun ammunition would be registered and fingerprinted at the point of purchase. The provisions of AB2062 would have a negative impact on the millions of lawful purchasers of handgun ammunition in California.
- AB2062 WOULD NOT STOP THE SALE OF HANDGUN AMMUNITION TO CRIMINALS!
- AB2062 WILL COST THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
- AB2062 would impose millions of dollars of startup costs without funding and an annual cost of millions of dollars on the Department of Justice, “ Significant annual costs – in the range of several million dollars – for DOJ to create and maintain a handgun ammunition sales and permit registry.
- AB2062 would create a new misdemeanor crime and penalties, increasing the costs of local incarceration and contribute to the already overcrowded prison problem.
- AB2062 would ban the sale of handgun ammunition through the mail order or via the Internet.
- AB2062 would require the fingerprinting on the millions of retail purchasers of handgun ammunition.
- AB2062 would require the millions of retail purchasers of handgun ammunition to fill out registration paperwork at the point of purchase every time they purchase handgun ammunition.
Consumer Implications
- Handgun ammunition sales registered at the point of sale
- Cost of handgun ammunition purchasers permit is $35.00 NO PERMIT = NO AMMO!
- Handgun ammunition purchasers permit is valid for only 5 years
- Handgun ammunition purchasers permit processing can take up to 30 days with the Department of Justice.
- Purchasers would be restricted so that they would be allowed to transfer only 50 cartridges to another person every month unless they are licensed by the government.
- Each handgun ammunition purchaser would pay a $3.00 fee — per transaction
- Only face to face transfers/sales of handgun ammunition would be allowed. This would end all Internet and mail order handgun ammunition sales
Firearms Dealer Implications - New license required to sell handgun ammunition
- Handgun ammunition must be secured so there is no access by the consumer.
