AB 857 |
Require that all unserialized guns be serialized and registered. |
Will need to engrave serial numbers on all 80% guns, but C&R pieces and any non-handgun made prior to 12/16/1968 are exempt. § 479.102 seems to be the standard. |

AB 2459 |
Additional FFL licensing requirements; probably close most gun shops in CA. |
Prohibit home FFLs, require extensive video recording and 5yr storage, permit local governments to further restrict gun shops. |

AB1511 |
Restructures "loan" of firearms to require FFL transfers |
Family members may still loan guns to each other, but no one else may loan a gun to a friend to, for instance, try it out at the range. |

AB1695 |
Specifically criminalizes (perhaps enhances?) the crime of falsely reporting a firearm as stolen. |
Likely this is to criminalize people who claim their assault weapons were "stolen" to avoid registration. |

AB1673 |
Require registration of incomplete 80% firearm blanks |
Deemed too broad (i.e. rectangular pieces of 3/8" steel could be deemed 80% 1919 sideplates) |

AB1674 |
Apply one gun purchase per 30 days to all firearms, including PPT |
Brown vetoed based upon the chilling effect it would have on folks disposing of firearms. |

AB2607 |
Extend "gun violence restraining order" to employers, teachers, etc |
Would have enabled capricious, punitive use of GVRO's to strip gun ownership. |

SB 880 |
Reclassifies "bullet button" equipped rifles as detachable magazine |
Requires that pretty much all bullet button equipped rifles must be registered as assault weapons. Does not affect featureless rifles. Side effect: Registered assault weapons wouldn't need compliance devices anymore - i.e. no bullet buttons required. |

SB 894 |
Alter theft reporting on firearms |
Make it a crime to fail to report a stolen firearm within 5 days. Make it a crime to report a firearm lost or stolen when it wasn't. |

SB 1006 |
Establish "California Firearm Violence Research Center". |
Give grants for research on firearms violence. Grants are expected by pro-2A groups to go to anti-gun scaremongering vs scientific root cause analysis. |

SB 1037 |
Redefines statutes of limitations on many things, handguns among them. |
Statute of limitations changed to one year from the discovery of the transfer, but no more than five years from the act itself. Effectively extends SOL to 5 years unless the act was discovered sooner and no charges were filed. |

SB 1235 |
Expands "handgun ammunition" laws to cover all non-blank ammunition |
Wording “ammunition” includes, but is not limited to, any bullet, cartridge, magazine, clip, speed loader, autoloader, or projectile capable of being fired from a firearm with a deadly consequence is interesting. Magazines themselves are not fired from a firearm. |

SB 1407 |
"Ghost Gun" bill - serialization |
Starting Jul 1 2018, people must obtain a serial number prior to completing an 80% receiver. Jan 1 2019, criminalizes possession of unserialized firearms (no exception for very old guns made without serial numbers) Bans the sale of all guns built from 80% receivers. |

SB 1446 |
Ban on possession of large capacity magazines |
Possession of >10rd mags becomes an infraction (not misdemeanor or felony), capped at $500. The law does not prohibit continued possession of "rebuild kits", so the lawful path would be to disassemble any large capacity magazines and stick with 10rd magazines. |
