LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 2860, as introduced, Travis Allen. Firearms: unsafe handguns.
Existing law, subject to exceptions, generally makes it an offense to manufacture or sell a handgun that is not safe. Existing law establishes criteria for determining if a handgun is unsafe. Existing law generally requires manufacturers to submit samples of new handgun models for testing to determine if they are unsafe or may be approved for sale, as specified. Existing law requires the Department of Justice to compile a roster listing all of the handguns that have been tested and determined not to be unsafe.
This bill would repeal all of these provisions.
