For Those that asked, all it does is allow You to buy a Handgun, without it You aint buying one from a Dealer and if U buy one from a private party and do a "Private Party Transfer" You need one. And You do need a Cable lock before You can take it from the Store and U have to have a receipt for the lock dated within 10 days of the date U pick up the Gun. For a Long Gun all You need is a Drivers license and The Model of Your Safe. You sign an affadavit stating that You have a Safe and the model #. Sherrifs Depts and the Hwy Patrol have Public Seminars to protect the Children wherein They Give away cable locks. The paperwork in the bag with the lock says California Dept of Justice approved. U Can't use it to Pick Up Your Gun. I think most Gun manufacturers now pack locks with Their Guns.
Jdad, it is supposed to be $25 for a DOJ background check and if You do a private Party The Dealer is allowed to charge $10 for His time and holding the Gun for 10 days. Most Dealers are even charging the 10 bucks on Their inventoy Guns that They sell.
For the answer to "What is the safest dir to point a weapon" answer is mutiple choice A-up B.-down C. ? D.- in a safe direction. When I took My HSC (Hunter Safety Course) We were taught to keep it pointed down until ready to shoot.
Retired Military is exempt. A Draftee such as Myself is not. You have to retire with at least 20 years service. I don't think Leo's are exempt unless it is going to be a Carry Gun and then they need a letter from Their Commander.
Rusty,We have Lawyers, but if the NRA can't beatem Who Ya gonna call ? We had a propisition on the ballot some 25 years and defeated it overwhelmingly. They just ignored votes and did what they wanted. NRA fought for a number of years with no success, so they finally gave up. They now know that They can't ask Us so they just make Laws without Our approval.
Now U really wanna hear a good one. We can only Buy One "New" Handgun per month. But We can Buy as many Used ones as We want or can afford. I think I'm done. Just tryin to fill the rest of the World in as to what it is like in Good Ol Cali. Stay Put Friends unless U want to come help Us out of this mess.

We can still buy ammo without the card and there is no charge to look at Guns at a Show or otherwise.
