SACRAMENTO, Calif. (FOX26) \u2014 Governor Gavin Newsom signed three gun bills late Friday that will significantly alter firearm sales and carry regulations in California.<\/p>\n

One of the new laws, AB 1127, will ban future commercial sales of Glocks and Glock-style pistols starting January 1st.<\/p>\n

Lawmakers say the legislation targets pistols that can be converted with commercially available “pistol converters.” The converter allows the semi-automatic pistol to become fully automatic.<\/p>\n

Another bill, SB 704, mandates that starting July 1, 2027, purchasing a barrel will require shipment to a Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) and a background check through California’s system, along with associated fees. <\/p>\n

Additionally, AB 1078 introduces new “sensitive places” with public transit restrictions and establishes an out-of-state carry permit path effective Jan. 1, 2026. It also imposes a three-guns-per-month purchase limit, effective July 1, 2027. <\/p>\n

Legal challenges to these laws are anticipated, with lawsuits expected to be filed soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SACRAMENTO, Calif.
