Deadly weapons.
Summary
Existing law requires the Attorney General to keep records of copies of fingerprints and licenses to carry concealed firearms and other documents relating to the transfer of firearms, and authorizes the dissemination of specified information relating to firearms transactions and possession by law enforcement agencies, the courts, and other specified officers if certain conditions are met. Existing law requires local law enforcement agencies to develop a plan for reduction in the number of recovered firearms that cannot be traced due to obliterated serial numbers. Existing law defines the terms "application to purchase," "firearm safety device," "locked container," "short-barreled rifle," "short-barreled shotgun," and "shotgun" for purposes of firearms regulation. Existing law requires the producer and facility's manager of a gun show or event to prepare an annual event and security plan regarding the show or event. Existing law authorizes the Department of Justice to conduct onsite inspections at the business premises of federal firearms licensees, and authorizes the department to adopt regulations necessary to maintain a centralized list of federal firearms licensees and regulate those licensees. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to those provisions.
