California has the strictest gun control in the US. Even more so than Canada.
All gun owners must pass a test, background check and be licensed.
All handguns, and only those approved for sale in California, are registered.
New handguns for the civilian market are essentially banned through manufacturers fees. You won't find new Smith and Wesson models in California.
All firearm sales are recorded, serial numbers of all long guns are recorded.
All private sales must be done through a dealer and recorded.
Magazine restrictions.
Certain firearms are banned.
Certain features (pistol grips etc) are prohibited.
California gun control is operating above and beyond what Obama is asking for.
