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.

State gun control laws don't mean a whole lot when they share borders with states with some of the loosest gun regulations in the country. If someone in LA can drive a few hours to Vegas or Phoenix to load up on guns it defeats the whole purpose of the California laws
