SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Peace officers and members of the military seeking to resell handguns that aren’t approved by the California Department of Justice could sell them only to other authorized individuals under a bill that passed the Assembly on Thursday.
State law prohibits people from buying a handgun from a dealer if it has not been deemed safe by the state Justice Department. Peace officers are exempt from that law and are not restricted in how they resell the firearms.
