California Democrats Push Mandatory Training to Buy a Gun - SB948​

For the first time in California history, this proposal would require mandatory state-approved training, including live-fire shooting and at least eight hours of instruction, just to BUY a firearm — not carry it, not use it, but to own it.
This bill turns a constitutional right into an eight-hour obstacle course that only people with time, money, and flexibility can afford to complete. And the people hit hardest won’t be criminals — they’ll be law-abiding citizens, especially working-class Americans who already live in the most dangerous neighborhoods.
And once the government controls the training… They control the timeline. They control the cost. They control access.

I can see the logic of the people thinking this is a good idea, I do not agree with it.

What I’d love to hear is what specifically does this solve? What dos success achieve?

are there a statistically significant number of deaths or injuries by people who buy a firearm arm that can be solved by forced training? I don’t see this requirement fixing stupid or people ignoring fundamental firearm safety. It definitely won’t make a criminal stop before buying a firearm to consider whether they should go get training…

I just wish there was any accountability

I do not support this. What would you shoot at and what shooting experience would you have before buying a gun? I do not like this at all.

Someone that lived in California told me when they went to shoot they had to reserve a lane and wait 3-4 hours before they could practice for a half hour. ... It was that crowded . After a while they never went to practice .... Too much trouble . How much pressure will this law put on shooting ranges in the state.

Unworkable, but that is the CCP/DNC plan................a million gun owners waiting for a million slots for training to open up............... March, 2134, is the anticipated assigned training date..4 trainers.

The CCP just cannot take over if Trump is alive and the DNC blue states are not in control of the proletariat.

I could get behind mandatory gun safety training, but certainly not like this.

Make it a requirement to graduate high school, like the Economics or Participation in Government classes were when I was in high school. That way, no government gating to exercise a right.

There's other issues that could come up, like the so-called training could be bastardized into anti-gun propaganda, but this will never happen, so no real point in discussing ways to solve the other issues.

Bruen!

That is all...

Voting doesn't require "training" then other Rights cannot survive this threshold of infringement... Simply stated in the ruling!
