The California Legislature enters its final full week of the 2026 Legislative Session on Monday, with several anti-gun bills eligible for floor votes. The most egregious bills include AB 2047, which further restricts the use of 3-D printing technology, and SB 948, which creates yet another unconstitutional barrier to exercise your Second Amendment rights.

The following bills are eligible for a vote on the Senate Floor:
Assembly Bill 1753 "clarifies" California’s Gun Violence Restraining Order (GVRO) violation framework by explicitly subjecting ammunition possession to the same hearing and enforcement procedures currently applied to firearms. Red flag laws have repeatedly stripped law-abiding citizens of their Second Amendment rights while undermining basic due process protections. Existing red flag laws in California should not be expanded under the guise of “clarification,” but repealed.
Assembly Bill 1974, framed as a "voluntary" firearm storage measure, expands government involvement in the custody and disposition of lawfully owned firearms. AB 1974 creates another pathway through which law-abiding Californians may face administrative hurdles when seeking the return of their property. The bill's destruction of provisions and reliance on California's existing firearm-release bureaucracy raises concerns that firearms surrendered for temporary safekeeping could become difficult or costly to recover.
Assembly Bill 2047 targets 3-dimmensional printers by restricting their sale or transfer unless equipped with so called “firearm blueprint detection algorithms." The bill represents a broad attack on lawful technology and raises concerns about free speech, innovation, and the rights of law-abiding Californians. These concerns are not just realized by firearm owners, but tens-of-thousands of STEM educators and technology professionals.
The following bills are eligible for a vote on the Assembly Floor:
Senate Bill 948 dramatically expands California’s Firearm Safety Certificate (FSC) requirements by mandating a minimum four-hour training course beginning in 2028, including live-fire exercises and state-prescribed classroom instruction. Criminal misuse of firearms is not the result of insufficient government mandates, yet this bill imposes additional regulatory burdens on law-abiding citizens while doing nothing to address crime.
Senate Bill 1220 seeks to add a new firearm-prohibiting misdemeanor to California's list of offenses that trigger a 10-year firearm prohibition. Specifically, a person convicted of possessing, selling, transferring, or otherwise dealing with a firearm that has had its identifying marks or serial number altered. While existing law already makes it a misdemeanor to possess or transfer a firearm with such traits, this bill expands California's ever-growing list of misdemeanor offenses that can result in the loss of constitutional rights.
Assembly Bill 1743, on a concurrence vote, expands the state’s firearm owner’s data-sharing framework by increasing access to information maintained in California’s Automated Firearms System and related databases. Expanding this system raises significant concerns given California’s track record of protecting firearm owner data. In 2022, the California Department of Justice exposed the personal information of thousands of firearm owners and concealed carry permit holders in a widely reported data breach.
