California would keep a permanent record of anyone buying a shotgun or rifle under legislation passed Thursday by the Assembly.
The measure would expand state law by adding long-gun buyers to a state Justice Department database that currently can identify only handgun purchasers.
Opponents contend the bill is the latest in a long line of bureaucratic hurdles designed to discourage gun ownership.
“It’s none of government’s flippin’ business what guns I own, or why I own them,” said Sam Paredes, executive director of Gun Owners of California.-[source]
