What it does
Existing law generally regulates the transfer and possession of firearms. Existing law defines the term "firearm" for various regulatory purposes, including, among others and subject to exceptions, the requirement that firearms be transferred by or through a licensed firearms dealer, the requirement of a 10-day waiting period prior to delivery of a firearm by a dealer, the requirement that firearm purchasers be subject to a background check, and the prohibition on certain classes of persons, such as felons, possessing firearms. Under existing law, the term "firearm" includes the frame or receiver of the weapon. Existing law makes a violation of certain of these prohibitions a crime.
