SEC. 3.

Section 29310 is added to the Penal Code, to read:

29310. (a) Within 10 days of submission of any application to purchase a firearm, as defined in Section 16190, including circumstances in which the waiting period described in Sections 26815 and 27540 does not apply, the Attorney General shall send a notice to the individual who made the application, informing him or her of laws relating to firearms, gun trafficking, and safe storage.

( The notice shall include all of the following:

(1) California law generally requires that all firearms transfers be conducted through licensed dealers as provided in Section 27545.

(2) Any exceptions to the requirement that firearms transfers be conducted through a dealer have strict limitations.

(3) California law has strict limitations on the loaning of firearms, and on the conditions and circumstances under which a firearm may be loaned to another person.

(4) California law prohibits any person, corporation, or dealer from selling, loaning, or transferring a firearm to anyone who is not the actual purchaser or transferee of the firearm as provided in Section 27515.

(5) Storage of a firearm where children are likely to gain access is a criminal offense if the child obtains access and thereby causes death or injury.

(6) It is a felony under both state and federal law, punishable by imprisonment in state or federal prison, to acquire a firearm for another person who is prohibited by law from purchasing the firearm himself or herself. These transactions are sometimes known as a “straw purchase” or “straw acquisition.”

(7) Cases in which a firearm is found in the possession of a person other than the registered owner are fully investigated, and in cases where violations are discovered, they are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law by both state and federal authorities.

© The notice shall also contain information about how to obtain additional information from the Department of Justice, including the department’s Internet Web site.

(d) The notice shall also include a link to a page on the Department of Justice’s Internet Web site containing a summary of state firearm laws, which the department shall prepare and annually update.

(e) The Department of Justice is authorized to use funds in the Firearms Safety and Enforcement Special Fund to pay for the cost of administering this section.
