Hey everybody, how's it going? Welcome back to Copper Jacket TV. So I've been getting some questions in my inbox recently about some new gun control laws that were just passed in the state of California. People want to know what's going on with them and when they're going to take effect. So today, we're going to be talking about California's carry bill SB2 and the new 11 tax SB 28, which both recently passed. So let's get to it.

This video is proud to be sponsored by Mechanic Superstore. If you're sick of lying on your back working on your vehicle or maybe you just want to clean up your garage, check out their two-post lifts, four-post lifts, motorcycle lifts, and parking lifts. They have absolutely everything that you're going to need, including lifetime technical support. Now, if you're like me, you spend more time in the garage than you do in your home because that's where your passion for vehicles exists. But we don't always have enough space to get everything we want done. That's where getting a parking lift, a two-post lift, or a four-post lift, even a motorcycle lift, can help move some of that stuff out of the way.

One of my favorite things about Mechanic Superstore is they not only cater to the individual like you and I who want to have the best garage in the neighborhood, but they also cater to the professional.

Okay, so let's go and talk about what's going on here because I got a couple of messages recently from people who said that they went to their shop, they didn't see an 11 tax, they didn't see a price increase, and they're wondering what's going on. There are some people in California that think that once these laws pass, they take effect. So let's go ahead and talk about these two.

The first one is going to be SB2. Now SB2 has actually seen multiple iterations. The first one, which was introduced into the Senate and the Assembly back in December of 2015, actually had an emergency clause, which means that it had to receive a higher vote threshold, and that one ended up failing, which still kind of surprised me. So they removed that emergency clause, they made some changes and amendments, and then brought it back as SB2, and that's what just recently passed the Senate and the Assembly and what's currently sitting on the governor's desk. Now the thing with this one is the governor has already indicated that he plans on signing this, so we're almost positive that this one is actually going to become law, but it has not taken effect yet. The moment that it takes effect, we have a specific date, I will let you guys know what that date is.

When it comes to SB 28, this is one that I haven't really heard too much about from the governor, whether or not he's actually guaranteed to sign it or he's going to veto this one and let it pass just based on what he's signed in the past. I'm pretty sure he's going to sign it, but I'm not 100% positive. As a matter of fact, this is one that they've been trying since 2013, which is to increase or add an excise tax onto the sale of firearms or ammunition. So that one, SB 28, just passed the Senate and the Assembly as well. That's also sitting on the governor's desk, but we're not sure when or if he actually plans on signing that one. So that's why you're not seeing the changes at the shop quite yet because this one's going to require some procedural changes on how and how much they collect from FFLs and vendors. This one's not set to take effect until July 1st, 2024. After that, oh, guaranteed you're going to see those prices start to increase. But that's if the governor signs it. Again, I haven't seen anything concrete that says he's going to sign it, but just based on history, I would think that he is.

So just like always, if you live in California, keep your head on a swivel, and just remember there's no such thing as a stupid question because these things seem to change pretty much every single month, and it is extremely difficult to keep up with them. So if that's something that you're wondering, ask. Don't worry about how anybody's going to perceive your question. It's best to know what's going on in that state. So if you're somebody who wants to know what's going on at all times, you can always go ahead and subscribe, hit that little alarm notification that'll let you know when new videos come out. I try and stay up to date with what's California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, and all these different states that are constantly passing these laws are up to, and I try and put them out as fast as possible as well so you guys will be up to date with the latest things.

So again, you know California, everything's always up in the air, so we'll see what happens. We know that SB2 is going to be signed; that one's going to go into law. Thankfully, there are lawsuits fighting back against that one already. But SB 28, not so sure. So again, I'll let you know as soon as that happens if it does. And I want to thank you all very much for watching. I really do appreciate it. Please like, subscribe, subscribe. You guys have a great day.
