Notice to Our California Customers – AB 1263
At Phase 5 Weapon Systems Inc., California isn’t just where
we do business—it’s home. We’re proud to be one of the few remaining firearms
component manufacturers still operating here, and we’ve always stood alongside
our customers who value personal responsibility, freedom, and the right to
self-defense.
AB 1263 presents real challenges for both our company and
our customers. While we respect the legislative process, we do not agree with
the direction this law takes—particularly when it comes to dictating how
customers can purchase legal products, increased data collection, and the
impact on individual privacy.
As currently written, AB 1263 requires online retailers to
collect and retain personal information, purchase records, and additional
acknowledgements from California customers. That’s not a direction we’re
comfortable moving in, and it’s not how we believe our customers should be
treated. Because of that, we’ve made the decision not to participate in those
requirements.
We strongly encourage you to support your local dealers,
they are a critical part of this community. If your preferred shop doesn’t
carry Phase 5 products, have them reach out to us directly.
We also believe in standing together. Organizations
defending Second Amendment rights in the courts need continued support, and the
outcomes of those cases will shape the future for all of us.
At the end of the day, you should always have the freedom to
choose how you purchase legal products. If you prefer to continue to purchase Phase
5 WSI components online, here are links to resellers who appear to have systems
in place:
