California law mandating handgun safety features violates Second Amendment, judge says – By Julia Musto (FOX News) / Mar 21 2023
California gun rights supporters filed a suit last year challenging the law
A federal judge on Monday blocked a California law that restricts the sale of new handguns.
U.S. District Court Judge Cormac Carney said parts of the legislation violate the Second Amendment.
He wrote that the state’s requirements for new handguns are unconstitutional and cannot be enforced.
Because of these restrictions, Carney wrote, no new models of semiautomatic handguns have been approved for sale since 2013 and Californians are forced to buy older and potentially less safe models.
