Okay, and...
A few questions if I may.
Question one - does any law enforcement officer still use a decertified gun in the performance of his duties? How can he actively violate a state law (regulation?) in the day-to-day performance of his duties?
Question two - would the use of a decertified gun while performing an arrest invalidate the arrest itself? After all the LEO in question was breaking the law when he showed up for work with a decertified gun. What other laws did he ignore?
Question three - what will be the total cost of replacing all of the decertified guns held by various municipalities and issued to their LEOs? And, what are the procedures to review and sequester newly decertified guns so the LEOs aren’t breaking the law themselves?
Oh, what did you say? Oh, this law only applies to civilians; LEOs and Californian municipalities are exempt?
So there is one set of laws for us poor civilians and another for the LEOs. What else is new?
And to think, back in 1982, the VOTERS of California REJECTED Proposition 15 which would have banned the sale of handguns in California.
Since that day the politicians have been trying to find a way around the will of the voters, one little nibble at a time.

Having read the whole list, and doing the o-fish-al search provided by the glorious state of California, I can rest safe in my humble near-the-swamp abode in Louisiana.
I cannot find the legal means to change my birthplace from California, like Barack hussein Obama has done with his Connecticut identification.
The Smith and Wesson revolver model in question, is a “dash 10”, which is not which ‘dash’ I own.
The Browning Hi Powers in question are model ‘510’s’, which are not what I own.
My question is: “What is the possibility that the beat cop is going to be able to tell which ones ARE on the list, or which ones are NOT on the list?”
My other question is this: “What can the plainclothesman carry in their ankle holster, since MOST, but not all, snubnose revolvers have been deemed ‘decertified’?”
Where is the legislation that originally ‘certified’ all of these fine handguns? i think that might be a good legal argument.
And stay out of California.
That is an eerie coincidence. I lost mine in Guitar lake just west of Mount Whitney. Took me 5 days to hike there!
-when enough of you Californians remove the present criminal conspiracy from domination (which I doubt will ever happen), maybe something positive can be accomplished---
I just looked at the list. Yep. The state has managed to get around the voter’s 1982 rejection of Prop 15.
