There is no firearm registration requirement in California except for assault weapon owners and personal handgun importers. With very few and specific exceptions, all firearm transactions must be conducted through a firearms dealer. If you purchased a handgun from a properly licensed California firearms dealer and underwent a background check via the state’s Dealer’s Record of Sale (DROS) process, a record of your handgun purchase is already on file with the Department......... Unfortunately, this is not the case with regards to rifles or shotguns. Prior to January 1, 2014, the Department was prohibited by law from retaining DROS long gun information.
We don't have firearms registration. We have DROS. CA DOJ knows every handgun or assault weapon you have ever bought or sold. They know every long gun from Jan 2014 you have ever bought/sold. You can send DOJ a request for all these weapons along with a notorized copy of the form and your drivers license. They sent me a list of all my guns going back decades. I haven't bought a long gun since 2013.
Call it what you want, I call this registration.

Hopefully Trump will destroy those records.
