SACRAMENTO, Calif. โ€” Gov. Gavin Newsom will soon be a first-time firearm owner.

Shawn Ryan, a conservative-leaning podcaster, gifted the governor a Sig Sauer P365 XMACRO pistol within the first five minutes of his show featuring Newsom on Monday. The pistol is a popular pick as a concealed carry firearm. Ryan told the governor it's California compliant.

"This is fabulous," Newsom told Ryan as he held the pistol in his hands. "The last thing people would expect is that I respect this gift."

"Really?" Ryan replied.

"Yeah, man, I'm not anti-gun at all," Newsom said as he placed the gun back into its box. "I'm not anti-gun at all. I'm just for gun safety, common sense. The vast majority of folks on the right and the left agree. And I think we've lost a little touch with some common sense around background checks, I think there's an age appropriateness."

The governor told Ryan he has had concerns with large capacity magazines and "weapons of war."

From the John Kerry school of firearm acquisition and usage.

Under Biden there would have been intense scrutiny of the straw-man purchase provision.

He used language like “common sense”, “background checks”, and “weapon(s) of war”. Gavin Newsome is trying to rebrand as something “moderate” so he can run for higher office in a couple of years. He’s already going around with the 3/4 sleeves, unbuttoned shirt, pretending he’s Barack Obama, and there will be people dumber enough to buy into it.

Newsom's communications director, Izzy Gardon, confirmed to KCRA 3 that the pistol will be the first firearm registered in Newsom's name.

That's telling. He'll certainly do the right thing and turn it in to the sheriff.

Can you legally ‘gift’ a firearm to a politician? Or to anyone? Isn’t that looking like a bribe of some kind? They’re aught to be a law! ;)

I had to wait 11 days. Law is 10 but the store wanted to make sure. Background check included questions like ‘Is this a straw purchase? Do you know wat a straw purchase is?’. In addition to the wait it took 2 trips to the store and about 6 hrs waiting for my number to be called. Should have driven to Boomtown, NV.
