AB 2847 (Chiu) – Strengthens California’s Unsafe Handgun Act (UHA) to ensure that new firearms are introduced that incorporate microstamping technology (to identify shooters) and comply with the UHA’s other safety requirements, including a chamber load indicator and magazine disconnect mechanism (to prevent unintentional shootings).
