Introduced Session

AB 1402, Committee on Public Safety. Deadly weapons. Existing law generally regulates deadly weapons. Existing law, operative January 1, 2012, reorganizes and renumbers sections of the Penal Code relating to deadly weapons. This bill would make nonsubstantive cross-reference changes to provisions of law that reference various deadly weapons provisions in the Penal Code that have been reorganized and renumbered, to be operative January 1, 2012. The bill would make additional technical, nonsubstantive changes to some of those provisions. Existing law, operative January 1, 2012, provides that the Legislature occupies the whole field of regulation of the manufacture, sale, or possession of imitation firearms, as defined, including provisions making exceptions to the definition of an "imitation firearm." The bill would provide that the Legislature occupies the whole field of regulation of the manufacture, sale, or possession of imitation firearms, as defined. However, the bill would omit reference to the Legislature occupying the whole field of regulation regarding the exceptions to the definition of an "imitation firearm." This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 1203.4a of the Penal Code proposed by SB 428, to be operative only if SB 428 and this bill both amend Section 1203.4a of the Penal Code, are both chaptered, and become effective on or before January 1, 2012.
