What We Know About AB 1263

This legislation targets online transactions for items like pistol grips, barrels, flash hiders, and other specified accessories (full list available in the bill text). It does not outright ban these parts but adds burdensome verification and shipping requirements to ensure compliance with state firearm laws. Starting January 1, 2026, all affected online sales to California residents will require:

• Legal Acknowledgment: Buyers must verify and acknowledge their understanding of California's laws on purchasing and possessing firearm parts and accessories (e.g., Penal Code sections related to assault weapons and serialization).

• Age and Identity Verification: Proof of age (21+ for many parts) via a valid California driver's license or state ID, including address confirmation.

• Secure Shipping and Pickup: The delivery address must match the verified ID. Products can only be received by the approved purchaser—no proxies or third parties.

How This Affects Our Business

Beginning January 1, 2026, we'll adapt our processes to fully comply:

• Enhanced checkout verification steps for California orders.

• Partnerships with FFLs for secure pickups.

• Potential delays in processing and higher shipping fees to cover compliance costs.

We're committed to minimizing disruptions and you always come first. Please watch our short video below to help smooth the transaction. If you're planning purchases, we recommend ordering non-affected items soon.

Thank you for your continued trust and support.

Stay safe and informed,
