Lending "Unsafe Handguns"

[Sam]

Out of boredom I was reading the calgunwiki and came upon the Safe Handgun List page. There, I found Penal Code 12125(a):

Commencing January 1, 2001, any person in
this state who manufactures or causes to be manufactured,
imports into the state for sale, keeps for sale, offers or
exposes for sale, gives, or lends any unsafe handgun shall
be punished by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding one
year.

Emphasis added.

While I've certainly read this portion of the penal code before, I realized today that it is illegal to lend an "unsafe handgun". While this is a very speicifc and uncommon portion of the section to discuss, does anyone know of any cases concerning the lending of an "unsafe handgun?"

Define "unsafe handgun".

...While I've certainly read this portion of the penal code before, I realized today that it is illegal to lend an "unsafe handgun".

California Penal Code Sections 32110(a) and (b) exempt loans of unsafe handguns if the loans comply with California's rules on loaning handguns.

32110(a) says if the loan goes through the PPT process then it is exempt from the unsafe handgun loan prohibition. 32110(b) says that if the loan is exempt from the PPT process (under 30 day loan to a friend who has an HSC, loan to parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, spouse, etc) then it is exempt from the unsafe handgun loan prohibition.

The moron that came up with this penal code is the one that should be considered as "unsafe".

You just described many California politicians...

Define "unsafe handgun".

Not-rostered = Unsafe.
