    CBP
    FAM
    FFDO
    BP?

    Are you trying to find out if these agencies individuals qualify as LEO's..
    Under California Penal Code 830.8 Federal officers are not Peace Officers.

    But what is your question?
    Can these individuals purchase weapons that are LEO only?
    Yes, I'm wondering if Federal Law Enforcement officers are given the same firearms exemptions (such as being able to purchase rostered handguns) as California Law Enforcement Officers.

      California has a list of exemptions for individuals to purchase firearms..
      Federal Officers are on that list.

      Law Enforcement officers can purchase non-rostered firearms. The exemption allows for it..
      The officers must wait the 10 days also unless they have a letter from the Chief/Special Agent in Charge/Director.. The only thing this letter allows them to do is to take the firearm home that day..nothing more.

      FFDO's are not allowed as they are NOT law enforcement officers outside of the FD. They are issued the firearms by DHS.

      California provides coding that allows Federal Officers to purchase without having to provide a HSC..

      That's all.
