PC 12318 (AB962) A Question

[mrdd]

This section establishes a crime for delivering or transferring "handgun ammunition" without the deliverer or transferor being provided bona fide evidence of identity of the receiver or if the delivery or transfer is not done in a face-to-face transaction.

Does a crime occur if a delivery or transfer occurs in violation and the person delivering or transferring was not aware that the transaction involved "handgun ammunition"?

If so, then does it not follow that as of the operative date, all packages being delivered or transferred within the state must be inspected to determine whether they contain "handgun ammunition"?

I know this doesn't answer your question but, define handgun ammunition.

I believe I heard that somewhere as well. It's a very messy bill with lots of aspects of it unclear, and potentially incriminating without knowledge. That's part of the reason it needs to go.

Exactly!

Yes, it seems that *all* deliveries must be inspected or that all deliveries must be done face-to-face and with the receiver providing evidence of identity. I don't see any exceptions for lack of knowledge on the part of the deliverer or the receiver.
