(8) A consultant-evaluator. -- Ammo Purchase/Transfer

[ugimports]

Does anyone know where this exemption is defined:
(8) A consultant-evaluator.

from:

https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?lawCode=PEN&sectionNum=30312

What credentials / requirements are needed for us to confirm someone is a consultant-evaluator of ammo? Is someone that hosts a youtube channel sufficient?

I think I found this old definition:

This bill would define consultant-evaluator as "a consultant or evaluator who, in the course of his or her profession is loaned firearms from a person holding a federal firearms license (as a dealer, manufacturer or importer), for his or her research or evaluation, and has a current certificate of eligibility issued to him or her."

Does this mean we just need to ask to see their COE or get a business card or something? The further description in the link talks about firearm loans which doesn't apply in regards to ammo.

Penal Code 16410
As used in this part, “consultant-evaluator” means a consultant or evaluator who, in the course of that person’s profession is loaned firearms from a person licensed pursuant to Chapter 44 (commencing with Section 921) of Title 18 of the United States Code and the regulations issued pursuant thereto, for research or evaluation, and has a current certificate of eligibility issued pursuant to Section 26710.

An example of someone like this would be Chris Cheng who probably had a COE, AND was sponsored by Bass Pro, evaluated gun performance for Smith&Wesson and other manufacturers. Reported back on performance and or was paid to advertise or blog about the performance of the product.

So what credentials do we ask for? I know of Chris Cheng and have met him, but never knew he evaluated gun performance for S&W and other mfgs. Do we just need a COE and a business card?
