An interesting thing happened here in California, in 2014. Any gun purchased before that date is not in their new (then) electronic system. Whatever database existed before is non-existent, I guess. I had to register my .22 Carbine (AGAIN) that I bought in '02, and get a driver's license with a chip in it to buy ammunition. A one-time background check was conducted ($19). If I didn't want to do what was mentioned above, there would be a $19 background check every time I bought ammo. Now, it's just $1 for each purchase...when one can find ammo. One can be pretty much assured that there is a plethora of unregistered firearms in this state, and that people have cases and cases of ammunition purchased before this law was enacted...because they didn't re-register them. Crazy, to say the least.
