Before transferring a firearm, what must the seller ensure the recipient has?

  1. A valid hunting license

  2. Proof of residence in California

  3. A Firearm Safety Certificate

  4. A special endorsement from local law enforcement

The correct answer is: A Firearm Safety Certificate

The correct answer is that the seller must ensure the recipient has a Firearm Safety Certificate. This certificate is a requirement in California that demonstrates the recipient has completed a firearm safety training course. It indicates that the individual understands safe handling, storage, and use of firearms, which is crucial for responsible gun ownership. While a valid hunting license or proof of residence in California may be relevant in certain contexts, they are not mandatory for all firearm transfers. Similarly, a special endorsement from local law enforcement is not typically required for private firearm sales. The emphasis on the Firearm Safety Certificate underlines California's commitment to promoting safety and responsible ownership practices among gun owners.
