Gun owners in California will see new laws go into effect in 2018 affecting assault weapons owners and how ammunition can be purchased.
Beginning Jan. 1, Californians can no longer order ammunition online and have it delivered to their home.
All ammunition has to be purchased through a state licensed firearms dealer, said Patrick Jones of Jones Fort gun shop in Redding.
While the end of online ammo purchasing begins in 2018, a second ammunition restriction kicks in beginning in 2019 when ammunition purchasers must pass a background check to buy bullets and shotgun shells.
Another law — referred to as the "bullet button ban" — also goes into effect this year. People who own assault rifles with magazines that detach with a bullet button are required to register their guns with the state Department of Justice by the end of June.
