Happy New Year, California! As we step into 2026, several major firearm laws passed in 2025 are now taking effect — and some will continue rolling out over the next few months. CRPA is here to make sure you aren’t blindsided by the maze of new regulations lawmakers continue to push onto responsible gun owners. In this episode, Kevin is joined by attorney Matt Cubero, partner at Michel & Associates and author of the California Gun Laws book (now entering its 13th edition). Matt breaks down four major laws you need to understand as we move into 2026.
