Could be but my DL is current and Real plus I've bought plenty of guns here so it's a buck for me. What they also plan by July this year to do is lay another 10% excise tax on ammo and gun purchases. Time to stock up!Outdoor Life said the guy paid $10.
Other source:
"In a nutshell, all ammunition purchases or transfers made in California will require a DOJ “point-of-sale” eligibility check at the cost of $1 (or $19 – more on that later) paid by the consumer to the DOJ."

The proposed law would require a $1 BG check for Californians buying ammo who are on record as having bought a gun and their drivers license address matches the address where they last bought a gun. If there is no gun buy record the ammo buyer pays $19 for an ammo purchase BG check. The higher BG fee reflects the assumption by the state of California that they are buying ammo for a ghost gun.
And starting in 2025 they will limit all gun purchases to 1/month even if it's a private party sale. Right now it's 1/month only for retail purchases. Gonna be a busy year.
