Glocks are among the many hottest handguns bought in California. Even former Vice President Kamala Harris owns one. However Californians will not be capable to purchase a brand new Glock gun within the state.

Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a invoice into legislation that bans the sale of latest Glock weapons in California.

At challenge, the brand new Glock design permits the gun to be simply modified with a Lego-sized piece of plastic often called a “Glock Change” that may be 3-D printed to show it into a completely computerized weapon.

Glock “switches” are already unlawful, however Democratic lawmakers in California went one step additional by passing a invoice alongside social gathering strains that outlaws the sale of any new gun with a Glock-like design. The brand new legislation doesn’t ban possession of Glocks, nor does it ban reselling used Glocks in California.

“They (Glock) have recognized about this design flaw for a very long time,” Gabriel mentioned to CBS Information California. “They may assist save lives.”

California is the third-largest U.S. marketplace for gun gross sales. Gun retailer proprietor Eddie Ford defined that, in contrast to another handguns, Glocks are designed to be customizable. He famous that the design of the Glock has remained the identical resulting from “its ultra-reliability.”

Newer fashions of Glocks do have an added piece that’s supposed to dam the Glock swap. However California’s lawyer common hasn’t authorized that mannequin on the market right here.

Ford acknowledged, realistically, somebody might simply file that added piece off in a couple of minute. 

Regardless of the brand new legislation, Ford mentioned that California gun shops like his will maintain promoting used Glocks, and he would not count on this invoice to scale back the variety of incidents the place Glock switches are used.

“As a result of there are nonetheless tens of millions of Glocks on the streets,” he mentioned. “If criminals need them, they will get them.”

Deborah Grimes misplaced her solely son, Greg “Najee’ Grimes, when he was shot seven occasions with a modified Glock. Najee was shot and killed in a downtown Sacramento nightclub in 2022. The gunman fired 11 speedy photographs right into a crowd, with seven hitting Najee.

“Had he been shot possibly as soon as, even twice, I really feel that he would have been in a position to survive that,” Grimes mentioned.  

Najee was a star soccer participant, a coach, and a mentor to particular wants children. He’s now the rationale for Deborah Grimes’ mission with the advocacy group Mothers Demand Motion.

It was the second mass taking pictures within the shadow of the California State Capitol in simply three months and one in all 55 statewide that yr.

The shooter used a Glock handgun, modified with a Glock Change.

“There was simply an excessive amount of harm as a result of that Glock ‘swap’ was a killing machine,” Grimes mentioned of her son’s taking pictures.  

Najee’s homicide garnered nationwide consideration, even being featured on “America’s Most Needed” whereas legislation enforcement officers have been nonetheless trying to find a suspect. Now, his mother hopes her advocacy could have a nationwide influence.

“I hope that Glock strikes ahead to make the (design) change,” Grimes mentioned. 

If Glock have been to revamp the gun, it might be bought in California once more. Nevertheless, the present design was grandfathered in earlier than California handed its stringent gun certification legal guidelines in 2001.  A brand new design must undergo a prolonged certification course of.   

AB 1127 was handed by the California legislature on a party-line vote, with all Republican assemblymembers in opposition. 

“By particularly focusing on the potential for modification, this invoice disproportionately impacts potential Glock purchasers and restricts entry to one of the well-liked handguns obtainable,” Republican lawmakers outlined of their evaluation of the invoice.  

Glock didn’t reply to a request for remark.
