California – Peace Officer Exemption
In California, all ammunition shipments must be delivered to a licensed vendor for in-person pickup unless the buyer qualifies for an exemption under California Penal Code § 30352(e)(8).
Sworn peace officers may qualify for direct residential delivery if they provide:
- A valid law enforcement credential
- Written certification from their agency head authorizing the purchase for official use (e.g., duty, training, credentialing)
The certification must be current (typically valid for 30 days) and must specify the ammunition is for official use.
If documentation is not provided, all California shipments must go to a licensed ammunition vendor.
