CZ Pistols Face California Compliance Review: Temporary Sales Suspension Recommended

CZ Pistols Face California Compliance Review: Temporary Sales Suspension Recommended

CZ-USA recently alerted dealers and firearm enthusiasts about a potential compliance issue with six of its pistol models, manufactured by Ceska Zbrojovka (CZ) in the Czech Republic and imported to the United States. Changes in the production of these specific models could render them ineligible for California’s Handgun Roster unless the pistols undergo testing by a certified laboratory and receive approval from the California Department of Justice (DOJ).

Affected CZ Pistol Models

The models in question include the following SKUs:

The California Handgun Roster Requirement

California law mandates that semi-automatic handguns meet strict standards for safety and features, verified annually by certified laboratories. The California Handgun Roster, which is updated each year, includes handguns tested and found compliant with the state’s unique regulations, allowing them to be legally sold in the state. Once a year, all models on the Roster require re-testing and re-certification to remain eligible.

Why These Changes May Impact Compliance

CZ has modified the manufacturing process for certain models. Although CZ-USA has not explicitly stated that these models won’t undergo re-certification, CZ has proactively recommended suspending sales of these models in California until further notice from the DOJ. This precautionary measure aims to avoid potential compliance issues while awaiting further direction from the state.

Next Steps for California Dealers

CZ-USA suggests dealers pause sales of the affected models within California until a definitive ruling is provided. It remains unclear if or when these pistols will undergo the required testing and be re-added to the California Handgun Roster. California handgun buyers interested in these models should watch for updates from CZ-USA or the California DOJ on the status of these firearms.

Conclusion

This suspension is a precautionary step by CZ-USA in response to evolving production standards and California’s stringent firearm regulations.
