The total state fee is $37.19. The DROS fee is $31.19 which covers the costs of the background checks and transfer registry. There is also a $1.00 Firearms Safety Act Fee, and a $5.00 Safety and Enforcement Fee.
The ammunition purchase also requires a background check so most people can no longer purchase ammunition on-line. There are exceptions which I will not list here. The fee is $1 for the BG check for each purchase. But there ae rumors they intend to raise and I have no doubt they will.
They also charge $25 for a Firearms Safety Certificate (FSC) to be able to buy a firearm and that you have to renew every 5 years.
It is unclear to me if they're raising the DROS/Transfer Fees even more but I would not be surprised. They need revenue from somewhere to fund free healthcare, subsidized housing, and other benefits for "newcomers" which will cost billions a year.
As conservative taxpayers and businesses leave the state, the number of households paying for all the socialism is dropping which is leading them to add and increase fees and taxes to those remaining. Less than 48% of households pay any income taxes at all. They now have program for many fees (such as electricity) to reduce costs for low-income households shifting the fee increases on to the middle class and above.
I just paid $4.259 a gallon for gas at CostCo (the least expensive place around). They plan to increase the tax by $0.50 a gallon each year starting in 2025 as they phase out fossil fuel vehicles all together by 2030. they are banning fossil tools such as chain saw, lawnmowers, bleaf blowers etc.
Seriously. I am not making this up. Gavin Newsom looked at Mauro's rampant Socialism in Venezuela and said "Hold my beer!"
