I thought there were two lists that had to be consulted for a gun to be legal.
The EOPS roster is the only legally defined list. But that covers a different
set of regs, and has nothing to do with the smoke/mirrors/snake oil
act that is the Attorney Generals consumer safety regulations.
Basically these regulations are poorly written to the extent that the AG
can wage legal wars against any manufacturer that he thinks is selling guns
here which do not comply with his regulations. There is NO certification
to get them past the AG. That end of a manufacturers effort is a
"best effort" deal based on what some lawyers at the manufactrers
end think they can get away with, and possibly involves feedback from the
AGs office... but I dont think they get any feedback at all, personally. I think
it's really just a black hole. The only way to see if your gun passes
the AGs regs here after it's on the EOPS list, is to attempt to sell it and see if
the AG bitches about it. There is no possibility of "clearing" the gun with
the AG ahead of everything else, because he doesn't respond to inquiries
if at all. My belief is that this behavior is intentional. He wants
manufacturers to get dissuaded and pissed off at trying to sell guns
here.
