I received the following e-mail from SGammo today:
The SGAmmo Targeted Newsletter is a custom tailored email to you based on your order history at SGAmmo. This particular email is for California clients in general. Due to recent laws passed in CA there will be heavy restrictions on sales of ammunition starting January 1st, 2018 which will make getting ammunition very difficult for most clients. We read this law in detail and the law requires that delivery be made by Dec 31st 2017. To meet the delivery deadline in compliance with the law we will accept orders from all CA clients until 2pm PST December 21st, which will allow delivery via UPS to all parts of CA by the 31st. After that point we will require clients in CA to upload a picture of the FFL of the dealer that will receive and transfer the ammo, or a C&R type FFL and COE from the state, or a law enforcement ID in conjunction with another state ID. The shipping address must match the address shown on the documents / IDs.
Below is a link to the full details of the law and a portion of the law that states delivery must be made before the end of the year.

(b) Commencing January 1, 2018, the sale, delivery, or transfer of ownership of ammunition by any party may only occur in a face-to-face transaction with the seller, deliverer, or transferor, provided, however, that ammunition may be purchased or acquired over the Internet or through other means of remote ordering if a licensed ammunition vendor initially receives the ammunition and processes the transaction in compliance with this section...
For everyone that does not qualify or does not want to deal with the hassle it would be very wise to stock up while it is still easy. If I were a Californian I would be looking to stock up on ammo before the deadline, and the items listed below would be my choices for bulk ammo considering both good value and quality. I would also advise clients to look at their needs for less common calibers that could be harder to find once the law kicks in.
