In this June 11, 2019, file photo, Chris Puehse, owner of Foothill Ammo, displays .45-caliber ammunition for sale at his store in Shingle Springs, Calif. An appeals court on Friday, April 24, 2020, has reinstated a California law requiring background checks for people buying ammunition, reversing a federal judges decision to stop the checks that he said violate the constitutional right to bear arms. The law, which took effect last July, requires Californians to pass an in-store background check before buying ammunition, which involves running buyers names through a California Department of Justice database that tracks legal purchases of guns.
