BILL NUMBER:  SB 567
  VETOED	DATE: 10/11/2013




To the Members of the California State Senate:

I am returning Senate Bill 567 without my signature.

Current law defines assault weapon to include any shotgun with a
revolving cylinder.  In modifying the definition of shotgun to
include certain rifles with a revolving cylinder that can fire both
shotgun and rifle cartridges, this bill bans a small group of
specialty rifles with no identified impact on public safety.

I am not convinced that this amendment is necessary or justified at
this time.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
