THE BIOFIRE SMART GUN ADDED TO THE CALIFORNIA HANDGUN ROSTER AND APPROVED WITH AN INTEGRATED FIREARM SAFETY DEVICE

February 6, 2025

  • The Biofire Smart Gun has been added to the California Hand Gun Roster
  • Biofire is approved as an integrated Firearm Safety Device

BROOMFIELD, Col., Feb. 6, 2025 Biofire is proud to announce that its groundbreaking Smart Gun has been officially added to California's Department of Justice Handgun Roster and has been approved as an integrated Firearm Safety Device.

This milestone paves the way for California residents to purchase and own the Biofire Smart Gun and be compliant with current California safe storage laws. The Smart Gun’s approval as an integrated Firearm Safety Device allows for storage without having to put it into a safe or using another lock if there is an authorized user enrolled. Biofire encourages owners to always use safe firearms practices, and to enroll into their Smart Gun as soon as possible after receipt.

To be included on California’s Handgun Roster, the Biofire Smart Gun underwent rigorous testing to meet the state’s stringent safety and performance standards. The approval process required multiple production samples of the firearm to pass a series of demanding evaluations, including drop tests, firing tests, and assessments of its integrated firearm safety device. These tests ensured that the Smart Gun functions reliably under various conditions while maintaining its innovative biometric security features. Biofire’s successful completion of these assessments highlights the company’s commitment to delivering a firearm that not only meets but exceeds industry safety requirements.

Biofire is an advocate for innovation in firearm safety technology. The approval of the Biofire Smart Gun represents a positive step toward regulators embracing technological advancements that enhance safety without limiting gun owners’ rights to choose the firearm that is right for them.
