The California Senate approved the Lifesaving Intelligent Firearms Enforcement (LIFE) Act, a package of seven gun control bills aimed at tightening the state's regulation of firearms.

The most lively debate centered around a bill requiring buyers to obtain a permit, which must be shown for every ammunition purchase.

The package of bills approved also includes:

- Prohibiting detachable magazines in semiautomatic rifles

- Expanding the list of offenders banned from owning a gun

- Barring the possession of large-capacity magazines that hold more than 10 rounds
