Read the official explanation
This bill creates a sales tax exemption period for sales purchases of a firearm including ammunition, if the sales are made during the period surrounding Independence Day, as follows: if July falls on a Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday, beginning at 12:01 a.m. on July or the Friday preceding July 4, as applicable, and ending hours after the beginning; or if July falls on a Wednesday or Thursday, beginning at 12:01 a.m. on the Friday after July 4, and ending hours after the beginning. By operation of Code section 423.6, an item exempt from the imposition of the sales tax is also exempt from the use tax imposed in Code section 423.5.
