Might San Francisco get a copy of handgun registrations and send police door-to-door to confiscate weapons?

I don’t know. For any confiscation to happen, the ballot initiative would have to be approved, San Francisco would have to defend its ordinance successfully in court, and it would have to obtain somehow the list of handgun owners, possibly over the state’s objection. I would note that the San Francisco Chronicle reported in 2003 that California state officials were apparently misusing federal databases to hunt down Californians who may have bought guns in other states and brought them in.
