Zip guns are NOT generally prohibited in California.

  1. True

  2. False

The correct answer is: False

This statement is incorrect. The possession or manufacture of a zip gun is considered a felony offense in California and is clearly stated under Penal Code section 33600. However, there are some exceptions for law enforcement or military personnel. Additionally, zip guns also violate federal law and they are not approved by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Therefore, the statement is not true and zip guns are generally prohibited in California.
