Legal way to buy a pistol in Ca not on their approved list
Hi
I don't know much about buying pistols not on the Ca. approved list in Ca. How do you do that? I read that you have to buy used from out of state and ship to a dealer to register. Is there any way to buy new ones as ship from out of state? Thanks |

I am not a lawyer or Calif resident but the way I understand it there are basically three ways.
1-Old gun previously on the register being resold 2-Gun purchased by LEO or other entitled entity being resold. 3-Gun brought in legally by a new resident who had purchased / owned it before relocating to CA and being resold. AFAIK, but could be wrong, you cannot simply buy out of state and ship in to FFL.

I want a new one, I don't want used one. That's the reason I ask. Like the Glock 43!!!

As I understand it, your options are as stated by cslinger, above. FYI: https://www.oag.ca.gov/firearms/cert...andguns/search

I suspect your option comes down to vote some folks out of office and repeal the laws.
Or get a good enough argument in the right court to overturn the laws. Perhaps get a local administration to pass a local law that "voids" the state law as the state "law" overrules Federal regulations on marijuana then become the test case.

Just a friendly reminder: This is the General Handguns discussion area, not Law & Civil Rights. The Firing Line doesn't engage in purely political discussion in any discussion area but some closely related mentions of politics are allowed in Law & Civil Rights. This discussion area is about handguns. The question for this thread was about buying certain handguns in California. The question has been answered, and the answer seems to have caused comments to veer in a political direction.
Closed.
