Important Question about California and C&R

budmott

At least it is important to me, since its my you know what.
I sold a CZ-27 on Gunbroker this week. Today the money
order and C&RFFL arrive, so far so good. But, the address
is to California. Now can I sell to this buyer since it is
C&R to C&R and an old WWII pistol?
I like where I am at, don't want to go to California.
Thanks as always,
Bud

Over the last hour I've been doing some research and from what I see in Fed. Reg. and Cal. law concerning transfer, you can mail it free of any trepidation. Here's a good site for state laws www.nraila.org click research on home page and you can search by state. Useful if you're going to be selling on the auction.

You cannot legally transfer the handgun to a California resident. California only allows C&R license holders to receive rifles and shotguns that are over fifty years old from another C&R license holder or individual. All other transfers must go through a dealer. Empire Arms has a good summary of the California C&R regulations on their web site. Go to http://www.empirearms.com and see the special rules for California C&R licensees that is on the left side under frequently asked questions.

The way I read it is that a firearm MUST be 50 yr. old to be exempt from dealer transfer laws. The CZ27 was not made after 1950.

It also states that it must be a firearm that cannot be readily concealed on the person, in other words, a rifle or shotgun.

Yep, it does.
