Question on CFLC system

[ptoguy2002]

If I already have a stripped receiver (already dros'd to me), and send it out of state to a builder to be built, does he need to do a CFLC to send it back to me?
Example, I send a PTR91 or Nodak Spud receiver with a parts kit to get built out of state.

I've read the faqs on the doj site, and it doesn't cover this scenerio. Is there an easy pointer somewhere that I can forward over?

thanks

PC 12072.1 (f) says (f) (1) (A) Commencing July 1, 2008, a person who is licensed
pursuant to Chapter 44 (commencing with Section 921) of Title 18 of
the United States Code may not deliver, sell, or transfer a firearm
to a person in California who is licensed pursuant to Chapter 44
(commencing with Section 921) of Title 18 of the United States Code
unless, prior to delivery, the person intending to deliver, sell, or
transfer the firearm obtains a verification number via the Internet
for the intended delivery, sale, or transfer, from the department. If
Internet service is unavailable to either the department or the
licensee due to a technical or other malfunction, or a federal
firearms licensee who is located outside of California does not
possess a computer or have Internet access, alternate means of
communication, including facsimile or telephone, shall be made
available for a licensee to obtain a verification number in order to
comply with this section. This subdivision shall not apply to the
delivery, sale, or transfer of a short-barreled rifle, or
short-barreled shotgun, as defined in Section 12020, or to a
machinegun as defined in Section 12200, or to an assault weapon as
defined in Sections 12276, 12276.1, and 12276.5.
You, I presume, are not licensed.

PC 12078 says (e) Section 12071, subdivisions (c) and (d) of Section 12072, and
subdivision (b) of Section 12801 shall not apply to the delivery of
a firearm to a gunsmith for service or repair, or to the return of
the firearm to its owner by the gunsmith.
so I'd say your situation looks like gunsmith work; there's no 'transfer' going on.

This is not you buying a firearm from out of state. You have sent your "gun" to a gunsmith and he will be sending it directly back to you.
