Gun and Ammo Transfers

[SRedmon]

Firearms

Transfers

Transfers are considered to be firearms that are shipped into our Federal Firearms License (FFL) from another location. They can be shipped from either another licensed dealer or a private individual.

All transfers MUST Be CA Legal when they arrive. Ammo Brothers can not modify any firearms to make them compliant or legal.

Handguns must either be on the CA DOJ Roster of Approved Firearms or be exempt from the roster.

Fees and conditions:
Incoming transfers are $75.00 + $37.19 DROS (CA Background Check) + CA Sales Tax (If applicable). If more than 1 firearm is being transferred, each additional firearm is $20 + CA Sales Tax (If applicable). Any products left unclaimed after 30 days will be charged a $50/month storage fee. After 180 days the item(s) will be considered to be abandoned.

All transfers from licensed dealers must have a CA Firearm Shipment Approval number. Any firearm received without an approval number will be returned at the buyers expense. Transfers from private individuals are exempt from CA Firearm Shipment Approval and CA sales tax. All firearms received from a private individual MUST have a clear copy of the sellers ID included in the box.


Private Party Transfers

A Private Party Transfer (PPT) is a transaction between two separate individuals both residing in CA with valid CA identification (Driver's License or ID Card). Both the buyer and seller MUST be present in the store at the same time for this type of transaction.

Fees and conditions:
The state fee for a PPT is $47.19. If more than 1 firearms is being transferred, each additional is $10. Any products left unclaimed after 30 days will be charged a $50/month storage fee. After 180 days the item(s) will be considered to be abandoned.

If the buyer in the PPT is denied, the firearm will be returned to the seller (pending a DOJ background check). Buyers and sellers in this situation must come to a mutual agreement regarding refunds or other arrangements as Ammo Brothers will not be involved in your private transactions.

Ammunition

Transfers

Transfers are considered to be ammunition that is shipped into our Ammunition Vendor License from another location. It can be shipped from either another licensed dealer or a private individual.

Fees and conditions:
Ammunition transfers are $50 for up to 5000 rounds + DROS (CA Background Check). Any amount of ammunition over 5000 rounds is an additional $50 per 5000.

The DOJ offers two background checks for ammunition. One is instant and costs $1. The instant check confirms your current information matches a registered firearm in California. If you have not registered a firearm with the state since 2015, you may not be eligible for this type of background check.
The second option is a complete background check and doesn't require you to have a registered firearm or for your current address to match a registered firearm. This can take up to 30 days for the DOJ to complete and costs $19.
Any products left unclaimed after 30 days will be charged a $50/month storage fee. After 180 days the item(s) will be considered to be abandoned.
