Selling Python

[highpower]

After much soul searching, I have decided to sell my Colt Python. My question is: since it was produced in 1964 and it is by Federal law a C&R, can I sell it to someone in the PRC without falling afoul of the stupid list?

I bought it when I still lived behind the liberal curtain, but have since moved to the free state of Nevada. I still feel some loyalty to Calgunners and would like to give someone there the change to buy it before I list it locally.

I believe as of 1/1/14, the C&R cash/carry option went away and an FFL is now required. I'm sure others will chime in to confirm/clarify.

SAE my work, others may know better on this, Idk for sure, but seems right.

I believe C&R handguns are exempt from the roster....but still need to go through FFLs. Long guns are exempt and do not need to go through FFLs.

That's how I read it

So, if you come to Orange County, hit me up for a crack at it!

I know that any handgun will still have to go through a FFL, I was just curious as to whether I could even legally sell it in the PRC.

[Galt]

Yes. PPT are exempt from the safe handgun roster.

C&R handguns are exempt from the roster.

Effective January 1, 2001, no handgun may be manufactured within California, imported into California for sale, lent, given, kept for sale, or offered/exposed for sale unless that handgun model has passed firing, safety, and drop tests and is certified for sale in California by the Department of Justice. Private party transfers, curio/relic handguns, certain single-action revolvers, and pawn/consignment returns are exempt from this requirement.

Excellent! That is the info I was looking for. Now to post up the FS add.

But if you are not a CA resident and the revolver is out of state (Nevada?), only way to sell it in CA is through SAE (single action exemption). Not something I'd be too fond of doing to a classic Python.

Exactly my thoughts.

I think if you have some documentation that it was built in 1964 or prior, it meets the C&R exemption(50 or more years old.)
That means it can be shipped to Ca. and purchased. That is my understanding of the law.

Yes,and if it is indeed 50+ years old it does NOT need a SAE. Pete

C&R long guns have to go through an FFL. The law changed.

[Erion929]

Also, it is my understanding (as told by 2A Zone), that if an FFL is involved in a transfer you have to pay SALES TAXES

Is that correct?

[highpower]

To answer some of the questions.

Yes it is definitely over 50 years old so is a C&R and does not fall under all that roster nonsense.

Yes when it is received into the PRC system sales tax will have to be paid.
