Unless you buy from another CA resident, not an FFL; that's a "PPT" and is exempt from 1 in 30 -- UNLESS that FFL you use (since 1991, nearly all transfers must use an FFL) is within the City of Los Angeles, which has its own 1-in-30 law.ARCHIVED Calguns Foundation Wiki here: http://web.archive.org/web/201908310...itle=Main_Page
Frozen in 2015, it is falling out of date and I can no longer edit the content. But much of it is still good!Comment

Yes this ^^^^^^^^ and soon it will be rifles and shotguns too!!!!"A free people ought to be armed" George Washington, 1790
"Don't fire unless fired upon. But if they mean to have war, let it begin here" Capt. John Parker, 19 April 1776, Lexington GreenComment

The 1 in 30 is especially painful on Black Friday.Comment

City of LA, 1 every 30 days no matter the source.
Outside City of LA, 1 every 30 days from FFL stock or FFL transfer.
No limit to face to face PPT.- Rich

There's the PPT exemption from the one a month limit and also there is the exemption for C&R handguns that are more than 50 years old if you have both a COE and a C&R type 3 FFL. This is also exempt from the 10 day waiting period.
COE = Certificate of Eligibility.
Public Where do I find laws regarding the possession of firearms? I'm not sure whether I have a California record that would prevent me from owning/possessing a firearm. Is there a way to find out before I attempt to purchase one? What is the process for purchasing a firearm in California? How can I obtain a Carry Concealed Weapon (CCW) license? Can I give a firearm to my adult child? Can he/she give it back to me later? Can I give a firearm to my spouse or registered domestic partner? Can he/she give it back to me later?
I am a collector of firearms and I want to purchase a pair of consecutively-numbered pistols. Is there an exemption from the one-handgun-per-30-day restriction for curio or relic collectors?
Yes, but it applies only to the acquisition of curio & relic firearms and you must have a valid federal Curio & Relic Collector's license and a valid Certificate of Eligibility.Better Way to Search CalGuns - https://www.google.com/cse/home?cx=0...78:pzxbzjzh1zk

I also think there is a restriction on private party handgun sellers of 4 per year?If you find yourself in a fair fight, you're doing it all wrong.
