CR&COE privileges

[juljam88]

I'm having some difficulty getting a clear answer. I understand about CR rifles, but can I or can I not get a CR handgun sent to me WITHOUT going through an FFL dealer here in California? That's, of course, if I have a CR and COE.

No, you can not have it shipped directly to you in California.You need to have it sent to a FFL, you are exempt from the waiting period so you can pick it up when it arrives.

You can buy it out of state and bring it back with you. But you need to purchase it in person out of state to do that.

Pretty straight forward answers here. Thanks guys for the PC quotes.

I need to get this for the ammo perks, I haven’t the space to start reloading at the moment
