If its already in CA, I think you can pick it up and fill out the Intrafamilial Handgun Transaction Report Form from the CA DOJ, pay $19 and you would be good to go. If it out of CA, it has to be shipped to an FFL who will DROS it to you. But they need to know how to do intrafamilial interstate transfers so it bypasses the roster. You would need an HSC in either case I believe.

Find an FFL near you who is knowledgeable, this shouldn't be a problem. OC Armory is one of the best is you're near them

12078...

I inherited my Grandpa's Colt Gold cup national match mark IV series 80 .45 and I don't see it on the ca roster and I no idea where he got it or when. How do I register it? I'd hate to lose it

CaliB&R has it. *

Inheritance bypasses the Roster - file the OPLAW form and you're done - you don't even need to wait for an acknowledgment.

* except the out of CA part - see http://wiki.calgunsfoundation.org/in...and_Interstate

No flames. But at Calguns, we consistently advise people to follow the laws as they exist. Please keep that in mind for future posts.

Thanks for the help guys

We'd like to see pictures, when you get it!

Fill out the OPLAW form, put "Inherited" in the "how aquired" box, pay your $19 and your GTG.

If the 1911 was inherited because of Grandpa's Death and you're receiving it because of an operation of law (will, probate process, etc) then you can simply go get it wherever it is. Intestate secession/bequest is one of the few ways that you can receive a firearm from another state without involving an FFL. Seriously. When you get home, fill out the op-law form, send in the $19 with it, and you're done. In states that do not require an FFL for in-state PPT or any sort of registration, you wouldn't even need to do that... although having something on hand (document) stating how you received the firearm would be a good idea in those states.

This is one of those roster-exempt transfers. Just don't import an AW rifle/pistol/shotgun until the AW laws die... even if you inherit them.

Understood and expected. Thus the flame comment.

Thanks for the correction, I thought interstate always needed to go through the FFL. Now I know, and knowing is half the battle.
