Filing out ownership record.

[jptsr1]

Quick question about filling out the Cali Ownership record. How accurate does one need to be as to the date of purchase? I know where i purchased each of my pistols but I've long since lost the receipts for a couple of them. Do i need the exact dates?

There is no requirement to fill out the DOJ's ownership record. It's just to help you if you want. I keep my own recordc.

If you're talking about the personal importer form for moving to the state, that's different.

yes, that is what i am talking about. maybe i am filling out the wrong form. i followed the link from a thread here on this site.

(edit)

I see i put the wrong name but I'm talking about the right form. My question is about the California new resident hand gun ownership report.

Never mind i got the answer. Just in case anyone does a search looking for the same info. I called the CA BoF and was told that the date need not be exact. Apparently there is only an issue if the gun was purchased relatively recently (like in the last few weeks) and then you moved to CA. I'm not exactly sure why. You can contact the BoF here for further clarification
