Single Shot Exemption Explanation/Database Thread

[seainc]

I like to know how to bring HK45 or P30 into CA as SSE-P or PPT? Thanks

Did you have a specific question? Because the original post explains how to exempt any type of gun. For PPTs the roster doesn't matter...

[seainc]

I figure it out. Thanks

Good, enjoy your new HK(s).

Hi All, Say I just purchased a Double Star 1911 that's going through the SSE from Table Rock Arms. I'm noticing some of the local FFL's who will be receiving the firearm want to charge me tax on the price of the firearm. Is this always the case? I don't recall paying any taxes with my normal FFL (don't want to mention names just in case I can get her in trouble) from out of state purchases.

Does anyone know of a place who doesn't charge taxes? It seems odd since the purchase was out of state and the FFL is just doing the registration portion.

they should NOT charge tax. they didnt sell you the gun. TRA sold it to you. educate them or go somewhere else.

Well actually Jet Guns sold it to me. I'm having it sent to TRA to do the SSE and then they are sending it to a local FFL. It sounds complicated but it was because of product availability.

The FFL is actually Rob Blank. Super nice guy. Mentioned that he has to charge taxes. Anyone know of someone else who won't charge me taxes. Kind of negates the perks of buying out of state if I still have to pay taxes here.

Have a look at this:

Sadly, all California dealers are now mandated to collect applicable tax. Any dealer not collecting tax is going to be personally liable for your tax obligation to Cali BOE.

Wow...I'm speechless. Why bother buying it out state then. Negates the whole value of buying out of state and saving the everyday man some $$$. Thanks for the information though.

California Compliance Kit $100
Shipping from seller to CA FFL $35
CA dealer transfer fee $50
DORS fee $30

Chance to own a MP5 clone pistol: Priceless

DROS is $25, not $30. Any FFL who claims it is anything other than $25 is violating the law.

He is wrong. either he is uneducated or ripping you off. I have done this a two places and talked to a third in SO Cal and none charge taxes on the gun. they charge tax on the tranfer fee. it was three bucks.

They're supposed to now... they're on the hook for them.

No, you are wrong. The FFL has been required to collect sales tax on the firearm for a long time. The FFL fee is only taxable IF the firearm is subject to sales tax.

There are many people speeding on the roads, that does NOT make it legal. You could call the CA BOE and ask and/or you can look at all the threads here, such as what is listed in the master FAQ in the FFL forum. The government wants money and is now pushing this issue.

It doesn't matter if the gun is new or not.

What is the law for this? In the past month I bought a new gun and had a gun PPT to me with no issues. Or do you mean buying a used gun from a dealer?
