I would just go to the FFL and sell it to the new buyer. No biggie. California would love for that handgun to go from a status of un-traceable to one that is. Same thing happens when you sell a gun that has passed to relatives from relatives with no papers. Your friend could have had it given to him by his parent for example, As you stated the original purchaser is passed. Nothing to be scared of here IMO. After the new buyer does the DROS process and waits his ten days, it will be a legally held handgun in CA.

This^^^^

You or your friend could list the gun for sale in the Marketplace; find a buyer, show up at a local FFL and sell it via Private Party Transfer. The CDOJ will automatically register the weapon to the new buyer while checking him out during the 10 day wait. All the seller will need (you or your friend) is a California Drivers license or ID card. Nobody 'back checks' the previous owner (s) of the gun. I've sold guns that were not registered to me or sold for a friend. There are plenty of legal unregistered handguns in California and no law that they be registered.

Also, the buyer pays the $35 DROS fee.

Keep in mind, no magazines over 10 rounds and no assault weapons.

when i called turners they said they would not do a transfer on a previously unregistered handgun?? they said they might seize it if he starts the process? does that make any sense?

Please IGNORE advice from a $11 per hour Counter Jockey at a Gun store.

Gawd..these people are full of it.

The problem is your big mouth. Keep it shut, show up with your ID and sell the gun. DON'T try to sell the gun to TURNERS. You will get low-balled (about half price) .

Just list the weapon in the MARKETPLACE below. (firearms for sale)

PLEASE read the RULES of the Marketplace before posting a for sale thread.

Find a buyer, agree to meet at a mutual FFL location and STFU.
