So I have some off roster guns I want to sell but they all have standard capacity mags. In the past, the mags were broken down and sold as parts but California just shut that down. I could sell them without the mags but then how would the buyer perform the irrelevant gun handling check. I guess blocking the mags would be a solution but what if the buyer backs out? I don't want to be stuck with blocked mags. Man, it's so hard being a law abiding citizen.

The FFL can do the safe handling check when the buyer picks up. So DROS the gun and once you have the $$ in your hand, mail the buyer the blocked mags. Irritating, but not that big a deal.

That's the buyer's problem as long as you state no mags. Or you can block just one. If buyer A backs out, you'll likely need one for buyer B. If Buyer B is an LEO, then "Man do I have a deal for you!".My Marketplace Feedback: https://www.calguns.net/forum/market...k#post54003245Comment

Could you list them as parts and packaged separately?
"gun includes 2 magazine bodies, two springs, 2 followers...."
Or are individual parts a capital crime now as well."Hence it happened that all the armed prophets conquered, all the unarmed perished." - Niccolo MachiavelliComment

I would buy a ten round mag to include with each gun I wanted to sell, and price accordingly. The prospective buyer will understand, and probably appreciate not having to hunt for one before shooting it.sigpic

That sounds more like a suggestion.
I would plug them with a wood plug and some hot-glue. The buyer can replug it to his satisfaction afterwards.
It's difficult to sell a gun without mags and at least one mag is needed to do the safe handling test.Comment

Absolutely not my intent.
I was simply making and observation. If you lost a 5round magazine and someone found it, would you or the person that found it have committed any crime?
In no way am I suggesting anyone should violate any law.
