    SSE History?

    Out of curiosity...

    Who came up with the SSE concept?
    Who completed the first SSE DROS?

      Don't know who first postulated the idea of carefully reading the law and bending the tar out of it to make off-roster sales happen but God bless him.

            Not sure on exact details, but I believe the infamous Valkyrie Arms was one of the first to do SSE's for the general public, at least in northern CA. They opened in 2010 if I remember right and were doing SSE's fairly early in 2011.

              No idea who was the first, but here's a thread from 2009.

                Valkyrie was definitely really early into the SSE game. It was through them that I did my 1st SSE (Jan 2011). Had it sent to Straightline Tactical, which was one of the first places to accept HGs that were in single-shot configuration. I think my 2nd was through Table Rock, this time sent into Riflegear (this was way before they did their own SSE). I remember in early 2011 calling around to find out who did SSE in SoCal, and I was told by certain forum vendors (who now do SSE) that I was crazy to SSE something, that I was clearly breaking the law and they would have nothing to do with it. EBR Works was one of the first to do SSE in the LA area, I remember people from San Diego would come up all the way to Ventura County for their SSE needs!

                        Wrong. Chuck Norris doesn't need SSE. CA DOJ conformes to Chuck Norris.

                            These are nice scopes - ProStaff that is; not the Prostate.

                              The law was written allowing Single Shot handguns to be exempt from the roster when the roster was written. I know that I bought a Single Shot Exempt handgun in 2002 but, there were others before me.
