    DROS for long gun

    When one buys a long gun, once the DROS process has started, is that particular long gun registered to the buyer (but DROS does not require serial number for long guns)?
    "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

    Could it be any clearer? Any law that infringes on our right to keep and bear arms is a violation of the Second Amendment and is unconstitutional.

      long guns are not registered.
      "The gun has played a critical role in history...an invention that has been both praised and denounced...served hero and villain alike...and carries with it moral responsibility. To better understand the gun is to better understand history."

          I would imagine so, after all you as a buyer have to verify the serial number when you pick up the weapon, and your name is all over the paperwork. Now, there might not be any "official" registration that goes beyond the FFL or dealer until 2014, but there is a paper-trail...


          I don't always save the world, but when I do, it's in 24 hours or less...

              The 4473 has the full info, but absent any bizarre behavior by BATF, that's where that paper stays.

              No S/N, caliber, make, model info goes to Sac until 2014.

              Frozen in 2015, it is falling out of date and I can no longer edit the content. But much of it is still good!

                  Regarding the paper-trail that goes to Sac in 2014, is this for new PPT's or will existing (pre-2014) PPT info be sent to Sac?

                      That info has not been collected before for DROS; that starts 2014. (And, since DROS is submitted electronically, it isn't really a 'paper' trail any more, though I guess FFLs keep copies.)

                          Would there be any issues selling a long gun via PPT to another private party that was originally purchased from a different private party without a PPT? I'm thinking no since there was no original record of serial numbers in the first place, right? this happened before I moved to CA

                              Except that it isn't wise to talk about transfers 'without benefit of FFL' unless you explain the circumstances - 'this was before 1991' or 'this happened before I moved to CA' - no, no issue.
