One time C&R

[Jalibass]

Correct. C&R handguns are exempt from the safe handgun Roster. Just find a local dealer who doesn't charge too much for transfers. Some charge $50 out the door, some charge $200 out the door. I'm happy when I can pay $70 for an out of state transfer. Make sure you verify what the total price will be, including the California DROS charge. And if the out of state seller is not an FFL make sure your local dealer will accept the shipment directly from a non-FFL. Some dealers have a policy of only accepting shipments from other FFLs. And if the out of state seller is an FFL, make sure they don't mind signing up for California's CFLC system before they ship the firearm.

Thank you so much for clarifying/ educating. Why couldn't I be into stamps?

Stamps? What are stamps? You mean like time stamps on emails?

I was hoping to find someone with a C&R who could accept the revolver over state lines and then "sell it" cash and carry to me. My understanding of what I read on DOJ website is this is legal as long as the C&R doesn't make a "business" of doing this for people. Was just wishing in one hand I guess, looks like the other is going to fill up first.

you're asking for someone to make a "straw purchase" for you. and that is illegal! you need a handgun safety certificate and a 01ffl to transfer it to you.

Thank you R5 for removing key points of Flyin Brian's post, adding the H.S.C. and calling it your own.
