I NEED SOME HELP WITH SHIPPING

[JOHNNYBOY1937]

HEY EVERYONE, I'M JOHNNY AND I JUST JOINED CALGUNS.NET.

I NEED SOME INFORMATION, SO IF YOU GUYS COULD PLEASE HELP ME OUT, I WOULD APPRECIATE IT...

A BUDDY OF MINE IS VISITING OUT IN NORTH DAKOTA AND FOUND A COACH DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN FOR ME IN A GUN STORE.. I THINK IT IS WITHIN THE CALIFORNIA GUIDE LINES , AS FAR AS BARREL SIZE AND OVERALL SIZE MATTERS (BUT I'M NOT FOR SURE). CAN HE SHIP IT TO ME FROM NORTH DAKOTA TO LOS ANGELES WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS?? AND IF SO, WHAT DO YOU GUYS RECOMMEND?

ALSO, WOULD IT BE BETTER TO BUY ONE IN LOS ANGELES OR CALIFORNIA SO I DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH ANY ISSUES?? I WANT A 12 GAUGE 18 INCH OR LESS, DOUBLE BARREL.. THANKS.

Support CA buy local. Plus even if you find it cheaper out of state the transfer fee's will more than likely kill that deal.

Turn of the caps and check out Big 5, I think they have them on sale again. It will cost price+tax+$25 for dros.

Welcome to Calguns!

Regarding the shipping of the gun, it would have to go from North Dakota to an FFL in California. He can't just ship it to you. They you would have to register the shotgun and wait your 10 days.

Fees you would be looking at would be a transfer fee from the receiving FFL (anywhere from 50-250 from what I've herd) then you would be looking at DROS another 25 bucks).

I would suggest if you're just looking for an average, nothing special coach gun to go to Big 5 and pick one up there... It would be simpler and cheaper.

just my 2cents,

Good luck and again, welcome

Less than 18 inch = no go

Thank you for the replies. I found out that the coach gun is a Stoeger with a 18 barrel. I would rather buy it here in Ca., and not have to deal with the shipping and extra costs...

Would I be able to purchase the same shotgun here in Los Angeles (California)?

yes 18 inch barrel is the minimum barrel length for a shotgun. Most likely all youll find is 18 1/2 inch barrels. i think they add in that extra 1/2 inch for safety. but as long as the gun is a overall length of ( I believe 28 inches might be 26 but I cant remember) and a barrel length of 18 you're good to go.
