Out of state family

[Garv]

There’s a “Itrafamilial Transfer” form on the CA DOJ website that I’ve used between myself and my son. We’re both here in California. It’s done online or mail it in with the required $check. It asks for your info and the gun info and who gave it to you. It ONLY works “Parent to Child” “Child to Parent” Grandparent to grandchild” “ Grandchild to grandparent”. Him being out of state is the sticky part. Is he bringing it to you and once you have it in your possession do you fill out the form. Someone who knows can hopefully chime in.

Must go through an FFL to transfer from out of state.

This only applies when both parties are CA residents.

If the parties are residents of different States, Federal laws requires the transfer be done through a FFL dealer in the recipient's State of residence. [18 USC 922(a)(3)&(5)]
Failure to utilize a FFL equates to a Federal felony for everyone involved with the transfer. [18 USC 924(a)(1)(D)]

So, the OR resident delivering the firearm directly to the CA resident and the CA resident submitting the CA DOJ form, means that both the OR resident and CA resident have committed Federal felonies and the CA DOJ form documents this criminal activity, which would make prosecution easier for the BATFE.
