Long term paid gun storage in CA?

[SharedShots]

Gun trust time.

Please explain

You create the trust, the trust owns the guns. You can put other folks on the trust. That way there's no transfer BS. I'd do it even if whoever I left it with had no access. Also, if you die your heirs have considerably less bs to deal with.

Then you've done this yourself and an attorney will stand behind the work after explaining that it will do what you think it does in California?

What does no transfer BS mean? Are you saying (and if not, please clarify) that with a gun trust, in California, you do not need to DROS the transfer of guns? Thats very interesting, are you absolutely sure it works that way?

AudioPhil has a gun storage facility in Arizona. I know he does this sort of service. It might be worth it just to let him do it. He's a very trustworthy member here.

No longer an option quoted in post#1

There's a sticky somewhere, but I can't find it. I'll keep looking.

I don't know where you are or if this is an option but they do provide gun storage. Their price sheet says 20 guns = $250/month...plus some expenses.

Assuming this is the going rate, OP would be looking at 3000-6000.

OP, is that amount worth it? If you’re collection has sentimental value, or is worth a lot of money, I guess it might be worth it. Otherwise, I’d start selling.

6-10 guns at that place is $100 a month. Maybe sell half; keep your favorite 10 and save a lot of money in storage.

Ignore DrewN. This is a no-go in CA.

Unless they are assault weapons, selling them to a trusted friend for in California via PPT is probabaly the easiest , cheapest way. Sell them for $1 each. Then in a few years, buy them back.

I'd do a indoor storage unit and hope for the best. I had a good sized unit for about a year I left a large supply of ammo in it they never knew I just buried it in the back

I had a securely locked storage unit broken into. The unit was in a gated compound. Fortunately, they got nothing of real value.

Do not store your guns in a storage unit.

Match Grade Gunsmiths in Cerritos offers pickup and storage for people on TROs. I was there when they were filling out the paperwork for somebody going through one but it was only for two guns. Try giving them a call.

I’ve stored my stuff at a commercial storage facility for 5 years. Gated, climate controlled, 3 stories, surveillance cameras interior and exterior, individual codes to get in and out. Brought my safes in under blankets, and contents in via boxes. Everything I bring in and out is in discreet cases. I chose a larger unit that I can step in and close the storage door. Safes are covered under a large canvas zip up so even if my door was open, no one can tell what it is.

Under CA laws/regulations...
1. A Trust can not legally own or possess registered assault weapons.
2. The transfer of a firearm between trustees of a trust is an operation of law transfer and must be reported to CA DOJ BOF, within 30 days, every time the firearm is transferred between the trustees.
