Ugh. Seriously California.

Seriously. Screw you. All I want is an inexpensive compact revolver that is still good quality. Apparently there are no good used revolvers in this state. Colt, S&W, Ruger, all of them have nice compact pocket revolvers...that aren't on the list. The roster needs to die. Thank you, and have a pleasant tomorrow.

Just so we're clear, I'm talking about used $300ish pistols. I don't want to pay $500 and have it shipped to me and have to pay a ridiculous amount for a transfer fee.

I feel your pain. The only advice I can give ( which I am sure you have already thought of) is to post a WTB add on multiple boards for the gun your looking for and hope a LEO or previous owner has one and is willing to sell it. Good luck on your search.

It's not exactly a snub but there was a 3" SecSix up for $350 earlier this morning >.>

I feel your pain. Watch the sales forum here like a hawk. It's the best you can do.

Thankfully if you find them used in CA the Roster actually doesn't apply to PPT's so..... keep looking!

I bought a new S&W 642 for $375 two weeks ago from a gunshop. It will come around.

Your only options are: Move out of CA, protest the roster or deal with it.

[Spiggy]

buy a WW1-WW2 era automatic pocket pistol, some of those things can be found for as little as $200

Charter arms snubby?

The hunt is half the fun.

[NorcalGSG]

Yea, what about the good old days. Hate that roster!!!!!!!! and the AW ban, all of them!!!!!!!!!!

[Jonathan Doe]

Maybe, I guess we are lucky that we can still have some guns.

[jazman]

I have a S&W 642 no lock snub, love it. Why don't you buy one of those?

[Lucky Scott]

Wow, Lighten up a little.
Lots of guns out there, just look around. It's called supply and demand.

Find a good FFL that only deals in transfers, then watch the classifieds in the Ruger.net and smith-wessonforum.com forums. You can find great deals, but if you are looking for something specific, your best bet may be specific forums.
