By law, they are required to do PPTs.

If they are charging $20 for a PPT, that is illegal as the max fee is $10.

Must be a lot of FFLs breaking the law here. I've seen prices up to and over 75.00!

Remember a PPT is only between CA residents who visit the same FFL.

A lot of people think a PPT is anytime they buy something from an individual.

Someone asked if this list updated. It does not look updated to me, since most input occurred years ago. In Sacramento I have used three FFLs and paid from 75 to 30 usd. I just asked the guy with the great price of 30 if he minded me referring his service. Sadly no; he wants to retire and does not want a flood of business. So I wish guys will start re-naming FFLs again and their current prices for benefit of new folk, as well as making a reliable list that lets everybody shop around.

How is this not an illegal tax, similar to a poll tax? You know, what libs cry about when they claim that requiring someone to have a photo ID to vote is like an illegal poll tax,because the person may have to pay for a driver's license or other photo ID.

Guns Direct in Burbank is $80+Dros. Not sure if I can really do better considering the cost of gas both ways.

Also I'm new to CA but whats with the tax collection on transfers? How can they verify the amount of a private sale? Is there a way around it without too much hassle with the IRS?

I American Gun Works in Glendale is $75. for out of state. Guns Direct in Burbank is $89 for an out of state shipment.

PD Gun Supply and Tool. Sylmar

$50 first gun plus DROS for an out of state transfer.
Dimitry is a good to do business with.
I ordered multiple guns and it was a good transaction. FYI. You can put more than one gun on the DROS sheet for the same single DROS fee.
He's in Slymar near the border of San Fernando between the 5 and the 210 on Glenoaks blvd.
Recommended.

That is the way it works and if someone charges you more then $25 for the DROS when all are done at the same them, they are violating the law.

Each is a separate DROS, btw.

Checked with another dealer and he says the $25 is for filing the form. Not per gun DROSed on the form.
If someone wants to charge a fee per gun on top of the DROS fee, that's up to them but I don't believe the state requires it per the two dealers I talked to and they do a lot of these.
I think if the State of California was dinging them $25 per gun and they were only collecting $25 per form they would figure it out pretty quickly if they were wrong.

Each firearm is done on a separate DROS. There is only one charge of $25 for any number of DROS submitted at the same time. If you look at what I replied to, it was said that some seem to charge per firearm for the DROS, ignoring the FFL fee which can be whatever the FFL wants, other than for a PPT.

So you seem to be talking about something else that the subject that was brought up, but matching what I said.
