Auction Hunters

[GrinderCB]

I've been watching "Auction Hunters" which is now in its second season. It's the one with the two guys who bid on and buy abandoned storage units and flip the stuff they find. Frequently they find guns and I was wondering how the transfer goes with firearms acquired in this fashion. Obviously it isn't cash and carry on the non-antiques like it's portrayed on the show, but is there a DROS process between the storage unit owner and the buyers, or a special form or what?

Tonight they got an early-1900's Derringer and one of those squeeze-cockers that fires by squeezing your fist, made in the mid-1800's. In the past they've found modern rifles and shotguns, antique breach-loaders, and once they cut open a locked safe and got a Walther P7, so it does vary quite a bit.

Im not familiar with the show but is it even based in CA? Because if not then other states do things a bit differently....

There's another thread here on the same thing essentially. A lot happens that they don't show on the show, it'd be a waste of time and everyday folk would be bored as ish. I'm sure they do all the dros and stuff but just make it seem like you can find/sell a gun which is dumb and really misinforming the public.
