Co owning

[Dano3467]

Can two names be on one firearm. Kinda like w an auto, two names one full time driver one part time driver ? Like when you do a finance for someone.
Then add ''And OR ''

Thinking of my Grandson...

Im pretty sure you could "co own" the firearm with your grandson (meaning you both could use it) but I dont think the gun can be under two names at once.

Not sure about regular registration (eg; current handgun registration), but you were allowed joint registration with RAW's.

From the lack of responses I'd imagine that few have thought of this before...

4473 doesn't have room for multiple names. Dunno about dros

sent from my damn tappy device...

4473 is the back ground check form ?

Could two of these be made out for ONE firearm ? for multiple owners ?

Just don't know. Maybe the Librarian can chime in ...

Here's a Form 4473 with instructions. The space says 'Transferee's Full Name', no place for multiple names.

If you are thinking of you and your Grandson, then you can transfer a firearm between you at any instant as long as the Transferee's is not prohibited from owning the gun and the gun is not prohibited.

I haven't looked it up but what about a gun trust.

[Dano3467]

How does that work ?

A Gun Trust Thread

http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/showthread.php?p=9968039#post9968039

Seems like one the the Anti-Gun Bills proposed in the Legislature this session was trying to put the kibosh on gun trusts, I think it died in the last couple of months. You'll need to read some proposed gun bills and see if you can find it.


I only point the way, I don't do straight up answers. "Teach a man to fish" and so forth.

CaliforniaLiberal : thanks for the link---- I think.

It looks to be my question was MMMMM answered.

Just can't quite figure if I'm out of luck, confused, or have a ghost of a chance of this working out to a reasonable satisfaction on the issue...

Just buy two of the same gun. Keep one for yourself and give the other one to your grandson.

[Dano3467]

Phewww ; that was an easy fix...

But it doesn't take care of my stuff ?

Back to square one...
