It depends on the type of LEO involved and on the conditions under which the LEO acquired the firearm being transferred.

See AB 2165 (with particular attention to new PC section 32000(c)(1)) for the details: https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/f...01520160AB2165

Actually, i'd argue it only depends on the conditions of acquisition.

Notwithstanding Section 26825, a person licensed pursuant to Sections 26700 to 26915, inclusive, shall not process the sale or transfer of an unsafe handgun between a person who has obtained an unsafe handgun pursuant to an exemption specified in paragraph (6) of subdivision (b) and a person who is not exempt from the requirements of this section.

An FFL should be able to process transfers of off-roster pistols from peace officers specified in (b)(6) as long as those firearms were not procured using the exemption.

Examples might include (b)(6) officers who acquire off-rosters through intrafamilial transfers, consignment, PPTs from individuals, or other pistols owned prior to this "legislative clarification."

Don't go to iron sights in Oceanside. They won't allow it. Gave me some run around in a similar scenario. FFL fud. They claim any Leo to civilains PPT is a transfer of an unsafe firearm. I just stopped going they for any reason...

Good call that you stopped going there. There is no restriction on the ability of originally covered LEOs to transfer via PPT off-roster handguns to non-exempt folks. The PPT restrictions only apply to the newly exempted classes of LEOs.

Sounds like your FFL didn't take the time to read the new law.

I'm just being pedantic over the type of LEO part of your post.

The way I read the statue it only matters if the firearm was acquired via the exception, no matter if the seller is currently or was previously under (b)(6).



Also, when did you go gold??? Is that new???

I read it slightly differently. If the seller was an originally covered LEO, then the weapon can be transferred via PPT.

If the seller is a newly covered LEO, and the seller acquired the weapon via the exemption, then the weapon cannot be transferred via PPT.

And yes, after many years of using the forum, I finally decided it was past time that I should contribute. Just happened a couple of days ago.
