    Linda now lives in CA about 100. Miles from me. I no longer Drive as I am hitting up there.but my daughter has a N.C. D

    I suggest you post this question in the “How California laws affect me” forum as a separate thread.You’ll get more people looking and able to give you a good answer.

    Good luck, sounds like a nice heirloom.

      Handgun transfers must go through an FFL in the state of residence of the receiver.

      Cousin can visit you in NV, go to an FFL and make the transfer there; OR, she can have it shipped to your choice of NV FFL (be sure to talk to the FFL first) and do the transfer that way.

      Any kind of 'family' relationship means nothing to the Feds.

      C&R - which the gun almost certainly would be - also has no application in this situation, as narrated.

      Frozen in 2015, it is falling out of date and I can no longer edit the content. But much of it is still good!

        The easiest would be to use the fact that it is most likely a C&R.

        An interstate transfer is going to cost at least $50. That's counting the cost of the background check and the dealer's fee.

        A C&R FFL is only $30. Once he has his C&R his cousin can come visit him in NV and just give it to him.

        Here is the application for the c&r FFL.



        The only other thing he would need is an Acquisition and Disposition book. Which can be found for free online.

        Yes you can have 2 C&R 03 FFL's; 1 in California and 1 in a different state.

            I know that. I even mentioned that the cousin could drive out to visit him in NV and give him the gun.

              That would violate Federal laws, since the parties are residents of different States.

              In order to be legal under Federal laws, the transfer must be done through a NV FFL dealer.

                We seem to be dropping some context - if I understand C&R correctly, should the NV-person get the C&R, the CA-person with the probably-C&R-gun could drive it to NV and transfer the gun to the C&R licensee, following C&R rules.

                But, since the OP did not bring up C&R, that discussion it tilting at a quintain.

                  I missed the part that the NV resident had a C&R FFL and it is a C&R firearm.

                    I didn't drop any content.

                    Cokebottle did and Quiet didn't read all the post to see what I had said and Cokebottle deleted when he quoted me.

                    And, you're correct that the OP didn't bring up C&R. He came and asked what was the best way for him to get his family heirloom.

                    Most people go straight to the needs to go through an FFL in the home state of the new owner. While 100% correct there are more than one type of FFL.

                    As I mentioned in my previous post the odds are it can be proven to be a C&R firearm. Which would make getting a C&R FFL the easiest way to get this heirloom to the OP.

                    And, your understanding of the C&R FFL is correct.

                      He doesn't. I recommend that he gets one.
