How does wife get deceased husbands guns in her name?

[brianm767]

CA residents, husband died, no will, they were legally married.
Can she send in Op Law form with her $19 once she gets her FSC?

They are all hand guns and she wants to get a CCW so she needs them in her name.

Assuming all the probate things are complete, yes, that's the way to do it.

I haven't kept up on it, but can we assume there is even a probate involved? We are told there is no will and I assume there is no trust agreement. Last I heard there was no need to conduct a probate of many small estates, if no real estate was owned Even if there was real estate, I don't recall whether or not it is considered part of the probate estate if it was held jointly (or as community property by a husband and wife).
Looking at Librarian's post, he appears right on as usual, if you understand him his comment on probate being complete assumes that this is a matter requiring probate.
