    Selling a Taser in CA

    I have done a search on here and through Google and I really could not find any solid information on selling a M26 Taser to a private party here in CA. I purchased it from a private party with no extra information. When I do a Google search, the best info I can find says that all I need to do is make sure I have a copy of the buyer's DL when I sell it.

    Could anyone shed some light on either a link for me to read or their own experiences on selling an M26 in CA?

    Thank you for an advice.

    Only restrictions are:
    1. Do not sell it to a prohibited person (felon, drug user, etc).
    2. Do not sell it to a minor, unless the minor is between 16-17 years of age and has written consent from their parent/guardian.


    Applicable CA laws...

    Penal Code 17230
    As used in this part, "stun gun" means any item, except a less lethal weapon, used or intended to be used as either an offensive or defensive weapon that is capable of temporarily immobilizing a person by the infliction of an electrical charge.

    Penal Code 22610
    Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any person may purchase, possess, or use a stun gun, subject to the following requirements:
    (a) No person convicted of a felony or any crime involving an assault under the laws of the United States, the State of California, or any other state, government, or country, or convicted of misuse of a stun gun under Section 244.5, shall purchase, possess, or use any stun gun.
    (b) No person addicted to any narcotic drug shall purchase, possess, or use a stun gun.
    (c)(1) No person shall sell or furnish any stun gun to a minor unless the minor is at least 16 years of age and has the written consent of the minor's parent or legal guardian.
    (2) Violation of this subdivision shall be a public offense punishable by a fifty-dollar ($50) fine for the first offense. Any subsequent violation of this subdivision is a misdemeanor.
    (d) No minor shall possess any stun gun unless the minor is at least 16 years of age and has the written consent of the minor's parent or legal guardian.

          Taser recommends that you have the buyer register the Taser here:
          The same technology trusted by law enforcement, our less-lethal devices are designed for safety, ease of use, and peace of mind. Protect yourself, protect your loved ones and protect the life you’ve built with the only devices that can immobilize an attacker without lethal force.
