PPT - seller no longer esident

[Megalomegalodon]

I have a friend who moved to Nevada but has some firearms still in here in California. They were never registered in Nevada. He wants to sell them here in California. I was told by an FFL that it cannot be done since he is no longer a California resident, and the firearms are registered in California. He does have a valid Nevada ID. Can someone clarify this for me.

PPT is between 2 residents of the same state and both at the FFL together... so no interstate shipping

Sorry - ATF does not recognize snowbirds....


So a Resident of NV cannot PPT to CA resident...


It would need to be an on roster FFL transfer.... some FFL allow walk ins.... other require shipping....

Thank you for the clarification.

PPT = face to face transfer between CA residents facilitated by a CA FFL dealer.
~If one of the parties involves is a non-resident of CA, then the transfer is not considered a PPT.
~If the firearm is shipped, then the transfer is not considered a PPT.


For a PPT, the transferor needs to have a valid CA DL/ID or valid Mil ID with current permanent orders for CA.

If the transferor does not have a valid CA DL/ID or valid Mil ID with current permanent orders for CA, then the CA DROS system will not allow the transfer to be conducted as a PPT.

Since the transfer is not considered a PPT, the CA FFL dealer facilitating the transfer can legally charge any amount of money to conduct the transfer.

In addition, if the CA legal firearm is a handgun, then it must be listed on the Roster of Handguns Certified for Sale or be exempt from it.

Guns aren't registered in Nevada like in most all states in this country.

Registration of firearms is mostly a CA thing.

From 01-01-1948 to 06-01-2015, handguns were required to be registered in Clark County (Nevada) with the LVMPD.
^Due to this change in NV laws, LVMPD was required to destroy all registration records by 01-01-2016.

Interesting! I did not know that.

Did you know the CA DOJ seems to not care who the gun is currently registered to in a PPT? However, it is clear a PPT must involve two CA ID/DL (I am ignoring the military exemption) to be a PPT. Otherwise it is a regular transfer subject to the handgun roster and the 1 in 30 days for all guns.
