FFL w/ no CFD needs to ship Pistol

[eltee]

There are a few FFLs in California who are not certified by Ca. DOJ to sell firearms and therefore cannot process a DROS. Examples are dealers who moved to another county where the "local govt" will not allow them to sell firearms although gunsmithing is permitted. THey can keep their FFL but cannot get a CFD #, etc.

Am I correct in assuming that if they want to put the gun in another FFL's inventory (who IS fully licensed and CAN process a DROS), they have to CFLC even if they are close enough to hand carry the firearm over?

Any 01 FFL in the country transfering a firearm to a CA dealer must have CFLC authorization. Doesn't apply in this case, but never understood how CA can enforce a law on non-CA residents not currently in CA.

He's gonna' CFLC.

certain dealers can get exemptions to the CFD list. Specifically gunsmiths and such that are not actively selling firearms. Call the DOJ and they can walk you through the process.
