Location of Firearm Delivery?

[MGM Tactical]

Hello everyone,

Can anyone tell me if delivery of a firearm after the 10 day waiting period must occur at the FFL's place of business? I thought I previously read somewhere that delivery could occur at a different location to accomodate special circumstances. I thought I would ask here before I call DOJ and ATF, although I will be calling them regardless.

Thanks!!

It has to take place at the FFL's place of business. There are some exceptions for gun shows.

(B) A person licensed pursuant to subdivision (a) may take possession of firearms and commence preparation of registers for the sale, delivery, or transfer of firearms at gun shows or events, as defined in Section 478.100 of Title 27 of the Code of Federal Regulations, or its successor, if the gun show or event is not conducted from any motorized or towed vehicle. A person conducting business pursuant to this subparagraph shall be entitled to conduct business as authorized herein at any gun show or event in the state without regard to the jurisdiction within this state that issued the license pursuant to subdivision (a), provided the person complies with (i) all applicable laws, including, but not limited to, the waiting period specified in subparagraph (A) of paragraph (3), and (ii) all applicable local laws, regulations, and fees, if any.
A person conducting business pursuant to this subparagraph shall publicly display his or her license issued pursuant to subdivision (a), or a facsimile thereof, at any gun show or event, as specified in this subparagraph.
(C) A person licensed pursuant to subdivision (a) may engage in the sale and transfer of firearms other than pistols, revolvers, or other firearms capable of being concealed upon the person, at events specified in subdivision (g) of Section 12078, subject to the prohibitions and restrictions contained in that subdivision.
A person licensed pursuant to subdivision (a) also may accept delivery of firearms other than pistols, revolvers, or other firearms capable of being concealed upon the person, outside the building designated in the license, provided the firearm is being donated for the purpose of sale or transfer at an auction or similar event specified in subdivision (g) of Section 12078.
(D) The firearm may be delivered to the purchaser, transferee, or person being loaned the firearm at one of the following places:
(i) The building designated in the license.
(ii) The places specified in subparagraph (B) or (C).
(iii) The place of residence of, the fixed place of business of, or on private property owned or lawfully possessed by, the purchaser, transferee, or person being loaned the firearm.

Now finding an FFL that delivers is a whole different story

You also need to look at CA law.

That copy is straight from CA pc.12071

And what does the Federal law say?

I've got nothing from Fed law that restricts it...are you saying this is a case where CA law is more lenient than Federal? If you have a paragragh number of something I'm missing I'd like to read it. Everything I've seen the Federal law basically leaves these types of decisions to the respective states

There are a lot of laws and restrictions, you need to be aware of all of them. One law can seem to imply you can do something, only to be banned elsewhere. You don't want to think that you can do business someplace when you really can't.

Yes, CA can be less restrictive, such as family transfers.

and and are the parts of the Gun Control Act that address where an FFL may engage in "activity that requires a license." It looks like you can only engage in activity at your licensed premises or at a gun show in your State.
