noob questions about PPT (CA)

[GlockTalk9]

I'm planning to sell one of my handguns and this will be my first time. I got an general idea how a PPT should go down but wanted to confirm. Seller & Buyer meets face to face at a CA FFL dealer. Buyer agrees to purchase, seller gets paid, then dealer starts up the paperwork. The buyer (or the seller?) pays the transaction fee (typically $35) and the 10 day wait begins for the buyer. Seller and buyer goes home with a copy of the transaction for paper trail.

1) My CDL does not have my current address. Will my car registration, CA guard card or CA firearm permit work to show current residency? What if the address on buyer's CDL/ID is not current?

2) How long does it usually take to transfer 1 handgun (its on CA roster)?

3) Am I missing anything?

4) What FFL dealer would you recommend near the Alameda area?

The buyer and seller work out which one will pay the $35 fee (usually the buyer).

Some dealers will not care about the seller's address as long as their DL or ID is current. I've seen where some dealers require everything from the seller that would be required from a buyer including the thumbprint and any residency/address proof.

The process can take as little as 10 minutes. There are some dealers that draw it out for whatever reasons. PPT'd handguns do not need to be on the roster and it doesn't take any less time if they are.

I can't recommend a dealer in the Alameda area because I don't live there and haven't used any there.

The only reason for the additional information from the seller is if the buyer is prohibited, but then it should be done at that point in time.

As was said, the buyer and seller should determine who is paying what, but typically the transfer fees are paid by the buyer.

Assuming that the FFL agrees, the seller can go to the FFL first and not at the same time as the buyer, fill out a DROS worksheet and then the buyer can come in (similar to a consignment sale).
