Intrafamilial transfers of long guns don't require any paperwork.
5. Can I give a firearm to my adult child? Can he/she give it back to me later?
Yes, as long as the adult child receiving the firearm is not in a prohibited category, pdf and the firearm is a legal firearm to possess, the transfer of a firearm between a parent and child or a grandparent and grandchild is exempt from the dealer transfer requirement. However, if the firearm is a handgun, you must submit a Report of Operation of Law or Intra-Familial Handgun Transaction, pdf and $19 fee to the DOJ within 30 days. Assault weapons may not be transferred in this fashion. See Penal Code section 12285, subdivision (b).

In other words, just have your dad hand you the shotgun. Done. No requirement to do anything else and long guns are not registered in this state...yet.www.tenpercentfirearms.com was open from 2005 until 2018. I now own Westside Arms.Comment

Why would you want it "in your name"? Are you aware that if you went to a gun store and bought a brand new 870 today, the state would not have any record that you own it. It would not be "in your name" or in anyone else's either.NRA Certified Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun and Metallic Cartridge Reloading Instructor

Because he doesn't understand that long guns are not registered and that when you buy one, the state is just making sure you are not prohibited from purchasing or possessing one. That is why we are here to educate him. I explain this about three times a day in the gun shop.www.tenpercentfirearms.com was open from 2005 until 2018. I now own Westside Arms.Comment
