I seem to recall a provision in CA law that allowed an FFL to complete a transfer if it was done on the property of the purchaser (home or business). Don't know if that provision still applies.

During my license interview a couple weeks ago, my ATF Investigator said that I can deliver a firearm to a purchaser. But if I remember correctly, the paperwork has to be done at the business location.
