Even private sales have to go though a licensed gun dealer."
Oops, Check your local laws, I forget private sales are forbidden some places. Gun shop or pawn shop is the place for you in Ca.
thanks mylife
And seriously, $25 gift card for Beall’s? LOL
However, the state line is not far away.
Once OUTSIDE Kalifornia, they have NO jurisdiction.
It is PERFECTLY LEGAL to sell your firearm to any licensed gun dealer OUTSIDE Kalifornia.
It is NOT legal to sell directly to a private party outside Kalifornia.
No problem.
Ca has really changed since I lived there.
You used to be able to buy guns at the Scottish Rite Temple for cash on the barrel head.
Never sell a firearm across state lines without an FFL
They did have a picture gallery at the website. At least a couple of the shotguns were definitely sawed-off.
Minnesota has its share of silliness, but we can still freely trade arms for the most part.
No, perfectly legal to sell across state lines, to a licensed dealer, including pawn shops and gunsmiths.
Some old guns are worth more in parts than whole!
Not legal to sell across state lines to a private party.
Unless the the gun is a pre-1898 antique.
I wouldn't turn in this for a $75 gift card!
Could you even fathom someone turning in a class full auto worth $25k for $75?
As I said, across statelines you must use an FFL.
No matter what state you reside in.
If it’s pre 1898 you can sell in to any one in the US and personally ship it via USPS legally (Not sure about HI or AK)
Did not see the gallery,nice of them to paper over actual felonies!
I wonder how many of these “Buy Back” guns were stolen, and will any effort be made to determine that?
If found to be stolen, what chance they are returned to the rightful owner?
Yes, I know the answers, no theft check, and none!
As it should be.
Send it to me :)
They forgot the decimal point. A Lorcin is worth about $5, and it might fire eight or nine rounds with the magazine. They obviously didn't get any photogenic AK47s to show off.
All gun turn-ins in Detroit feature an AK47, even if they have to bring one from the evidence locker. The rest of the haul is mostly trash.
Still, good on the Bradenton PD for getting the junk off the street. People could step on them, and break an ankle, otherwise.
I’m series; I pay the going rate for gun buy-backs around here ($50 Meijer gift card— I’ll make it Wal-Mart if you don’t have a Meijer by you).
Not to be argumentative, just clear.
So long as the receiving party holds an FFL, no FFL is required at the sellers end.
UPS, Fed-Ex, etc. may claim so, but it’s not true.
Long guns may be shipped via USPS, if you can find a postal clerk that follows the actual regulations.
Well, All I an saying is that our friend should contact an FFL holder in Ca, and that anyone selling across state line should as well.
Our gun laws are clear as mud.
