Someone told me that as a California resident, if my parents (who would be out of State) gives me a handgun that is not on the Certified Handguns Roster (or on the removed list) that it counts as an intrafamily transfer and exempted from having to be on the current roster.
Is this really true? ETA: I know I've said this in GD a few times, but I am probably going to be joining the Cali ranks soon. |

Intrafamilial gift (grandparent/parent/child/grandchild) of a handgun is exempt from the approved list, even when the handgun is being gifted from out-of-CA.
Federal law requires the handgun to be transfered through a CA FFL dealer. Not many CA FFL dealers are willing to do this, so call around before your parents ship off the handgun. |

Thank you for the clarification. |
