Buying CA off-roster firearms via Single Shot Exemption

[LiveLife]

This is another response to NoobCannon's question of what he can bring to California, but the thread was closed.

What can I bring to California?
So, things are getting serious with me and my girlfriend/fiancee, but the problem is, She lives in California, and I'm a Born and Bred Texan. As things progress, I'm going to need to cull my collection to ease her worries, as well as to keep myself from stirring trouble with their asinine gun control laws.

My current handguns are both Tauruses, a PT840 and a PT111 Mil-Pro. Both have "high capacity magazines" according to California law, but it's considered the norm here. But, seriously...15 rounds of .40 isn't that much, nor is 12 rounds of 9mm. Either way, I'm going to need to get some 10-rounders.

But, of those two handguns, what am I going to have to do to get one or the other into the state with no problems? I saw the thing about what handguns you can BUY there, but I don't want to buy a new gun unless I absolutely have to.

Another option that can be used to legally bring firearms not on the CA approved roster is via Single Shot Exemption. The discussion thread on Calguns.net explains the process involved and participating firearm manufacturers/FFLs/vendors in and out of California.

As I posted on the other thread, gun related laws/practices are continuously changing/being challenged in California (example is the use of bullet button for CA legal purchase of AR rifles with pistol grips) and stay updated to exercise your right to keep and bear "CA legal" arms.

If you have questions about this, please read the discussion thread on Calguns.net as most likely already addressed on the thread. I hope this helps the OP and others in similar situations.
