HA HA HA! EAT THIS CALIFORNIA

[silverlance]

I'm finally going on vacation Aug. 29th.

After taking my sister college hopping (she's 17), I plan to circumvent CA's evil disarmament laws by making an end run into either arizona or nevada where I will buy (several?) handguns with my C&R FFL and COE. Then, taking physical possession of the guns, I will LEGALLY drive right back across the border and then register them with CA DOJ within 5 days.

How does the plan sound? I think it's great, just too bad that all the hi-caps will have to be sold back or dumped.

Ok, so now - what to buy? and who to buy from? I'm going to try to get into Prescott to meet up with J&G sales, but anybody know of any others that I should consider?

What's on my wish list that I can't get here because of the "safety" list:

East German Mak
Chi or Rusk Tok
CZ 82
whatever might be on consignment.

Provided that the rest of the plan is legal, I would definitely take along any documents you have that explain what C&R is.

It wouldn't surprise me if the owners of some small pawnshops might not have heard of C&R. I'd expect some of them would be wary to sell to a CA resident, even with a C&R. It may help to have some gov't issue paperwork (like whatever info kit the BATF sent you) which lists what guns are C&R.

If your plan is legal and practical, sounds pretty cool. Have fun with that,

CA still gets the last laugh. You still have to go back and continue living under their tyranny.

curio and relic

@ bigcim:

You can apply to the Feds to get a Curio & Relics license, which allows you to purchase many firearms over 50 years old without having to go through an FFL.

For example, if you have a C&R, you could have a Luger pistol and a Krag rifle mailed directly to your doorstep, saving you $40 in FFL fees.

dont get me started

CALI:

* allows only long arms to be shipped direct to C&Rs.
* allows only handguns on its "approved safety list" to be shipped in.

therefore, in order to buy an east german mak i have to go to prescott arizona, buy it with my c&R (is there a waiting period? i hope not... id have to go twice then), then carry it back across the border, then register it within five days. ...

Best thing to do is to move out of Calif.
