My dad is considering a job offer from a company based in San Francisco. Obviously my parents would have to move to California... luckily, I havent lived with them for years, it wouldnt affect me. So I'm asking on behalf of my dad.
The question is... my dad has a handgun (Ruger GP100). What, if any, hoops would he have to jump through to bring it with him to California? Does Cali have firearm importation laws? Does Cali have handgun registration? Would it require a mountain of paperwork?
Ideally nothing of the sort is required, but after hearing stories about crazy laws in CA, I doubt its that easy.
My dad doesnt carry, he just has it for home defense. He says that if its too much of a hassle to legally bring it with him to Cali, he'll just give it to me. While that would be nice, I'd feel kinda guilty knowing my parents home is unarmed.
Advice would be appreciated.
