At this time my nephew is serving with a Marine Corps unit in Iraq. He told me he wants to get a handgun when he returns with his unit to the San Diego area. ( He would buy the gun back here in Ohio and take it with him to California)
I told him about the restrictions of transporting it in a locked case, unloaded in the trunk, no full cap magazines, and filling out a registration form.
Are there any other problems for a serviceman having a personally owned handgun in an off base residence. He plans on buying an XD-9 or a Glock.
Can anyone offer any advice about the pitfalls or problems. I did a search and also looked at the California Attorney General' web site (firearms page) but want some more precise information.
Thanks,
mike
