I see a LOT of for sale post that say "no shipping to Cal." Is it that much of a hassel? I know there are guns that they do not allow because they are too EVIL, any info?

As of January 1, 2008, both in-state and out of state Federal Firearms License (FFL) holders will be required to obtain approval (e.g., a unique verification number) from the California Department of Justice prior to shipping firearms to any California FFL (Penal Code §§ 12072).
harmonic It's just too much hassle to jump through California's hoops.
Dogtown is correct, and some people just do not want to do this--I suspect they are ignorant. BUt we in California lose out on perfectly legal purchases because they won't take the minute it takes.
you can buy guns in Cali?
Those in the CA legislature voting for more gun control are pleased as punch to hear that they have slowed down the trade in legal firearms.
Vote those gun control fanatics OUT.
Shipping to a California FFL adds all of ONE MINUTE to the time it requires me to process a shipment.
I disagree with the train of thought that says boycotting CA is "giving in" to the gun control activists. People only start to care when things effect them. If buy boycotting shipping to CA effects enough people and costs businesses money then hopefully it will motivate them to rise up and change their laws. In the end, its always about the money and you have to hit them in the pocket books to see some positive change.
To those who feel an outright ban of California by dealers would turn it around here. I assure you it would not.
private parties have no requirement to use the CFLC system
which means we transfer about 1/2 a million guns a year
