lp,
I dont know california laws at all so I dont know what is legal or illegal their, I now reside on the other side of the country and have actually only flown out and into calif courtesy of uncle sugar a couple of times....With regards to the people selling them I dont know if its legal their, but are the laws in calif so restrictive att that the firearms cant be taken out of the state if you are close to a border, or possibly sold back to a dealer, or preferably kept or purchased and retained. My last firearms "collection" was sold to an elderly collector and what that man choose to do with them I dont know, I do remember selling them to him at a time prior to any restrictions that might have come about since that time. Now in the state of california and it would depend on risk to my self or property I would probably keep everything on paper regarding sales as they have shown them selves to be less than honorable legislatures but that is a personal choice--remember it might seem like a way to thumb your nose at the basta$$ but once your convicted of a felony because of some bullcrap gun law your chances of having that overturned are null and void in todays politicaly charged atmosphere. I no longer keep a large supply of firearms around and at this point am down to two rifles a 22lr and a 30-06, one shotgun 12ga pump and two pistols, a 1911a1 in 45acp and a s/w 357....Im hoping that after the new year Ill be able to maybe pick up a couple ive never had and try em out for awhile and maybe trade em or sell em soon after-----Ill be looking long and hard for that guy with the jeff cooper scout rifle for sale ---hey a man can dream cant he...lol....fubsy.
