Contender - Private Party Transfers in California
« on: March 17, 2003, 06:05:29 PM »
Guys:

Can a private party who bought a Contender over ten years ago in the state of California, sell it to another private party in CA today...provided the transaction is handled through a licensed FFL delear in CA?  The transferee has a HSC and is legally eligible to own a handgun in CA.

Contenders aren't on the "list"...and I'm getting mixed signals from all directions.

Thanks!   ...Chris    :?

Yes you should be able to transfer the firearm.  You just can't buy a new one or import any from out of state unless you have a direct blood relative give one to you.  Then it is SB15 exempt.  Hope this helps.  IronMonkey

Thanks for the help guys....that was my take on the transfer/sale, but the dealer wanted to check with the AG office to confirm.  I can understand his reluctance at first...I assumed he was up-to-speed on this issue.  He told me all was OK until I started signing papwork.  Then he got cold feet...at that point I wasn't a happy camper.  

Anyway, if it wasn't for the fact this gun was as close to NIB as it gets, it wouldn't have been worth the hassle.  I was so frustrated I almost threw in the towel. But then again, that's just what the pinkos wanted me to do wasn't it?

Thanks for the help! ...Chris   :D


...ten days and counting!

This is done for you own good !! Dont you know that the contender pistols are Unsafe ?? Thompson wouldnt even submit the contender for the drop test . A single action 5 or 6 shot revolver I guess is considered idiot proof but the single action single shot is going to get somebody hurt .
(I hope you can see the Sarcasam)

The Answer is yes.  Also the dealer can sell them on consignment from his shop.
