    Default Shipping a firearm to Kalifornia

    I know this has probably been asked a hundred times before but does anyone know an FFL in the Broomfield/Westminster area I can use to have my son (Cali resident) ship a bolt gun I am giving him to a Cali FFL for him? (Or me to him, to make the terminology legal. It's an inheritance)

    The sending ffl has to be CADOJ approved. It's approx a 5-10 on line file.

    1. Are there any costs or fees to obtain a Firearms Shipment Approval number from the Department of Jusice (DOJ)?
      • No. There are no costs or fees associated with the CFLC program.

    2. I am not an FFL but I want to ship a firearm to a California FFL. Do I have to obtain a Firearms Shipment Approval number before shipping a firearm to California?
      • No. Only shipments from Federal Firearms Licensees (FFL) require a

    Aaah, thanks. I interpret that to mean that I can ship the 1898 Krag to his FFL and he can fetch from there. Correct?

    If you are still alive, CA doesn't consider it an inheritance. That's neither here/there, but it affects the form they use on that end.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but pre 1899 you don't need an ffl at all as long as it was manufactured then. Going from memory, as I used to have Mausers shipped right to my door in Cali years ago.

    They sure could make that a bit clearer. It's a rifle that my dad owned, now I do and he wanted it to eventually go to my son. FFL - FFL it is.
