• Q: If I move to California can I take this?

  • Answered
  • Asked 01/26/2020 07:27 by Max M

  A:

  Yes, you can. Those who move in from out of state are considered a personal firearm importer. You are considered a personal firearm importer as defined by California law. You may bring all of your California-legal firearms with you, but you must report them all to the California Department of Justice within 60 days as required utilizing the New Resident Firearm Ownership Report (BOF 4010A), pdf. You may not bring ammunition feeding devices with a capacity greater than ten rounds, machine guns, or assault weapons into California. Now, if a firearm is NOT on the Handgun Roster you can still bring that handgun in as long as it doesn’t have all illegal stuff. The handgun does not have to be on the roster. I suggest you call several FFL dealers near the area in which you are moving in California. I live in California and firearms laws change all the time by getting worse. It was my pleasure to assist you.

• Q: good beginner gun?

  • Answered
  • Asked 02/05/2019 16:15 by Ronnie B

  A:

  Ronnie - Sure. Honestly, there are hundreds of good "beginner" guns. Most of the medium size 9mm pistols would be fine. The thing about finding a good 'beginner' gun is remembering that after a while, the person shooting it won't be a beginner any longer, and if he gun they have doesn't fit them, they'll no enjoy shooting it. I always recommend going to a range and trying a few guns before actually buying one, or trying out a friend's guns. . That will give you a feel for what feels "right" to you, and you will have a better idea of which direction you want to go. And you'll find the 9mm medium size pistols don't 'kick' any harder than this one, and some might actually feel more 'gentle'. 9mm is a great caliber. 380 is OK too. If you plan on carrying this gun, and using it for self defense only, then it's fine. If you want something you can take to a range and truly enjoy putting a lot of rounds through it then I recommend something just a bit more substantial. A Glock 19 is hard to beat - all the way around - for beginners or 'shooters'
