We are a full service Federal Firearms Licensee. We provide new California firearm sales, DROS registrations, Private Party transfers, out-of-state transfers*, and ammunition transfers. We can quote out most CA-legal firearms*, provide the CA DOJ Firearms Safety Course certificate or renewal, and furnish that firearm to you, just like any chain store firearm dealer. Click here for the Firearms Safety Certificate Study Guide.
The difference is: No long lines, no taking a number, and no gun-counter attitude from a guy who “knows everything” and treats you like you are an idiot.
We treat you like our only client, walk you through the process (if needed), and do it with a smile. Need a price quote or recommendation? Call or email us. (Click on Contact Us above)
New CA Law: Mar 1, 2024 – Only one firearm can be registered every 30 days.
DROS Transfer Fee: $70 (Includes all state fees and processing.) One firearm can be registered every 30 days.
For multiple bolt or pump-action long gun firearm registrations, first firearm $70, additional firearms on same form are $35 each.
*We are NOT a California Assault Weapon Dealer. Make sure any firearms comply with both Federal and CA law before they are shipped to us!
Please advise us on what you ordered, or ask first if you are unsure of how this works!
Private Party Transfers: $47
CA Ammunition Transfers – New Fee Schedule July 1, 2021
The ammo rules changed back on July 1, 2019. Here’s a link to the DOJ website that discusses the new transfer procedures and how to comply and how to avoid higher background and storage fees.
https://oag.ca.gov/firearms/apap
We are adding a processing and ammo temp-storage fee of $4.00 starting July 1, 2021. Also, please let us know what you ordered and when it’s arriving. We don’t stock or sell ammo – just transfer it for you.
We are required to run a background check to transfer your ammunition for the purposes of following the CA law and compliance.
Standard background check (instant check) for those already in the CA DOJ Automated Firearm System – $5.00 per transaction. (Includes $1 DOJ fee – plus HD&S processing and temp-storage fee.)
Basic background check (manual check) for those not in the CA DOJ Automated Firearm System) – $19.00 (good for 30 days) plus storage fee of $1.00 per day per box (Cash only please). We do not want to have to store your ammo and charge you more money waiting for a manual background check, so please consider getting yourself on the DOJ AFS system for the Standard check!!
Here’s a link to the CA Ammo Transfer Law – please read this to see the detail of all the crap we now have to know to buy ammo here:

HD&S Firearmand Ammunition Storage Policy
As much as we like holding your guns amnd ammo, we do have limits on storage space. Please read our storage policy for guns and ammo left beyond 30 days. This means if you send us multiple handguns or semi-auto rifles, and we can only enter 1 every 30 days, storage fees will apply while you wait the mandated time. HD&S Firearm Storage Policy
More government B.S. – ID Cards
We require a current CA identification with current address for all transfers. Be aware if your current address on your ID does not match the record of previous firearm purchase in the DOJ system, you may not be approved under the instant background check. Also, if you have a “Federal Limits Apply” identification card, you will also need other proof of citizenship (valid passport or birth certificate) to buy both firearms or ammo.
Click in this link to see how to get the CA DMV “Real ID” card: https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/realid
If you have a valid older type CA driver license or ID without the Fed Limits or Golden Bear marks, these cards will still work. The Real ID, below, has a gold bear with a star in that location and is good to go for firearm transfers.
We don’t keep a firearm inventory here; this isn’t a storefront gun store. We specialize in guns you know you want to order up!
Depending on availability, if it’s a CA legal gun, we may be able to get here within a week. If you see one you like at a gun store, contact us and we’ll try and match or beat that price. Sometimes we can and sometimes we can’t…but we will try. Again, no waiting in lines, taking a number, and no attitude.
