Can I ship or sell an AR10 Semi Automatic Rifle to California?

[338LM_Sniper]

The buyer is from California, he wants the Lower Receiver only with no magazine shipped to his FFL in California, he also has an address in Nevada where he wants the Upper Receiver with Flash Hider installed and the High Capacity mags shipped to, Now is this okay?

Thanks for the help here.

Yep totally legal, the only way an AR is illegal in the PRK is if the upper and lower are joined and have forbidden features, if you ship the lower by itself to CA its all legal and above board.

What about the CFLC program? Something about having it shipped from my FFL and that my FFL has to get a license first?

1. I am not a Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) but I want to ship a firearm from another state to an FFL in California. Do I need to obtain a Firearm Verification Number before shipping a firearm to California?
   • No, if you are not a FFL, you do not need to obtain a Firearm Verification Number yourself. (Pen. Code 27555.) However, as a non-FFL, you may need to use the services of a FFL to ship the firearm to a California FFL. (See 18 U.S.C. 922(a)(3) and 922(b)(3); 27 CFR 478.29.) The FFL responsible for shipping your firearm to California will be required to obtain a Firearm Verification Number prior to shipping, in compliance with California Penal Code section 27555.

i'd call the receiving FFL just to confirm they'll accept it.

You can ship it yourself, they will want a copy of your D/l
If you use a ffl , they need to get a number, the California ffl should help them if they have not done it before

It's safe to ship just the lower so long as it's not on the prohibited list. California bans by name, by "close enough", and by feature.

You can safely ship it CA as a non-FFL because you have to send it to a FFL who will make sure it is legal for the recipient to take possession of the firearm.
