Advice on 1st Luger

[SailorBill]

OK, I did win the auction, but then learned that the Mauser could not be brought into California . . . not old enough to be C&R and no Mauser or Luger is on the state approved selling list.

Obviously, I got carried away and forgot to do my homework. Lesson learned ... the hard way. Of course, I did get to participate in my first auction . .

But now, it's back to the old drawing board . . .

Then where are our California members buying their Lugers from???

Tell you what...Send the guy the money and tell him to send it to your good friend Richie B in NYS...I'll fax him an FFL...And we'll go from there...

C&R (pre 1964) are OK. Otherwise, I've been told that the only possibility might be guns already in the state before the regs were enacted. "Grandfathered in" so to speak. (Not speaking from actual reading of the regs.)
