All firearms purchases and transfers, including private party transactions and sales at gun shows, must be made through a licensed dealer under the Dealer Record of Sale (DROS) process.  California imposes a 10-day waiting period before a firearm can be released to a buyer or transferee. Buying a long gun is much easier than a handgun, long gun refers to rifles, carbines and most shotguns. Buyers must be at least 18 years of age for long gun purchases.

As part of the DROS process, the buyer must present "clear evidence of identity and age" which is defined as a valid, non-expired California Driver's License or Identification Card issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles.  A military identification accompanied by permanent duty station orders indicating a posting in California is also acceptable.

Sierra Gun Works reserves the right to refuse firearms sales to any person who is not a citizen of the United States.

There are no tests to take and you can purchase as many long guns as you wish. The DROS fee is $25 for the first transfer and no charge for any additional if done at the same time to the same person. Private party transfers of long guns require both parties to be present at the time of transfer and the fee is $35 for the first and no charge for any additional transfers done at the same time to the same person.
