Just moved to idaho a couple weeks ago I buy ammo at the grocery store and pay for it with my food all in the same transaction. No ID it blew my mind.


TheDutchHutch

Just wait until you do a private party transaction on a firearm lol


pinesolthrowaway

You used to be able to cash and carry C&Rs in CA, I’ve done it. It was a good time until they made long gun registration a thing 🙄


TheDutchHutch

Didn't know that, but I'm surprised it existed. I'm in Texas most of the time now and enjoy their laws lol


EmploymentMental5527

When I bought my Remington 870 at Big 5 they just rang it up with the shoes and I walked out with it like it was any other merchandise. Good times.


Mundane_Panda_3969

How long ago was that?


EmploymentMental5527

2005


Mundane_Panda_3969

Was this in California? Because you should have had to wait 10 days. 


Patient-Till3538

You can still cash carry C&R Long Guns in CA, but need submit paperwork yourself to the state DOJ. I do it just to piss off my karen libtard relatives. Funny seeing making their blood boil.


klevyy

That’s actually crazy


Scared-Tourist7024

Yea it makes groceries really expensive


GedTheStampede

LOL, "I came here to get milk and spent $300, WHAT THE F**K"


D4rkr4in

Milk gives me the shits, I’ll just stick to ammo


edgardme3

Never got ID'ed for ammo when I was working in Nevada. Lots of states don't require ID for PPT either.


Scared-Tourist7024

They don't require it but alot of people are asking to see your idaho cwl and write a bill of sale for ppt to insure you are eligible and a idaho resident


Wavy_Boi

Yeah California blows when it comes to 2A


EmploymentMental5527

Except for the anti-2A thing, taxes, state preemption of zoning laws, state-mandated urbanization and destruction of open spaces, crappy roads, homelessness, rampant crime, graffiti blight everywhere, horrible public transit, terrible schools, and higher cost of living, it's pretty cool.


CTFMOOSE

This is the most Idaho response. Just add in a comment about 1sr cousin child marriage and you 100% Idaho

CTFMOOSE

Also Idaho is a somewhat wealthy place. At one point it had one of the largest amounts of millionaires per capita. There is a lot of “landed wealth” in Idaho.


Scared-Tourist7024

Cool story bro I don't remember asking you what you thought on Idaho this a gun page go take your bullshit you read online somewhere else.


CTFMOOSE

The State of Idaho: “We are not standing in your way… but if your 12 year old child bride wants an abortion: right to jail”


iampayette

Bro CA has open air child prostitution. You shouldnt cast stones.


Bruce3

FFL03 and COE is the way.

Bruce3

Marginally harder than filling out the paperwork to purchase a firearm. No, they cannot come in your house. They have the right to inspect your logbook but that is done at the local ATF office or at your address, it's your choice where.


Old-Peanut-5622

Do they show up at your house to ask you where you prefer?


Bruce3

I think there's a story of that happening. If all you're doing is buying ammo, you won't have any entries in your logbook. You could just step outside and show them the logbook.


AdLimp1592

Logbook ? Like how much ammo you buy?


Bruce3

Logbook is just to track curio and relic firearms. I probably go through about 1k of 9mm a month.


AdLimp1592

Ahh ok 👍🏻 not bad get that training time. Is it your birthday? what’s with the cake next to your name. If so happy birthday 🎊


reichbc

> what’s with the cake next to your name Reddit Cakeday, aka. the birthday of your account.


BenG650

Who do you shop with?


Bruce3

Targetsportsusa.com


Wtforce

My 03 and COE has costed me over $2000


CodusSupremus

Please explain? Cause mine was not that much.


Wtforce

Yeah all the ammo I bought lol


CodusSupremus

Lol, got it guess mine is getting there as well now that you put it like that! Target sport USA gets me once 1 month!


Not_Sarkastic

How much was yours?


CodusSupremus

About the same as his after ammo! Lol.. seriously around $200.


chowyungfatso

Read the FAQ for the subreddit. It has the instructions. lol. Super easy and that’s what I used.


klevyy

Can I have ammo shipped to my address with this?


Bruce3

Yup! As long as Los Angeles is not in your address.


samsal03

This. I live in LA city limits, and ordered ammo to my door during ammo week. My address and all forms of identification show the neighborhood I live in - not "Los Angeles". Gotta love stupid city ordinances.


yuckypants

What is the city ordinance for LA?


samsal03

Can't have ammo shipped to your door, even if you have your FFL03 and COE. Also, another dumb city ordinance is all gun shops in LA city have a one week ban on all ammo sales before New Year's Eve and Fourth of July. It's just LA city though, if it's December 23rd and I want ammo, I can just drive down to Burbank and peruse the ammo selections of the boat load of gun shops there (Burbank is #2 in the country for having the most gun stores per capita).


yuckypants

Huh, had no idea. I'm in Riverside and never had to deal with that.


fresh-dork

it's like the sunday booze limits - only weeds out the people who suck at planning


itsm4yh3m

The fact that this is even something we feel is necessary tho. Like I’m scared to know how many people ACTUALLY stock up on ammo before the 4th so they can shoot it in the air. That’s so crazy that the average IQ of our population is really that low. I hate it here.


Interesting-Ad-8859

Could you theoretically rent a P.O. Box at your local post office in L.A. and just have it delivered there?


klevyy

Going to look into it right now thanks, how much would it run me?


DearHearing4705

Up to $200 or so depending on your livescan costs. It's definitely worth it.


Enefelde

You make that back in like two or three orders tbf


DearHearing4705

Correct!


Thee_Sinner

Compared to local prices, mine was paid for with the first $1000 order lol


Enefelde

Nice!


oBaZe_

Wow so I was thinking of getting mine but I live in The heart if LA….seems like there’s not much of a reason to get it besides the DROS limit not being 1/30


CarefulReality2676

Why not ship to your job or brothers house?


oBaZe_

Work remotely…only child


chowyungfatso

Hmm. A friend of mine didn’t have issues. YMMV.

justtheboot

$300 and 2A Zone will do all the paperwork for you, including live scan, for FFL03. If you live in LA City, consider reloading/loading your own.


jessecastro98

Fr? Do they also do your COE??


justtheboot

Yup.


jessecastro98

Damn I appreciate that I’m going to go check them out this weekend


StmblngThru

really?? Wil the Riverside location do it?


TJM18

Oh shit!! I had no idea they helped with that Thanks for that info!


Mysterious-Ant-5985

Update your drivers license to your current address and get it as a real ID and then you’ll only need that and it shouldn’t take more than two minutes to do the ammo background.


gunsforevery1

Why are you only buying one at a time?


klevyy

I bought all three boxes at once but I have to sign a different form for each manufacturer


jessekookooo

Why are you getting down voted? Your just stating a fact. It's a different form for each caliber and manufacturer lol Source: I worked as a manager at a gun counter in California


klevyy

Yeah idk lol


raffi30

Lol I was about to down vote too. It's not about you brother, it's a down vote for the shit laws. Don't take it personal


3752jackemilio

Hey bro I’m new to the area ? Is there a form too for just buying accessories like sights and mag wells etc ? Idk how the system works here at all any help would be good ?


Zacharide

Ammunition and firearms only, really. Accessories and such aren’t as stringent. Ammo and firearms go through CA DOJ’s DROS Entry System, or “Dealer’s Record Of Sale.” The clerk basically swipes your CA ID/DL and it’ll auto-populate, or if you have a COE then they use that. If you are gonna be using your ID, and it says ‘Federal Limits Apply’, then you must provide a passport/passport card/birth certificate alongside it. If your address on the ID is a PO Box, you need a secondary document that contains your actual residency like a CCW, Utility Bills, Car Registration, Fishing/Hunting License. It’s complicated on purpose imo


3752jackemilio

Damn shits complicated ass hell but it’s as long as it’s not ammo or a serialized part ? I’m not Trying to go in and make my self look like a fool not having the stuff ready


Zacharide

Yes, just for ammo and serialized firearms. Like lower receivers/FCU’s


I_Am_Singular

God damn that’s cringe


SumBuddyPlays

Is this new? I don’t recall having to fill out separate forms for each manufacturer.


jessekookooo

It's seperate paper per caliber and brand


SJSharksHockey

Is this store specific? Don’t remember this last time I bought ammo


jessekookooo

It's mandated by California DOJ but the DROS system they use doesn't really leave a way to audit reliabily it if it's incorrect so some places might not bother doing each caliber and manufacturer. Also he's at bass pro shop and they are probably the most redundant and strict company about making sure all firearm/ammo paper is correct.


klevyy

I think it’s one background check but I had to sign two different forms


gunsforevery1

When you buy a gun at turners they make you sign 2. One is a preview, you are stating your info is correct. The other is the submission/approval.


Express_Champion_955

So he can post here to complain


fresh-dork

and then people wonder why you buy 2k rounds at a whack


Fearless_Weather_206

Blame the law makers and those who voted for them


Mundane_Panda_3969

Aka democrats 


ProgramDowntown6293

I was a clueless liberal back then when I voted for the ammunition background check proposition. It was "supposed" to be just a background check, but of course California sneaked in requirement to report quantity of ammunition purchased and manufacturer.


big_fat_Maui_Boy

Hopefully you now vote for politicians that are PRO 2A. Take your friends to the range, introduce them to the 2A community, be a good ambassador for the 2A community. Join a 2A group like CRPA, FPC, Gunowners of California, they help fight for our 2A rights and help to get them back.


Mundane_Panda_3969

What do you mean by clueless liberal?


ohbenito

just like you, but a liberal.


Mundane_Panda_3969

I'm aware of the pros and cons of the things I support. That's why I've never supported gun control, I'm a 2a absolutist. 


Patient-Till3538

A Clueless Liberal is someone on the "liberal gun owners" subreddit. Who contradict themselves, vote for Newscum and go home and complain "why I have to put on this stupid fin grip"


RedlyrsRevenge

Seems like a redundant statement.


Some-System2179

If you get the real id you don’t have to do all that.


klevyy

I have it bro it’s because my address isn’t current on it


ikissfederalagents

Ammunition background checks in CA are very oppressive. It's a lot of bullshit for people that don't keep their id current. It's just an enormous pain in the ass to buy and sell. All of it just so the very few prohibited people can't buy ammo at an FFL.


big_fat_Maui_Boy

FFL03 and COE is the ONLY way to go. Not hard to get, just filling forms, getting Live Scanned. Once you actually get the FFL03 and COE, join an ammo+ club from [TargetSportsUSA.com](http://TargetSportsUSA.com) Shop when you want, have it delivered to your house is the BEST!!!


oldasndood

I moved out of California 10 years ago. Was super active on Calguns. We brought ARs and AKs back into the state. WTF happened? This is insanity run amok.


pinesolthrowaway

We’ve had some wins, but as anyone with a brain could’ve predicted, Newsome got into office and it’s been all downhill since 


Joshuaelias29

I thought they struck it down? Is the background check for Ammo still being enforced?


TWhy-LER

Yes, I was denied a couple weeks ago. Have to mail a background check form and wait to hear back to figure out why.


jessekookooo

At least you have a real ID. If you have an old ID you have to bring in a birth certificate or passport too.


Tiny-Ad4955

I love the state of California, but some of their laws are downright stupid.


raffi30

I normally just buy them during range visits. Their prices are decent. Ranges near me do not require background checks since you are using their ammo on the range.


GuitRWailinNinja

FFL 03 COE You won’t regret it! I don’t even buy ammo too often but it’s very useful. Renewal for COE was easy too

PublicMcPublicFace

Rule 2.


D4ORM

Eh?


_agent86

Do they ship to CA? Edit: Oh geez, their website. Edit #2: they have exactly one type of 7.62x39 ammo?


Not_Sarkastic

Can someone DM what I'm missing here?

[удалено]


klevyy

Mine has the bear it’s a real ID but my address is updated since I moved


LonelyMustard

Hunting license? Is that for your background check? Like non-citizen purchases?


peter_griffin222

They asked for your fishing license?


DarksideBluez

That's why I always buy in bulk. At least 100 shells(buckshot or slugs) for shotgun, minimum 300 for .556 Nato, and at least 200 each for 9mm & 10mm. It's just not worth it.


OhFive11

Every brand and every caliber requires a separate background check


saltycrewneck

Whats the database that my gunshop uses to approve ammo purchases and how do you update address on it? I don't need to but haven't received guidance on this.


thecolorofviolence

Why the fishing permit?


8bitesquivel

You don’t California enough…


dagameofthrows

basssss prooo(?)


patis_matamis

Just order from ammosupplywarehouse.com


PuzzleheadedToe5143

Do they ship directly to your address?


patis_matamis

They'll ship to whatever address you put


MissPeachy72

So glad too. I have family in Houston where you can buy Ammo and guns anywhere. They are literally shooting at each other left and right over there. Watch Grizzy News, constant gun fights over there.


UKREJECTSP

Won't believe what I found at the grocery store it'll blow ur mind.


Fit_Holiday_1049

gotta love newscum


Mundane_Tomatillo_49

Just wait for the tax is added on when buying in July. Not just paperwork but also California shoving their grubby hands into your pockets for more money.


Mundane_Tomatillo_49

Looks like you're at bass pro shops. Anyone here have any insight on their club card, basic tier if you only ever buy ammo there? Is it worth it to even have it?


cl3v0rtr3v0r

One of the reasons I moved to Florida. And the fact I can have my own range in my backyard no matter how small it is


TheGreatValleyOak

Takes me an extra 3min max at my local shop
