Notwithstanding the question of ownership the the registration process in California is easy. Cal Penal code 12078 (u) exempts executors of estates, a trustee in bankruptcy, surviving spouse, ect from Dealer Report of Sale (DROS-the instrument that registures the gun).If you take it to a gun shop they will not keep it, but don't do that. If you want to get it registured go to the gun shop without the revolver and take the test for the Handgun Safety Certificate. It cost something like $15 and is good for 3 years. You will need that. Then go to the CA DOJ Firearms website and go to Forms. Find the one called "Firearm Ownership Record" print it out, fill it out and send it, along with a check for $19, to the Dept of Justice. If you are not in a "Prohibated Catagory" and I suspect you are not, within 30 days you will get a confirmation letter. But I wouldn't bother. If the old gal you got it from was 99, we can suspect she got that gun over 50 years ago.The started registuring handguns here a long time ago. Any records of registuration from the late 1960's and earlier, if they still exist, are hand written on cards with long changed addresses buried in the back of some wharehouse in Sacramento. The later records, up into the 1980, are stored on magnetic tape that no existing computer can read. My poinnt is, they are not sure what old guns were registured or not. If you are old enough, just claim you bought it in some long gone pawn shop in 1962. The only time anyone will ever check anyway if it has been reported stolen or used in a crime and recovered. If that gun is a S&W 22 Masterpiece target model and is in great condition it may be worth a $1000.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange.

In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together.
