PPT Transfers of Glocks still good?

OK, quick question. I ran across a local FFL that says they will no longer transfer Glocks, even by PPT. I think it is them being overly cautious, but wanted to reach out - can an FFL still transfer by PPT a Glock pistol? Asking for a friend ;-)

Which shop said this? Would be good to know to not waste time trying to transfer a Glock specifically
 
PPT still can, BUT no longer can on a family out of state gift transfer. Usually those were treated like PPTs, but not for Glocks now.
 
They are in all other respects a great shop, with good staff, so I won't put them on blast.
Then why tell us… AND not spare people the drive in case they’d like to transfer a Glock

Could have just asked a hypothetical question and no one would have been the wiser…
 
I just PPT'd a brand new G19 Gen 6 with no issues other than the 2 guys behind the counter wanted to hold and dry fire it.

Then help them out. Why not share with them the actual code provisions showing PPT of these guns is exempted?

CA PEN 27595.​

(a) Except as provided in subdivision (c), commencing on July 1, 2026, a firearms dealer licensed pursuant to Sections 26700 to 26920, shall not sell, offer for sale, exchange, give, transfer, or deliver any semiautomatic machinegun-convertible pistol, as defined in Section 16885.
[…]
(c) This section shall not apply to any of the following:
(1) A machinegun-convertible pistol delivered to a firearms dealer prior to January 1, 2026.
(2) The sale of a machinegun-convertible pistol to any of the following entities for lawful use in the discharge of their official duties:
(A) A police department, sheriff’s office, probation department, marshal’s office, district attorney’s office, the California Highway Patrol, the Department of Justice, the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
(B) Any state agency listed in paragraph (6) or paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 32000.
(C) The military or naval forces of this state or of the United States.
(3) A private party to private party transaction conducted through a licensed firearms dealer pursuant to Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 28050).
Or, maybe this “great shop” just doesn’t want to bother with your $10 transfer fee.

You can still go to a gun store and buy new Glocks, as long as its leftover inventory before unconstitutional glock ban law took effect.
 
We consign glocks all the time and do PPT's for them from time to time. They are still able to be transfered via consignment or PPT only, you are good @bcj68
 
I believe that was the case only from Jan 01, 2026 to July 01, 2026.
It’s the first exemption to the statute:
27595
(c) This section shall not apply to any of the following:
(1) A machinegun-convertible pistol delivered to a firearms dealer prior to January 1, 2026.
