Hey, quick question (maybe). Does anyone know about inheritance laws for guns/transfer of ownership. My dad lives in CA and has a few hunting guns and handguns. I live in AK. I have some of his guns. When he doesn't need them anymore, do I have to fill out paperwork to retain ownership? Should he give them to me now? What about the ones he has in CA? Should he start shipping them to me now? What do you all think? (Even better, what do you know?)

I live in AK. There would be no crazy looks--just jealous ones. Sounds like trigger conversion is the way to go. What's the typical going rate for a gunsmith to do the trigger conversion? Maybe it would be worth buying one stock and then getting it modified? Thanks again.

Thanks for the info. Very helpful. Is it preferable to have the trigger moved forward or is the stock config fine? Obviously it's somewhat desirable because you moved yours forward. I read one review that said the trigger pull was awkward on the standard rifle. It would be an online purchase so I won't be able to open it and look inside. Any more thoughts?

I'm planning to buy an S-12 in the next day or two. I need information, and quickly (they are going fast). I notice that there is the occasional conversion to pistol grip. One that I saw for sale says that "the trigger configuration was moved forward by a professional gunsmith." Is that trustworthy? Is it a big deal to do that operation? Is it possible to buy one from the factory with the pistol grip? I saw another one with a pistol grip kit. Are those any good? Is it better to get the trigger moved forward? Please advise. I would like to join your ranks.
