Firearm Return Steps
If you are eligible to have your firearm returned, California requires a formal clearance process:
- Submit a Law Enforcement Gun Release (LEGR) to the Department of Justice
- Eligibility Review by the Department of Justice
- Contact Local Law Enforcement to arrange the return once cleared
Return Scenarios
- Safekeeping: Begin Department of Justice clearance within 180 days; contact law enforcement within 30 days of receiving clearance
- Evidence: Wait until the criminal case closes; obtain clearance from the District Attorney
- Domestic Violence: Return within five business days unless held as evidence
- Mental Health Incident: Return allowed after a five-year prohibition if restrictions are lifted
