If you're in Goleta, Santa Barbara, Carpinteria, or nearby areas and are faced with a Restraining Order (RO), Temporary Restraining Order (TRO), Gun Violence Restraining Order (GVRO), or are otherwise ordered to relinquish your firearms, ammunition, and magazines, we offer secure storage.
We recommend surrendering your firearms as soon as you are served, otherwise you may wait until you are ordered. Make sure your firearms are unloaded and bring them to the store in a case or gun sock. We understand that your paperwork needs to be filed expeditiously and electronically submit it while you wait. If you don’t have the DV-800/JV-252 form we can print it out and complete our portion.
After the RO, TRO, or GVRO are dropped and rights restored you must return to the store and complete an Application to Purchase a Firearm (4473) and background check (DROS). Wait 10 days and if approved, pickup your firearms. Your ammunition and magazines will be returned with your firearms.
Whether you're a traveler seeking secure firearm storage during your absence or a student or resident in a firearm-restricted environment, we offer both short and long-term secure storage options.
