Gun Disposal

Safe Guns in Safe Places for Safe Families

Gun disposal

Our Orange County gun destruction and removal services are requested for several reasons:

  • 1

    If a firearm is found to be unsafe to use, cannot be repaired and has no historical value.

    California Gun Services will permanently destroy it by torching the receiver or frame into three parts or cutting it with a saw into five parts. I will document this with photos and log it for the Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms. After our Orange County gun destruction services are complete, I will email proof of destruction to my customer.

  • 2

    If a gun has been used in a crime or suicide and a person wants it permanently destroyed.

  • 3

    If a gun cannot be legally sold or owned in California, one option is to destroy it.

Before and After Gun Disposal

Bump Stock

Bump stocks are now federally illegal In the United States. I removed one from a firearm to help a customer comply and completed gun disposal.

Handgun

One reason to use our Orange County firearm removal and destruction services is if the gun is a cheap (Saturday night special) or deemed unsafe.

Rifle

This rifle was a home built. after a recent law change in July 2019 this rifle would have become an illegal assault weapon. By destroying the receiver the owner protected himself from a felon weapon violation.

What Our Clients Are Saying

My son inherited 4 guns from his father, 2 handguns and 2 AR’s. While he had been out shooting with his father, he didn’t know much more about them or the laws surrounding owning the guns. I reached out to Jeff McCabe to see if he could help us. Jeff researched to make sure that my son could legally own the guns, he showed him how to take them apart, clean them and put them back together.  Jeff also went over the proper way to store and transport the guns. Most importantly he went over my son’s responsibilities as a gun owner. Jeff let my son know there was always an open door if he ever needed help in the future. I truly appreciate Jeff’s knowledge and the time he took to help us.

Five years ago, I found myself suddenly raising my 18-year-old son and 19-year-old daughter on my own.  My husband of 21 years passed away unexpectedly, and now I was solely responsible on all decisions when it came to my children who still lived at home. Aside from getting through the obvious, I was concerned with the firearms my husband had stored in our home. I wasn’t sure how to handle the two hand guns and three shotguns that were used for recreational use by my husband. I was worried that my son or his friends may have interest in them and did not want any “accidents” happening. I then turned to Jeff McCabe for his advice as he came highly recommended.  Jeff then educated my children and I on the safety of guns, how to handle them, store them and transport them.  He also took the time to show my son how to load, unload and clean them. He advised me to purchase a gun safe, in which I did, and he installed it for me.  One of the guns had become illegal with recent law changes and Jeff altered it to make sure it was compliant with California Laws.  He also encouraged my son to take a safety class, which he has recently signed up for.  I now feel safe and comfortable with having the firearms in my home, knowing my children and I have now been educated on safe handling; I owe that to Jeff McCabe.  If I ever should need help in the future, I would seek Jeff’s expertise again.

    There are many things to deal with when a loved one dies. In 2010, when cleaning out my husbands closet, I came across several of his guns.  I didn’t want to keep them and was unsure what to do with them.  My daughters didn’t want the guns and I didn’t want to have to deal with hassle of storing them as my grandchildren are often at my house.  A friend mentioned I should call Jeff McCabe. 
    Jeff was very nice, easy to talk with, trustworthy and knowledgeable.  He came to my house, checked all the guns to make sure they were unloaded and removed them. Jeff also told me one the guns was a collector’s item and was able to sell it for me.  One less thing to worry about.  I cannot recommend Jeff enough.
