Yeah, and that's what I was trying to say in my earlier posts. Now I didn't know of specific cases involving handguns, but even trying to find cases I knew of I couldn't find on the internet, but I would get many sites asking to pay for searching cases, which of course I'm not going to do just to prove it happens.
Yes, but if a bill of sale can help in cases of most anything else, why wouldn't it work with firearms?
I certainly wouldn't doubt it would get you on some law enforcement radar if you sold quite a few.
Interesting point.
There's no question that BOS are (or can be) valuable when dealing with items for which there is a muniment of title (boats, vehicles, trailers, RVs, etc.).
No--I do BOS (signed by both parties), and signed title in selling/buying a vehicle in a private transaction. There is no need (in Texas) to have any of it notarized. The BOS is to show the County Tax Assessor/Collector to establish what was paid during the transaction. They'll either use that value (or a value from their sources) to establish the amount upon which you will pay sales tax along with the title transfer. If you have a signed BOS, you don't need the seller's signature on the application for title transfer form. But none of that is relevant here . . . unless this has become TexasMotorVehicleTitleTalk.
