Gen4What Generation Glock 26?
Wow Bill Shakespeare couldn't have said it betterSheesh, meet F-F, If buyer, look at gun, If happy show money. Money and gun changes hands. Bye CUL. No Bill of Sale or showing ID BS. If you don't trust buyer why should he trust you? Money is money, a stolen gun being sold is not cool. As seller if you're not happy don't sell. BUT state your terms up front. IE: want BOS, want to see CCL, want to see DL.
Simple to me. I have green, you have gun. Want to trade, OK.
Do you need a stool sample? I have one ready.When I sell a deadly weapon to someone I don't know, I always require fingerprints, photographs, four types of government identifications, blood sample, family background, passport, and above all, the wonderful ................ BILL OF SALE!
The last few times I only sold personal guns to close friends or trusted coworkers where worrying about felony convictions is not an issue.
You may think that but if I became a felon for some reason I sure would not be telling people I know.
The only problem with that is everyone here is a cheap bastard. Myself included!Just sell it here.
There was one time a long time ago where I sold a revolver to a stranger at a flea market. Simple exchange of cash and revolver and we both went on...
You do it for vehicles because registration is required by law.I dont think its a terrible idea to have a bill of sale and at least look at ID. Certainly not a requirement but not a bad idea. If the buyer freaked out about it, that could indicate a problem to me. You aren't running a background check, just documenting a transfer of ownership. The same thing I do with vehicle sales.
But as others have posted, most of my private sales have been between friends or people I at least know and there was no question about the bill of sale. It really seemed expected.

Bill of sale is useless for vehicles, too. You need the title and a Form 130-U.The same thing I do with vehicle sales.
Please explain why a BOS will CYA and post an example of where it has done this in the real world( firearm BOS)Wow.. Such passion! I'm still of the opnion that its not a bad idea and a little CYA can go a long way. It's not like its being filed anywhere except in my own personal records.

I can most assuredly post an example of where one was used to prosecute someone.
Negative. If you have knowledge that the person is not legally able to buy a firearm, then you would/could be in violation. As in, if he said, ".....I just got out of prison for armed robbery, etc. but would you sell me your gun?". Then you might be in trouble for selling it to him.I always thought that under federal law the seller had to know who they were selling to, i.e. see ID, if they did not "know" the buyer, but no requirement to document. is this incorrect?
