Since then, I prefer to have a bill of sale when I buy a gun.
They will probably need to see your drivers license so they can enter the info into their logbook.
I ask for the driver license number and verify it. I had also bought a S&W snubby for my son in SoFlo and the seller was a cop who had asked for my D/L before we met. He checked it. I have no problem with that. If the seller has a problem with verifying his info, I will not make it mine. There are millions of guns out there and I have more than enough guns to satisfy my needs and wants, yet I need to protect my assets and do not want to waste tens of thousands of Dollars going to some defense lawyer.So when you buy the gun and get a bill of sale from the seller, how do you know the seller just didn't make all that stuff up? (phony license, IDs, etc.?)
I need to protect my assets and do not want to waste tens of thousands of Dollars going to some defense lawyer.
It's not that serious. You are free to invent your own personal gun control schemes and use bills of sale, as long as you state as much up front so we can avoid you, but making up hyperbole like this is uncalled for. You sound like a Texas law shield presentation.
There is no substitute for intelligence.
How does a bill of sale guarantee you’re not purchasing stolen goods, be it a firearm or something else?
Why would you need a defense lawyer?I ask for the driver license number and verify it. I had also bought a S&W snubby for my son in SoFlo and the seller was a cop who had asked for my D/L before we met. He checked it. I have no problem with that.

It doesn't but it will still represent some proof. It is a part of due diligence. On the other hand, if I see that I am buying from a serious and straight guy, I will not need it.
How will I know if it is a straight and honest person? I spent a life in sales with enough success to buy 17 Korth revolvers.
Exactly what I'm talking about.If the guy has a "Come and Take It" AR-15 sticker, he is okay. Probably.

See, I would be leery of YOU. Typically if doing a face to face transaction one party has item, other party has cash. If cash party does not like item, they go separate ways.Example: Just met an individual for a transaction. I had met the guy yesterday and took a look at the item. Our schedules would not align for meeting later for the purchase, so we met today. I was not fully comfortable until I met him. Older man, newish 4x4 truck, bullet shortie antenna, AR-15 Come and Take It sticker along with others(Eagle Scout and NRA to name two). Met at Cabela's since he works for a well known government defense contractor. Deal done in a couple of minutes.
