I don't see how buying a gun at a show is more risky than buying a gun out of the Nickel?
The idea that buying a gun that is not registered to you through a FFL gun dealer is unsafe (HOW?) makes about as much sense as Obama's aversion to black rifles.

It seems that yes there is a chance that a private person selling a a gun could sell one to a felon, they could sell one that is stolen. This of course is putting the burden on the seller while ignoring the fact that if it is illegal for a person who is a criminal to OWN the gun or POSSESS the gun. They are the criminal, it would put more repeat offenders in jail to enforce that.
RICO Law enforcement would end gang violence immediately in this country and gun crime would drop off faster in a year than your 401K did. (I am not sure why that would be bad but I am often called a racist for this point of view.)

And after you stop by your local PD and ask them to check if your new gun needs to be confiscated, you’ll want to stop be the nearest Dept of Revenue office so you can pay the use tax on it.
Ptui....foookum.

It is amazing that somebody might actually buy a gun privately, exercising their Federal and State Constitutional right to do so (Their Duty IMO) :mgun:
It is sickening! (It Makes me proud)

Members of the WA Arms Collectors have to either submit to a background check or have a current CWP to buy or sell guns on the grounds.

The guys that even post on this forum in the classifieds 'WTB HANDGUN, ASAP!!'....kinda makes me wonder.
I've bought and sold plenty of guns throught private deals, but most of them were folks I knew. A couple guns I still wonder about. But, I think its good to have a few with no paper trail.
Post by: thinkingman on March 30, 2009, 08:49:48 AM
I've bought and sold both handguns and rifles that way. Funny thing the most suspicious guy I've seen trying to sell a handgun was a local guy that is a reserve deputiy sherrif.Not to get off topic but the most suspicious guy I ever sold a car to was a reserve deputy sheriff....paid me $11000 cash.
I wouldn't exactly assume being a reserve deputy sheriff makes for clean hands.
I would buy from an individual at a gun show. At WAC, you have to be a member and to be a member, pass a background check.

No really, some guy having the nerve to lawfully sell his private weapon at a gun show? (The Horror) :mgun2:

I have bought many guns at the the gun show, and I would never think twice about buying another.

Actually, becoming a reserve deputy sheriff requires the individual passing each and every extensive background and psycological background check as do regular officers. No difference.

Would you purchase a rifle or handgun at a gun show from someone walking around advertising it? :dunno:Yes!
I've bought and sold both handguns and rifles that way. Funny thing the most suspicious guy I've seen trying to sell a handgun was a local guy that is a reserve deputy sheriff.
And I sell them that way too.
If the person raises the hairs on the back of your neck then don't. Otherwise do the deed!!!!!!!!!

don't go to new york state...you can't own a pistol in NY unless you have a permit and then the pistol is registered to your permit, thats the only way to legally own a pistol in NY.

Though that is technically true, it is not intirely accurate. Paperwork on every pistol you purchase is sent to the local law enforcement containing all the information as to who purchased what and the serial numbers. In general, the majority of the departments keep this on record even when they are not suppose to. Also the same info is kept at every gun store that you purchase from and it only requires someone like Mayor Bloomberg who has no respect for your second ammendment rites to force the store to turn over those documents.

Jackelope, no disrespect meant here but when I think of New York I always envision New York City one of the great cesspools of United States. No, I won't move there or Illinois, or California.QuoteAin't United States great we can buy guns and ammo without big brother sticking their big old crooked nose into it. God I love the USA
