How to do this legally?

I promise that I will use proper grammar from now on. In a situation of such high stress, such as what I just experienced, I had no time for grammar and proper punctuation. I apologize. Thanks to the people who didn't jump to conclusions and villify me.

Thanks for the legal opinion. Even though I should know better, I made an assumption based on partial knowledge and no direct experience. Assuming the seller is legally able to sell, and the buyer is a legally qualified buyer, can this be corrected by going through the process after the fact? Is there some room to consider good intentions and ignorance of the law as long as every effort is made to comply now that all is understood?

My original reply in this thread was designed to edjucate readers on what the requirements of the law are. Answering the question quoted above would be more like giving legal advice, which could create an attorney-client relationship, something I'm not about to do on an Internet forum.

A self-created "crisis"

" In a situation of such high stress, such as what I just experienced, I had no time for grammar and proper punctuation. I apologize. Thanks to the people who didn't jump to conclusions and villify [sic] me."

1. The only "stress" was that you created by purchasing a firearm in a real/proposed/whatever your present excuse is interstate transfer without an FFL.

2. As you've posted on this subject TWICE before, had you bothered to pay attention to the answers, you should now have a clue as to the process. That you didn't/don't shows you ignore advice you solicited.

3. No-one jumped to conclusions; they took you at your (worthless) word; i.e., that you TOOK THE FIREARM ACROSS STATE LINES. You know, the scenario you now admit lying about.

Given that you have:

a. Posted on this subject twice before,

b. Changed your story about the transfer, and

c. Can't distinguish between a rifle and a shotgun,

my conclusion from all this is that you are terminally obtuse or a troll.

Which is it?

dUH. I don't get it. Does the transaction have to go thru an FFL only because the buyer and seller are residents of two different states? I can't sell a long gun directly to another CA resident?

Riley,

Thats because you don't live in a free state.

Go North young man, (or east, either way works). Most states allow you to do private party transactions, no paper work required as long as the seller and buyer are both residents of the same state.
