Hello all.
I had a curious question that relates to private sales in Florida. I am well versed on the carry and transport laws thanks greatly in part to this site ( along with FL statutes ) but have a curious question. I purchased a pistol from a friend face to face all well and good. He originally purchased it from a local FFL. We haven't done a FFL transfer yet and I haven't read anywhere where it's necessary. We are good friends and I know the weapon's history. If I am driving and stopped, inform the LEO that I have the pistol do I need to show sale papers without a FFL transfer? He gave me the original purchase paperwork and we wrote up a quick sale doc as well. Could there be an issue there? I was wondering how big of a deal it was. TIA.
