CT guys--selling to CT
3/12/2012 3:27:48 PM
Gents,
I have a good friend of mine who just moved to CT. He is looking at buying my mini 14 gb, which is a 1981 stainless. Whats the story––-can I do a private sale to him, or do I have to do a full transfer?

Send it to a Connecticut FFL- the feds say-so.

Ok––-whats the story then––does he have to apply for a lawful possesion permit for an Assault Weapon? What are the steps?

Just to clarify.... This is just a Mini-14 GB, right? Not the "F" version with a folding stock?
If it is a regular old stainless Mini-14, just do an FFL transfer like the Feds want you to. If he doesn't have a pistol permit or a hunting license he needs to wait 2 weeks.

Or, if he hasn't yet changed his state of residency and still has a residence in RI then he can buy from you while in RI

i thought you could do a ftf sale of long guns, without the need for a transfer or the use of an ffl here in ct.

Yes it is a full stocked stainless gb.
He has his LTC.

One gun store we talked to in ct said this was the case.
Just curious as neither one of us want him to get in trouble!

We can do a FTF sale, but it has to be one CT resident to another CT resident. The issue here is federal law, since you are a RI resident, and he is a CT resident it must go through an FFL.
Since it is a full stock mini-14 you are good to go as far as the CT AWB.

missed the part that he was in RI.

You should confirm that the GB is pre-ban (made before 1994). Perhaps they all are- I don't recall. The GBs have bayonet lugs and flash hiders, so a post-ban one would be an Evil Assault Weapon and non-importable into CT.
