in selling a long gun, In Texas, from one Texan to another,,does it have to go thru an ffl OR can the seller direct ship to buyer??? i can meet bubba on the street, sell him my shotgun, shake hands and walk away.. whats the difference if I ship it to bubba?? |
why do you need proof you sold it to bubba? Gun found at crime scene. Cops call Manufacturer then distributor, then ffl then you. They say a gun you purchased was found at a crime scene. You say I sold that gun a while back at a gun show. No I don’t remember when, where or what the guy looked like. Cops want an alibi, So you tell them the truth and they go away. |

I think I have seen this question on here about 100 times. Texas is a free state, some of you people keep mistaking it for IL or MA. If you want to buy or sell a firearm, go ahead and do it. You don't need the .gov permission to do it (yet). Afterall, it is just another tool. |

you are the best Sir..thank you.. |
Its a good idea to have one, here's my alibi, heres who I sold it to, his DL #, when I sold and here is my lawyer's number if you have any more questions. You say you dont remember anything about the guy you sold it to, they are gonna look at you real hard |
Why? I am not required to keep any receipts, I have no criminal record and no other connection to the crime. Now if my MIL was killed with the gun, I might need an alabi.
