+1 for Stuart!
I agree with BPTactical's thought process wholeheartedly. Unfortunately, in our current society, one must protect thy arse in everything you do.

“Every good citizen makes his country's honor his own, and cherishes it not only as precious but as sacred. He is willing to risk his life in its defense and is conscious that he gains protection while he gives it.” Andrew Jackson
A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'
That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
I can agree here. That means to me the non-cultivation of the thought that papertrails in private transactions are needed, as the norm, on firearms, when it is not required by law.
I think we need to start covering our collective arses instead of just our individual arses. Know what I mean?
Curious, has anybody made a FTF sale and the item been used in a crime later and had the paper trail lead back to them?
My own take on ID and BOS, I will show DL and CCW permit but will not allow info to be recorded and am not interested in BOS. Will ask if of age and resident and non-felon, if questionable ask to see ID, if I get "bad" vibes about person then no transaction anyway.
Haha. Exactly what I expected.

I apologize to the others involved in this thread, that I may have offended. I thought BPTactical was a retail seller due to his comment on being in retail. Plus the name, it sounds like a store. I apologize for that leap.
Personally, I don't have a problem with showing my id, other than I had thought before that it wasn't required by law to verify my state of residence.
I was corrected, and didn't have a problem with that. Ultimately I believe the seller can do what he wants, and can sell to who he wants. I just don't believe in government interference. Especially on our right to bear arms.
I don't believe a private seller can be held responsible for selling anything LEGAL to own to anybody. If anyone can come up with an incidence where a private seller has been held responsible for any kind of gun violence that a buyer has committed, I'd like to hear about it. I'm not doing any research on that, I got other things to do.
If a soldier came to buy a gun from me, and all he had was his military id, I'm not going to deny him the purchase. And about not knowing whether the buyer was old enough, etc, I was asking about out of state licenses, not no licenses or id at all.
