Someone please enlighten me. I'm not trying to start a pissing match, but I have a problem I just can't put together. When I buy, sell or trade a firearm on this site, RMGO or any place local (not out of state) of course. Why do so many want a "bill of sale" or paper work completed for the deal? I purposely find what I am looking for on a local Colorado site or forum to keep from doing that very thing. I understand and agree to the fact that you show me yours and I'll show you mine. That is proof or residence, age and I factor in my gut feeling too. If I show you my CDL or CCW and you do the same for me, isn't that enough for a legal ftf deal here? What am I missing? I have even seen the bill of sale deal and then go to an FFL to complete the trade or transfer. When I buy, sell, or trade with a dealer I'm good to go with it. But a face to face from a local? I have passed up 2 hand guns since Thursday last week just for that reason.
Thanks for letting me have the space for my little RANT and sorry if I set some of you off by doing it, but what say you on my little peeve?
