Whats with ???

post in the For Sale firearms on here and other boards lately ?
While i might be under the misguided impression that gun sales in state are a casual transaction, between 2 non-ffl folks. I am seeing a fair amount of For Sale ads where the seller insist that the buyer go through a BG check/ 4473 sale.
Granted i know some are going to say "if you don't want to do the BG check, don't buy it"
doesn't that defeat the casual sale theory?

AH for the days of casual sales w/o BG checks @ gunshows.

imho, most of it is the kaliforniacaters, and other commie out of staters that have influxed here after they made their home states uninhabitable, and are now trying to crap on our's, and in reality dont really know any better. I seen a phrase a while back that I really liked, but I dont remember where that stated, the only thing worse to see in colorado than a texas license plate is a u-haul with plates from california

The only thing worse would be the ads that show too much enthusiasm for the paperless transaction.

"WTB today, any model Glock, FTF only"


ummm, yeah

I like/prefer the FTF sale laws we have here in CO and wish gunshow sales would have never changed. I also feel the main reason people sell this way is to remove their name from the paperwork, thus removing them from any future trouble/questions if the firearm was ever used in an illegal manner, stolen, or whatever the case may be.

Hey now! I'm wanting to buy any handgun yesterday, not even FTF is good enough. I want us both to wear bags on our heads as we drive by each other in a parking lot and I'll toss the cash through his car window as he throws the gun through mine. I also want us both to have car covers on with the window areas cut out see we can't see each others car make and model.

Part of the reason I try to buy local, is BECAUSE I don't have to put that gun on the confiscation list.
(ya right, I forgot, there is no list. [/sarcasm])

The seller sets the rules for his sale, and I have clicked OFF of a listing, because of the seller's rules. Most of the time a handshake will do. Occasionally I have provided, or wanted, a bill of sale, which I don't have a problem with. Some are satisfied if they can see your CCW. (if you have one) But to require a 4473 and a background check, for a face to face private sale??? I don't think so. There will be another gun along shortly.
