Question about out of state.

[Control for Smilers]

lol

As a buyer I don’t care where the seller lives, or if he even has a carry permit.

A buyers obligation is to meet in Georgia (or their current state of residence), be 18 years or older and be legally allowed to own firearms... that is i

Wrong. If you knowingly bought a gun from an out of state resident,

you'd at least be a party to the seller's crime.

And maybe a co-conspirator .

Why? seems like he was tryin to get me caught up.

Calling the ATF on someone who simply ghosted you is just plain wrong. And I assure you, based solely on what you've described here they couldn't care less.

 

[Control for Smilers]

probably right. I was more concerned about him getting people in trouble unwittingly. I doubt id ever call any 3 letter anything, was just curious. seems like this dude has probably sold a lot of pistols in GA. or maybe he is just ignorant. should get moved to the pasture soon

 

[C'mon man!]

Could have been worse, you could have met up to do the deal, then find out they aren't a GA resident.

yeah id be pissed about the drive and gas. and not getting the 1911, lol.

Personally i think you did right. And i am against and hate any BOS, paperwork trail, id checks, etc., ..... but that does not say that you should not do your due diligence to satisfy curiosity if something makes you suspicious. In this case the SC ad in another thread of his.

You handled it correctly, just move on . My .02

Nah, he was probably a scofflaw who didn't really know the law, and once you told him about it, didn't care. He'll move on and try to find another person who is ignorant or criminally willing to deal with him.

That's why God invented flea markets, so the simple minded wouldn't get confused by all these technicalities.

Just meet at the Anderson Jockey Lot. Anything goes on the lot.

You sure? I mean the government is really understanding when people simply didn't know they were doing something wrong........

I mean the nice ATF agent that asked about all the solvent traps I bought on Amazon was super polite and my gun barrels have never been cleaner.
