Thoughts on "Bill Of Sale" Firearms Trades/ Purchases

LOL. Never thought about that. I'm the original 62 Bravo baby!

Did you get to ride bus 62b to the big house?

Quick question. Very quick, and I RESPECT your opinion.

Have you ever sold a car to an individual? And if so, did you have a BOS?

Cars are registered in GA unfortunately, but fortunately guns are not. A car BoS is used to assess sales tax and that is another interesting point. Could gun sales records be used to tax us?

Dozens upon dozens for me and in Georgia for vehicles older than 1988 a BOS is all thats needed for a new owner to register a car- No title required~

Also don't need emissions, and tend to have extremely high mileage..Unless you're buying a classic car. Then you want the original title.

Try getting a tag for a car with no title, and see how easy it is with that bill of sale... You still need a title

Only if the car is newer than 1988 in Georgia.

not true.....I have and have had many tagged and insured jeeps with only a bos....depends on the year in Ga

Prove I sold guns. Those I traders were from buying posters of fireman calendars, trading pokemon cards with other members, and performing oral favors to avoid a ban... I never once sold a gun

Guns are personal property and counties can assess personal property taxes. They get me for about 2K a year for just equipment that I own.

If a prosecutor had a real hard-on for you, could he use your bills of sale as evidence of tax evasion?

Municipalities are increasingly broke and I could see one giving this a try.

Anything is possible..

I truly don't understand the folks who are so dead set against a Bill of Sale.

Every gun that I have ever bought or sold (until I started trading on the ODT) I exchanged a bill of sale with the other party. This is the only place where I have ever run across someone who, not only doesn't want one, but will not buy a gun from you if you want one. Go Figure!!

Just my 2 cents worth!!
