Some guy from OK wants to buy one of my rifles and hes willing to drive down here to pay cash.  My question, is it legal to do a private transfer with someone who holds an out of state DL or should I make him meet me at a FFL and have them do the transfer?  Any input please, I havent found anything in the codes on this one...

There is a rumor that if the buyer resides in a neighboring state then you (the seller) can FTF a rifle (not handgun) from you. MANY folks think this is still true. It is not, gone since FOPA in '86. If he wants to get your rifle it's easy- either send to his FFL in OK or let him drive down and go to a gun store, pawn shop, whatever and do an 'in and out' across the FFLs books. He will probably have to pay the FFL for a transfer but no big deal.

I've had FFL's at shows in Louisiana tell me that a private individual over there can sell me (a Texas resident) a longarm without FFL involvement.

Quoted: I've had FFL's at shows in Louisiana tell me that a private individual over there can sell me (a Texas resident) a longarm without FFL involvement. I can top that. I have seen Chiefs of Police in New Orleans think they can go house to house and confiscate guns.

I can top your FFL:

I have had ATF AGENTS(!) tell me that a neighbor-state transfer FTF is ok- then call me back and tell me not so!

Well, I think that just about beats this one down.  Found someone down the street willing to pay more anyway.  Again, I appreciate the knowledge around here....
