Quoted: Ummm... I don't know about that, but I imagine "you" could buy it [;)] and he could "lend" you the money. It would then be "yours" and you could repay the "loan" when he leaves. That sounds legal enough... |

According to what you wrote, in the end the rifle would be yours. So, just skip that first step and take your friend shooting with your rifle.

Depending on your state laws, there is nothing wrong with him
making a private purchase from an individual for a gun. |

No if he has been residing in the state for more than 90 days (utility bills), and has a driver license or such identifications AND a state-issued hunting license, he legally can.
Of course thats what feds say and you might see more restrictions on state-level. |

Hey I'm a Limey and I own three AK's, hold on I'm not a gentleman. Guess this has very little to do with me.

Visitors on non-immigrant visas are not allowed to purchase weapons.
Exception may be if has a hunting licence. The 4473 specifically asks for an alien registration #. (Thats on your green card.) |

Given the way NICS has been for non-residents as far as requiring additional paerwork and documentation, I figure if he starts the process now they may approve him with a couple weeks to enjoy the gun before he goes back home.

Quoted: huh? so an english gentleman is sophisticated enough to want a kalashnikov? cool. [ROFL2] Chuck, Be sure to show your friend which end of the rifle is the muzzle and which end is the butt, it's probably been awhile since he's seen a gun. |

It usually takes me an extra 15-40 minutes for NICS checks. The extra time is for them to call INS.

The sad, sad state of affairs in the UK is just about that. [:(] I've taken him shooting with my Bushy and he does OK. He saw an ad for a barely used SAR-1 for $250 on my club bullentin board and has been tossing the idea around in his ever head since. I told him how cheap the 7.62 Russian ammo is and that's made him want one even more. |

If I am not mistaken, one of the most recent ATFE rulings had to do with Immigrants on Visas and gun purchases, meaning they can't buy them.
No real loss. I don't believe the English should be trusted with arms anyway. [:p] |
