Can someone under 21 sell a handgun in their name through an FFL?
Hey everyone.
Quick question. My dad gave me a couple of his old guns a while back, including a few handguns. One of the handguns is an older revolver and frankly I have no interest in it. Can I legally sell it to a dealer? Or can I list it in the classifieds and sell it there but then have it transferred through a FFL? I'm only 20, and I'm not sure on the laws regarding the sale of a handgun under 21. For a sale to someone on the classifieds, from what I've gathered through Goggle; I meet the person at the FFL, They do a PICS check on myself and the person buying the gun, the buyer does the transfer paperwork, and I'm done. Is that the standard procedure? Or am I still wrong? I'm trying to see if selling it through a FFL would be legal, but if not, I'll simply wait the few more months until I'm 21.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!Last edited by RambaRal; October 30th, 2011 at 10:59 PM.

Yes you can but for whatever reason the sale fails after you transfer it into the FFL book and custody, the FFL will NOT be able to give it back to you
Being a firearm, you have to go through an FFL or Sheriff since the buyer does not meet a family member per exception in the statute.Last edited by BimmerJon; October 30th, 2011 at 11:01 PM.

So as long as the buyer passes the PICS check and I pass the PICS check I should be fine? Do they even do a PICS check on me? In the case it gets cancelled because the buyer gets denied or something, will my dad have to come and get it then?
Thanks for the info so far though!

Correct me if im wrong but... I thought it was federal law that no one under 21 can own/posses a handgun.
There was no transfer between dad to son thus dad still owns handgun.
