out of State SG Purchase
I am considering purchasing a SG from someone out of state (WV) and was wondering what the rules and regulations for doing this?
Since theyr are an adjoining state...does that make a difference?

Re: out of State SG Purchase
Go to gunbroker.com and "Find a Dealer" near you. Have him send, or you send a copy of his FFL to the seller. Pay for the SG. Have the seller send the SG to the Dealer. Go and pick it up. DO NOT let the dealer collect sales tax. Dealers charge from 15 to 60 $ for a Transfer. The dealer pays the state $2 for the no tax transfer. The dealer needs to "log" the firearm into the Bound Book and back out, make a toll free phone call and send to the state a record of transfers every 14 days. The fees (State) are the same for long guns and handguns. Handguns do require one more from to be filled out. I charge $15, that's about a dollar a minute, but I have low overhead. (BTW, "no tax" transfers for ANY number for firearms is just $2. Example, guy orders 20 M44 from Aim Surplus comes in and pays one $15 xfer. The state fee is still $2)

Re: out of State SG Purchase
I have a Dealer with a FFL near my house that I use quite often.
So the Seller will have to ship it to the Dealer...
doesn't sound like a Face to Face is possible.... because of the out of state purchase... that sucks.
Thanks for the info

Re: out of State SG Purchase
All interstate transfers, except bequeathed firearms, has to go through a FFL. There is no such thing as an interstate Face-to-Face deal - unless you want to break federal law.
For handguns -
a. all interstate firearms has to be transfered through a FFL in the receiving party's state.
For long guns -
a. it either has to be shipped to a FFL in the receiving party's state for transfer.
b. the seller has to transfer it to a FFL in his home state - then a nonresident can receive it from the FFL in the seller's state*
