Black powder handguns don't need anything special done with them when selling, just like a rifle or shotgun. However, you still need to understand that a prohibited person can't even buy a black powder gun. Just take the typical precautions that you would take when selling a long gun FTF.

Only paper required is the dollar bills and sales slip.

Thats interesting b/c my little brother (15 at the time) purchased a black powder revolver from cabela's last year by himself.
I don't see any mechanisms to prevent prohibited persons from obtaining these guns? Yeah, when they get caught they may get into trouble, but that is about the only way I can see that the state is enforcing this.
