Comment on An honor
I
I feel like I would sell this on ebay or something. Jesus.
You know that, even in the US, you can’t just sell a gun online and ship it to their house, right?
In fact, someone without a federal firearms dealer’s license can’t transfer a handgun to ANYONE who lives in a different state at all.
Oh. In that case I’ll give it to my son and tell him on Christmas day that his uncle killed himself with it.
“santa killed your uncle with it to make sure it works”
You can sell a gun online, the transfer just has to go through an FFL holder who will run required background checks.
Yee Yee that’s what they mean by not able to ship it to their house
I think you could, black powder weapons are regulated weirdly. But yeah anything that uses modern powder would need to be sold to a gun shop.
Black powder weapons aren’t legally firearms, yeah.
Silencerco took advantage of this once and made the Maxim 50. I don’t think many people bought it, but it was made just to utilize that loophole.
