So when are you coming down with some cash to buy some of my guns ? Heck, I don't need anymore guns.
Besides, wouldn't want you to get in trouble with the feds for selling guns without a license.
I'd like to have 1% of all the gun sale $ in Virginia by folks who are not federal licensed dealers............... private parking lot transactions, auctions, gun shows, yard sales, flea markets etc.etc.. Come to Virginia and get anything you want...no questions asked. |

Come to Virginia and get anything you want...no questions asked. Private sales are completely legal. I have noticed the VA State Police will now conduct a background check at gun shows for private sellers, charging $2. To me, that would be simple insurance...a nominal transaction fee. Just to make sure one of your guns didn't end up in the commission of a crime. At auctions and raffles, the winner of the weapon generally must pass a background check in order to take possession. The folks that are putting the weapon up, as well as the auctioneer wouldn't want to take on that legal risk, IMO. |

Any background checking there ?The more I think about our planet leading gun violence problem the more I think ammo control might be the best approach. |

California, as you might expect, is the most restrictive. In general, executors of estates in CA must have a FFL conduct a background on the recipient.
Many weapons in CA on fully restricted against transfer on death - .50 cal BMG rifles, assaults rifles, UZIs - basically anything under the NFA of 1934. Most people do not and cannot own these types of weapons.
They must be destroyed, turned in to police, sold to an FFL or removed from CA.
Inter-family transfers of shotguns and handguns are permitted from parent-to-child, or parent-to-grandchild, as long as recipient is 18.
Many states have used Gun Trusts as an effective vehicle for transference of weapons. CA does not allow this.
In many cases, simply transporting a firearm can cause lots of headaches. Many of the states above Virginia have draconian gun laws, including for those who are just passing thru on the interstate.
A simple traffic ticket stop can easily result in a felony if you aren't careful. Like say, if I were going hunting in Maine and drive from VA....the weapon must be unloaded, separated from ammo, in a locked case and not within reach of the driver, and maybe other restrictions.
And carrying a weapon to the airport isn't so bad, but I usually get a few looks at the counter when I pull it out for inspection and unloading.

I'm impressed how you can keep up with all these state laws.

If I was a wise ass, I would say that the state of the decendent is dead.
