Oklahoma private gun sales???

[GorillaG]

I’m pretty sure that Oklahoma LEOs are not allowed to run legally carried guns, but I vaguely recall some PD or another offering to check serial numbers to make sure the guns aren’t stolen property. But I could be pulling Tampon Tim on that memory.

20 yrs ago I had a kinda shady looking guy come to a yard sale where I had some holsters and ammo but no guns. He looked around then asked if I wanted to buy a pistol. It was a very good price and I hesitated for a minute then I thought "hell I've probably bought several hot guns over the years and never even knew it". So I bought it but later on I decided to give it to my son as a gift. I sure didn't wanna give him a hot gun so I asked a LEO buddy if he could run a check for me, he did, it wasn't hot. I was a bit surprised but I have never heard it was not allowed. Seems kinda like a public service. I always thought pawn shops had access to a "hot gun" data base but my local pawn shop said nope, they just roll the dice.

My private messaģes saved from members on this forum to me over the last few years gives me a list of people I might be inclined to do some metal barter with and all are fine upstanding lowlifes I probably should know better than to hang out with but what momma don't know........should I ever need to verify where some unknown piece of steel was now or came to me from, but then I am old and memory slippin daily

Cops will run a gun, but they have to have it in hand when they do it. If it’s stolen, they keep it in their hand…..
