Had a woman buy a gun from me that wanted the serial number to run it on that website, it wasn't stolen.
Same stuff different place happened to me auction house at 31st& Garnett Brandon’s auction house auctioned me a 6k stolen ring had cuffs and guns drawn on the wife and I. P/s the cop lady was Officer Adcock the one who leaked evidence in the Bever case. Steer clear of this place very scheming people working there. They also place people in the crowd that bid on their own items!I put it up for sale on armslist. I provided pics to a guy that requested them. Then the police contacted me.
It happened to a friend of mine. Stolen gun, he is out out of $1000. You never know its hot unless it was bought from a FFL dealer. Worst part is if you try to sell it or trade it later then you are in deep chit when it is hot. He took it to a gunsmith to have a scope mounted and when it was checked in by the FFL it came back as stolen two days later.Yep. If I have no prior knowledge of the item being stolen and I purchased it completely legally, whats the issue with me keeping it?
I would prefer to sell it back to the state or original owner if they want to pay a fair price. Now, as an individual, you could choose to just give it away but as far as I’m concerned, I bought it with no ill intent.
Imagine you spend $1000 on a gun, own it without issue for however long it is until you decide to sell it. Because a cop happens to be the one to try to buy it, you have no choice but to hand it over.
Should I go through all my firearms and have them checked to see the status of them according to the state and see if I need to give some away?
Do you think that’s fair? I’m open to hearing why I’m wrong here.
Bill of sale is extra caution.Good wisdom from all. I havn’t taken the bill of sale route. Normally, I record the person’s make/model of car, tag number, phone number and name. I also ask for a DL just to ensure OK resident. In this case I failed to record his name. But I did capture the other things and passed that along to the Det. Fast fwd to today, I have attempted to contact the guy that I traded with via phone call and text, he has not answered/replied. I believe I will be completing a police report on it just in case it ends up somewhere. I was hesitant on doing it just in case the gentleman was a victim too. But after the negative contact attempts I am just going to do it.
