Hi everyone first time poster.
I am a Nacogdoches native and purchased a Taurus .357 in December of 2008 in Texas. Since then I have moved to Norman, OK to attend graduate school and am needing to sell the revolver for some extra money.
My question is if it is legal to do a FTF transfer with an Oklahoma resident? I posted this question on OKshooters.com and was told that I had to get an FFL in BOTH states to make the sell and that selling directly to a resident of another state is a federal crime. Can someone verify this? If so, how does one go about setting up something like that? It sounds very complicated if it is true?
I'd just as soon sell the revolver to a Texas resident and to a FTF transfer but I only get to go to Texas about once every six weeks and don't think buyers would want to wait until my next trip into the state. Is it possible to use an FFL here in Oklahoma and have them ship the revolver to the buyer?
Sorry, I am kind of new to selling and buying all around. Any help is appreciated!
