This seller wanted a bill of sale and sprung it on me without disclosing it before meeting up today. I refused to sign it and he wasted both of our time. Over an hour drive for nothing.

Not sure what the problem is with signing a “Bill of Sale”.

Pretty typical in my experience to cover the seller if they bought a gun through a LGS and filled out the paperwork.

Fake news.

Too bad. It's a great piece and at a decent price.

To the OP ... the BOS has been debated over and over. There are those that don't mind giving personal information to a stranger and those that do over a piece of paper that can be so easily forged.

Sticking with a BOS requirement does decrease your sales audience.

That is really bad form to not disclose this up front. Shame on him.

The main problem is not disclosing it in your “for sale” listing so that most of the potential buyers on here can avoid you in droves.

It sold.
I am not going to sell anything, especially a firearm, without getting a Bill of Sale.
I had a FFL for over 30 years. In those 30 years I had two requests from the tracing service, to provide information on who I sold a firearm to. They had been used in a crime.
A Bill of Sale protects the seller in case a firearm they sell was used in a crime and recovered.
