Get the money first.
What is a notarized BOS going to accomplish and why wait 30 days?Postal Money Order. In advance. Notarized bill of sale. In advance. Wait 30 days before shipping.
Of everything posted so far, this is the correct answer.Money first and shipped to an FFL would be the only way I would do it. May be a legitimate and legal buyer. If so then sell it but on your terms.

get a postal money order and before shipping take the money order to the post office and convert it to cash. I would not deposit it into a checking account as it can take weeks for a forgery to show up at that point you lost the gun and the cash.

I am the alleged scammer, and this is exactly what I offered, " Your price is acceptable, would you be willing to accept a postal money order AND ship via a FFL and I would pay for any shipping , ffl fees etc. " the only reason I asked is to avoid a 4 hour drive. I have no problem with him holding the gun until he has cash in hand. Postal money orders are the safest form of payments, thats why I offered it.
I usually do not participate much on this forum, thats why a low post count..but I do read and learn. I do have a good trader record on a different forum
ps still interested in the gun, be interesting to see if I get a response and can work out someting agreeable to the seller
Shady, was not referencing to you, but to "themailman", the starter of this post, I contacted him with an offer as I stated above and his reply was to jump to a conclusion and call me a scammer, no conversations beyond that, I am still open to negotiations with him on the gun. the Quotes from you and Dawico were to show that my offer was considered typical. Sorry if I offended you
Welcome and I hope you find what you are looking for.I

Well, I guess I better start posting more just in case I want to buy something one day. Joined the forum back in 2015 when I moved to Texas from Louisiana. I moved back to LA in 2016, but travel to Texas once a month for work. Still follow the forum, but don't post. Would hate to be a scammer one day!I

So, if you are not a legal resident of Texas, how would you be able to do a private sale purchase here?Well, I guess I better start posting more just in case I want to buy something one day.
