Using the word "regulated" the pawn shop is telling people its not legal to sell guns privately. I see this as a scare tactic to direct sales their way. Salisbury Gun Club member died, wife took his Win. 101 guns there for price value. She was paid little over $100 each for the collection. These guns were worth thousands and she was taken advantage of. Not like the TV show with experts, its money and advantage over the unknowing.
IT IS LEGAL TO SELL "REGULATED" (HANDGUNS, SOME LISTED ASSUALT WEAPONS) PRIVATLY. Just must have state paper work done before the person takes possession. Guns are not registered, but the buyer shows he or she is legal to buy them. Cost $10 check fee and paper work.
So it is LEGAL,
SELLING LONG GUNS, HUNTING RIFLES OF ALL TYPE AND OR SHOTGUNS. IS "LEGAL"
to sell to any resident of this state. Just not allowed to sell to a person YOU know to be a drug addict or criminal. Simply ask the person. Do you have a record? are you a drug user? if the answer is no, you may sell this adult (over age 18) your personal firearms.
Sent WBOC this same info and waiting for a response.
No person needs to be goaded into selling to a pawn shop for fear of breaking the law. Especially when some can be taken advantage of.
