Can I trade a hand gun from Al to Fl private owners??

[Stanley13]

Had back and forth answers and no clear luck looking it up for myself. If I a Alabama resident want to trade a hand gun to a Florida resident for a long gun is that ok with only bill of sale and no shops involved?

No, if it were a long gun for a long gun, that would be okay. But you can not transport a handgun across state lines without going through an FFL.

Chief doesn't know what he's talking about Stanley, it's completely fine! In fact, when you get across the FL line, let me know and I will have on of my Walton Co. Sheriff buddies meet you and you can ask him, lol.... What ya end up doing with that Russian sniping rifle?

Can you sell/trade long guns? I was under the impression that FL/AL residents could only buy across state lines from an FFL, not individuals.

 

[Ben Ghazi]

some things you just do and don't talk about if you know what I mean.
It is illegal to be an illegal in the United States but .......... your rewarded for doing it
I didn't see any clause in the 2nd amendment about a state line

 

[Rebuilt]

There is also no clause about full auto or sbr in the second amandement either. Cover your butt stanley and go through an ffl. It will save you if there is a problem. Now do such transactions take place, yes i would say they do daily. But my luck is so crappy I would get poped first time lol.
