Baba and Grimp are sounding like a couple of pretentious twats.

You want to sell it to me, I'll take it.

Actually, the only 2 used ones I've bought were from members on here FTF, and I had a family member that works for DPS run the serial numbers both times (both times checked out). I'd never posses or carry a firearm without checking the history first. I'm sure there are other ways to check and I don't understand anyone who wouldn't, you're putting way too much trust in folks, and you're putting your own freedom at risk.

I stick to new purchases now, just personal preference.

This is what I follow as well.

You can absolutely call your local police department and ask them to run the serial number before purchase.

Ain't the system great?

Everyone has a throw away.

Absolutely. Why would you posses a firearm with an uncertain past? That's pretty risky and irresponsible but to each his own I guess.

So every firearm you've ever purchased is brand new?

Do you know for certain that every single gun you own is "clean"?

You've never bought / sold a gun face to face?

I know where every single gun I own came from and it's history from birth to me. Seems like that would be pertinent info to have.

If I did own a throw away it would be buried in the neighbor's garden, not in my safe with my legit firearms, and only dug up when I needed a "stinger". You know, and some crack to sprinkle on the poor bastard.

I've bought and sold several guns through this site, but I did not personally know the members. They all seemed legit, and I believed them, but how can I really know they didn't steal them and bull shit me when I bought it from them?

Can I call my friendly local ATF office with my gun serials to check mine???

Nope, Ain't the system great?

Don't forget, he was in possession of a stolen firearm. That alone should cost him his freedom.

I doubt that it was really stolen. It is much more likely that he had someone buy it for him because it is illegal in his state and they reported it stolen to cover their ass. Also considering how many guns I have bought used over the years there is a pretty good chance that I own one that is stolen and I would have no way to know until the police run the serial numbers.
