When I had my PX4 shipped to a Lincoln FFL, he did not give me the option of registering the handgun. If I remember correctly, he said it was mandatory. Though I can't find any legislation other than 9.36.030 Report of Sale of Firearms, but it sounds like this may apply to dealers (i.e., FFLs).

This is frustrating. Here we have a large group of 2A enthusiasts, and no one has a definitive answer about buying/selling a handgun. This is not a comment on the NFOA members, but a reflection of how convoluted our laws are.
I guess I will need to call the State Patrol and see if they can direct me towards the correct law.

I think this is more of a problem with an incomplete scenario. You do not state the location of this transaction. If you are outside the city limits , there is no law that can force you to register the transaction if it did not occur inside the Lincoln city limits. I traded for a CD 1911 at the fairgrounds ...note that is state property... no registration was ever done, nor in my opinon required
9.36.030
Report of Sale of Firearms.
Any person, firm, association, or corporation dealing in firearms of any type shall, on the
same day of the sale of any firearm, except a shotgun or a rifle of a type commonly used for hunting,
report the sale to the Police Department on forms as prescribed and furnished by the Police
Department. The report shall contain all the information requested thereon. (Ord. 15625 ?3; July
9, 1990: P.C. ?9.28.025: Ord. 15443 ?1; February 20, 1990: prior Ord. 7936 ?1; December 26,
1962).

Sorry...thought that was understood when I said I am from Lincoln. Yes, it was in Lincoln that I took delivery of my PX4.
So are you saying the Lincoln ordinance 9.36.030 specifies "Any person" (as highlighted by you) "shall...", but yet you are not required to register it? Is "shall" synonymous with "should", so it is not "required" as in "must"?

I would hope to shout that "Shall" means "must" and not "Should"...... we are in a "Shall Issue" state.
