"Current" rules on private party sales?
« on: March 22, 2017, 06:55:17 PM »
I know there are older posts dealing with private party sales, but I'd like some clarification if any one can.

I'm buying a rifle from another private party in Nebraska in a few weeks.  Do we need to do an ffl transfer for this?  My previous understanding was no, but then I read about some executive orders that Barry did before he left office. Those appear to muddy the water a bit.  So do we need to do a transfer, is it a good CYA move to do the transfer, or can we just do it with a basic bill of sale?  Thanks in advance

Exchange funds for long gun. No ffl needed. Ask for purchase permit if you'd like, but it's not required.

Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

FarmerRick is right: no FFL needed on long guns in NE.  I think I know the executive order you're talking about, and it affected people who were in the business of selling firearms, not casual sales.
