VooDoo69:
What is all required for private handgun sale ? thanks for the help guys

Jay:
Basically, the condensed version for the sale of a handgun between two private parties in Nebraska, you both must be Nebraska residents, and the buyer must have a valid Nebraska Firearm Purchase Certificate.

It would be good practice for both parties to sign a bill of sale indicating both parties personal information, a description of the firearm, and the gun's serial #.

I will try to find a copy of the exact regulations to post, but that pretty much covers it.

Jay:
Also, just an FYI, we have a brief simplified summary of various firearms regulations on our main web page. Look in the menu on the upper left hand side for a summary of firearms regulations.

Thanks for the info Jay

Dan W:
Some cities may have a requirement for reporting the sale of a handgun to the local gendarmes

I think this is true for Lincoln, but I have never sold a handgun here, so I don't know the drill


Edit;

here is the ordinance

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).
