Best place to meet for FTF transfers?

[MCgrease08]

I've done deals outside of: gas stations, fast food joints, grocery stores, big box stores, Gander Mtn., CVS, a park, my LGS, etc.

You do a lot of deals.

There have been more guns sold in Gander Mtn's parking lot than in their store.

There are better deals in their parking lots, and more knowledgeable people.

Everywhere I've used has been a busy public place. Wal-Mart, lowes, etc...

Never had any trouble and have met some great people.

Meh, when you are new to INGO, with few posts, deal with a seasoned member with plenty of posts and a good iTrader feedback. They'll lead the way and won't steer you wrong.

I have met a couple of people at the Cumberland PD on the east side, like others mention you can actually use their lobby or parking lot.

Have you ever had/been asked to fill out a pseudo 4473 type document with both buyer and seller info as a receipt?

LOL, that's a new one. I don't like giving people that I don't know, my address after telling them that I have guns in my house.

Myself and another member meant at a diner in Crawfordsville for lunch then traded in the parking lot.
I still PM the guy occasionally to see what's up!

Hey! My invitation must have been lost in the mail!

I once completed a transaction in an alley behind the CVS in downtown Indy. I joked that it was probably the first time a legal purchase of that nature was ever made in that location.

There a quite a few people that want to fill out some sort of bill of sale. I don't and would rather not, though because I have a C&R license, I would need to retain buyer/seller info on eligible firearms. You can always say no if you don't want info given.

Back alley, usually around dusk or after.

Wrong kind of transfer.

That wouldn't necessarily stop me from a buy or a trade, IF I was informed up front. I'd likely opt out of the trade if it was easy to do it otherwise w/o paperwork. I would be unhappy if that was sprung on me out of the blue, standing in a parking lot.

Happy to show LTCH and DL to verify proper person, with no recording of info.

Yeah, but your transaction did not draw the attention of the United States Attorney, unlike my clients in the same location. Lucky.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

However, I wonder if anyone has gone to a police station for a firearm transfer.

No, in buying guns off INGO: my office, Starbucks in Lebanon (twice) and recently a back alley in Griffith (behind Blythe's).

Well, Yes+No...

If the person I'm meeting is buying a firearm from me, and I do NOT know them at all, and ALL that they have is an Indiana Drivers License, I DO provide a Bil of Sale for them and for me..
This Bill of Sale has most of the questions that are on a 4473. They sign it, and I sign it..


You just NEVER know??...Bill.

I like busy convenience stores/gas stations. Lots of traffic and cameras everywhere if something does go down.

If I was worried about something "going down", I wouldn't be doing the deal. That's why I like dealing with INGOers. I get a good idea who they are first.

 

[Dirtebiker]

NOTE: Firearms sales and purchases are prohibited on town property

Time to meet someone on town property. I think I have Guy's number in my phone....

I'm in!

Nothing like a 4473, but a simple bill of sale, yes.

Gas station, Bob Evans, Walmart parking lot, anywhere open enough that Mrs. Miguel can get visual on the guy with her 458...
