I would really appreciate any advice in regards to private sales in AZ, Texas and other states where face-to-face private sales are legal without transferring through an FFL. As long as I do my due diligence, check ID and make sure the person I'm selling to is of age and a resident of my state and have no reason to believe they are a criminal, is it perfectly legal to sell a firearm for cash? That's what I understand and what I've been taught. Recently through I've been told by someone that private sale of a firearm can open you up to legal issues in the case that gun is later used in a crime by some unsavory criminal scumbag. Is that true? Let's say I sell a gun I bought from an FFL to some upstanding guy with a CCW, months later they sell it to someone who in turn sells it to someone else and it ends up in the hands of some degenerate and they commit a crime with it, the cops recover the gun and trace it to me. Would there be a possibility of me being in some kind of trouble? How does that usually go? I haven't given this much thought before. I know most states do not require a bill of sale or anything for private sales. If anyone has any advice or experience with private, FTF sales I'd be thankful for any input/advice etc.
