Would you refuse to sell a gun to someone you think is shady?

I am well aware of the difference between one percent clubs and 99 percent clubs. Like I said I know many people that are in one percent clubs. Most of them are in the outlaws. Not all the chapters of the outlaws or hells angels are like they are portrayed in the news and various tv shows. Just because they are labeled a one percent club does not mean they are out killing people!

Some of the nicest guys I've ever met were 1% or rode in support clubs. When my dad was kidnapped and robbed it was his old MC buddies that found the guy and turned him over to the cops. I still wouldn't sell to them. It goes back to the old saying, play stupid games and you win stupid prizes. I'm not facilitating the lifestyle or supporting it.

Like Jimmy Smitts said on SOA, "You can't keep the uniform on and expect to never get in the game."
 
Ive never sold any firearms outside of ffl dealers and coworkers whom I had known for ten years. On the other side of that unless I have reason to believe someone may be a violent felon, or I find their behavior suspicious, I reserve the right to sell, or refuse to sell to anybody and aside from that I would sell to biker before I sell to a blood or a crip.
 
Would I listen to my "gut instinct". Dang right I would. I don't care about the dress or smell etc., but when someone starts giving off body language or clues that makes you get that hair on the back of your neck standing up feeling, listen to it. At the absolute worst you have denied a sale to a great person who was simply dirty and poorly dressed, I can live with that on my conscience. I have also refused to buy guns from dealers at shows simply based on their actions, there are plenty of firearms to buy I don't need to buy (or sell) one to a dealer who is an jerk.

Now lets add a twist, suppose you had a firearm on consignment at a LGS and that same person who tried to buy it from you (and you turned him down) came into the store while you were looking around, passed every background check etc. and the LGS dealer was preparing to sell it to him, would you say anything then.?
 
IMHO- if you believe in less government regulation then it's up to you as an individual to make good choices.
