“You want to be in possession of a bunch of stolen firearms? After having filed a false police report?
Perhaps you might rethink that plan.”
Better to buy new, or nearly new, variants of all of your guns from friends, and sell your old ones to finance the purchases. In fact, just do an exchange with your friends (and/or trusted family). That way ALL of you then will have unpapered firearms without having knowingly filed a false police report. The latter will not only get you a record, a big legal bill and possible jail time, it will earn you a revocation of your right to vote and your RKBA. Not exactly the wisest move you could make.
Hi,
When doing a private purchase, how does one confirm that the firearm one is purchasing is not stolen? (Legit question - I don’t know an answer.)
You can still built an AR from a “kit”.
It is still being done. I don’t care much for .223 rifles. Shoot and reload a little heavier stuff.
I have not bought a new rifle or pistol through this, but I doubled down on my reloading equipment and components about 3 years ago.
