Ugh. So I'm in the process of selling a handgun and this potential buyer mentions to me that he is an Indiana resident, has his IN DL, but is currently living out of state. I kinda stumbled when he mentioned the out of state part and got cold feet. I'm unclear on what the law considers residence. I told him what was going on in my head, but he's convinced everything is above board. I couldn't wrap my head around it though and told him we had to use an FFL or no deal. Of course that incurs extra cost on both ends since I wanted to ship to his out of state FFL. I advised the guy that while my price is righteous, adding FFL and shipping fees on would make my price less attractive...I told him he could likely find a better deal elsewhere and walked away from a sale.
Someone reassure me that I did the right thing here. I hate to pass up a sale. This guy had cash in hand and a seemingly valid IN DL, but the squawk about living out of state gave me cold feet.
