Can i sell a gun in oklahoma

There are no specific state laws addressing private sales of a firearm between private parties. However, there are penalties for buyers and sellers if the firearm was sold to an ineligible person, selling a defaced firearm or selling a restricted firearm explosive weapon, machine gun which can result in different criminal charges including and up to a felony criminal charge.

Here is the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives guidance on the transfer of a firearm by private sellers. In order to purchase a long gun or shotgun, a buyer must be 18 years old or older to legally purchase them and pass the background check. For shoppers looking to purchase a handgun, buyers must be at least 21 years old or older and pass the background check to legally buy the gun. Additionally, no city governments of municipalities can enact public policies that are more restrictive than state law when it comes to firearms sales.

Thanks Jason. Just like Joker said. It gets more difficult when you start shipping out of state though. What happened to Joker's post?

Honeybee Sharpshooter. For a face to face transaction FTF Joker has it right, don't be afraid to give them a recept if they want one, that can be as easy as a hand written note with date, serial number and your contact info. If the gun is registered to you then don't be afraid to ask for a recept with their personal contact info. If you want to sell to someone in another city it is not difficult either, you can ship a shotgun or rifle to anyone in Oklahoma through UPS or Fed-ex without paperwork The exception is a pistol and you need to ship that to an FFL holder.

Outside of Oklahoma you need to have an FFL holder ship to another FFL holder and have your buyer pick it up from them, Any gun shop has an FFL license and most will ship, most on this form ship cheap. Give me a PM with what you want and what you have and I may be able to take your guns in on trade for the one you want.

Nothing illegal. He just said do a cash sale, shake hands, and call it a deal. I don't know why it's no longer showing. Click to expand Joined Nov 29, Messages 2, Reaction score 4 Location broken arrow.

Ya what joker said looked good to me so i went on. But it vanished, i wonder why?? The only exception is that you can not ship hand guns through the Post Office, they must go through UPS or fed-ex and then they will charge you to ship them Next day Air, which may then be cheaper to have a FFL ship it since they can use the Post Office to ship handguns.

Anything that goes out of state must go through a FFL. Finally, anyone who has a conviction for a crime involving domestic violence , including a misdemeanor conviction , is unable to own a gun. Prior to November 1, , Oklahoma state law makes the state a Shall Issue state, meaning that gun owners need to receive a permit from the state as well as take part in a gun training course in order to carry most types of guns. This type of weapons permit is only necessary for handguns.

Residents are allowed to own long guns—rifles and shotguns—without a permit. On November 1, , Oklahoma becomes a Constitutional Carry state. This type of carry law means that no specific training or permit will be required to carry a handgun within Oklahoma as long as you are not prohibited from owning a gun by any other state or federal laws. Still, even under this new law, you will need to obtain a permit in most cases if you wish to carry a gun with you during any type of interstate travel.

It is also worth noting that in Oklahoma there is what is known as state preemption of local laws. This basically means that counties, towns, and other municipalities within the state cannot enforce laws that contradict state laws.

A concealed carry is when you carry a gun on your person or in your vehicle, in a manner that is not visible to any passerby. Open carry is carrying a weapon in a place that is apparent to anyone. Typically, you see this with people openly carrying their weapon in a holster on their belt. There are certain events in which you are legally allowed to carry a firearm without a license.
