If they're not breaking the law, yes. And you can bet your bottom dollar the BATFE will be there conducting sting operations to try and bust sellers and buyers who are making illegal transfers. Don't do try it! Stick to buying a long gun from an FFL and you'll be OK

Seeing as how I live less than 10 minutes from the Oklahoma border you can only imagine how tempting it is to break the law when I see a deal at a show across the river or an ad in the paper! I've also seen a seller at an across the river show who I KNOW lives in TX and is not an FFL. Some will risk it, but I value my freedom and gun rights to much to risk a felony conviction.

Yup, really! Why not? It's against the law. Any opinions? How about this one:

Unless you live in Oklahoma, DO NOT BUY FROM A PRIVATE SELLER!!!! Legally, you cannot buy a gun from a private seller (someone who is not an FFL-holder) outside the state in which you reside.
