Buyer: "What is it and How much?"
That was 30 years ago and I still have misgivings about selling that gun. It was my "Service Revolver" I carried when I was a Deputy Constable. i REGRET THAT i DID IT.
But that's just me.

I just cant imagine selling any of my Firearms, ever.
Even my terrible P22 that I hate, I just cant part with it.

Nothing, Really.

You and Me at most Gun Shows in Texas
Me: wanna buy my gun?
You: Yeah
Me: 500 Bucks
You: Ok
Me: You arent prohibited from own a gun are you?
You: Nope
You give me money I give you gun transaction over.

You and me at the Wal Mart parking lot
Me: wanna buy my gun?
You: Yeah
Me: 500 Bucks
You: Ok
Me: You arent prohibited from own a gun are you?
You: Nope
You give me money I give you gun transaction over.

Do you need a permit from the City to run a gun show?
If not, the guy should have just done it and told the Feds and the Police to go take a flying leap.

Lets start a letter writing campaign to the Austin PD, and out state Reps, Gov Perry ect

Maybe it was the only way they could get the permit to hold the show.

Is there anything stopping you from standing in the parking lot or passing out business cards at the show for private sales?
