No there isn't. You just need to know that the purchaser isn't a felon or restricted from firearms. You're not required by law to do anything.

Having said that, this is suspicious as hell that you are restricted with ammo. Everything else just makes it sound like you're 18 and looking for a handgun. Before AJ puts his nose into other people's business again - Yes, 18 year olds can legally own handguns through private transfers. They can also own what MN has classified "assault" type weapons, even through FFLs.

I am turning 20 in a month and yes the ammunition laws apply because of the federal laws as well. Yes, gifts, and legal private sales are what allow anybody under the age of 21 and above 18 to legally own and shoot "assault style" weapons and handguns.

I am also asking here not because I can't have a family member go file their paperwork etc, I realize some people might have one at a good price due to the fact that they don't want or need one or know somebody who is in the same boat. This isn't a desperate measure, and there is a gun show in Stillwater I'll check out tomorrow as well.

Before I stick my nose is some else's business? Get bent. I asked a question and stated where was general liability, and oh wait:

Minn. Stat. 609.66 Subd. 1f.

Gross misdemeanor; transferring firearm without background check. A person, other than a federally licensed firearms dealer, who transfers a pistol or semiautomatic military-style assault weapon to another without complying with the transfer requirements of section 624.7132, is guilty of a gross misdemeanor if the transferee possesses or uses the weapon within one year after the transfer in furtherance of a felony crime of violence, and if:
(1) the transferee was prohibited from possessing the weapon under section 624.713 at the time of the transfer; or
(2) it was reasonably foreseeable at the time of the transfer that the transferee was likely to use or possess the weapon in furtherance of a felony crime of violence.


So can he, sure, I never said he couldn't. I said I wouldn't sell and likely others probably wouldn't either.

You do know what this law means, right? Someone has to commit a felony AND either was prohibited from owning firearms or you knew he was going to use it in a felony crime prior to the sale. Furthermore, you can only be charged IF you didn't comply with 624.7132.

If you're not in business with dogwhistle, this is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. It's whoever's doing the transfer and his business. I know what you're doing. Trying to scare people away from doing business because you can't comprehend what the law is saying.

Dogwhistle, an acquaintance of mine went through buying an AR15 when he was 18 through an FFL. If you need help with purchasing an "assault" long gun through an FFL - go to Gunstop in Minnetonka.
