Questions on selling a gun

Why in the HELL would you want to do THAT?

I have no idea. I got in a debate with a guy that said his guns were registered. I told him there was no registry in Indiana. After a hour of back and forth he sent me the link and sure as hell, you can voluntarily register your guns.

Further proof that when you create a .gov thing, it never really goes away. We USED to have a mandatory registry. That went away and I guess they never tore down the database. They just made it optional.

What is the proper way to sell a gun to an individual in Indiana?
Is there paperwork that needs to be filled out ?
The guns are registered to me.

I've found it helpful to verify they live in state, ask them if they are legally qualified to own firearms, and have them sign a bill of sale with the date, firearm info, etc. That way you have a record it was sold should that weapon be found at a crime scene and "they" follow the paper trail back to you.

If you're really concerned and dont mind the hassle/fee then consider having an FFL do an official transfer.
