I had an inquiry today about a pistol I have for sale here on BS. The person wants to buy the pistol from me but is overseas working at the moment and ask me if I would sell the pistol to his son for him. I replied back to him and said NO because I was only going to sell to the actual buyer of the pistol and that the "actual" buyer was going to have to be a Louisiana resident, show me his drivers license and sign a bill of sale. He insists its ok to sell to his son and that his son will sign a bill of sale and lives at the same address.
Now as far as I'm conserned this is against the law because I have first hand knowledge that his son is not going to be the "actual intended owner" of the pistol "straw purchase?". So my question is am I right to refuse the sale of the pistol in this case? What are your thoughts on this situation?
