So I placed a rifle on armslist and INGO and the first response I had gotten was from a gentlemen that seemed a little too anxious for me.... My corresponding with him went as follows after he sent me his phone number:
Me: I have the FN Scar clone, were you wanting to just pay cash outright or trade plus cash?? What side of town are you located??
Him: Hello... Pay cash... I just moved here about a month ago... I'm near 56th & Lafayette.. Are you familiar with that?
Me: Yes I am
Him: Can I pick it up now? We can meet somewhere?
Me: Do you know where 56th & Michigan Rd is?
Him: Yes
Me: There is a Shell Gas Station on the corner that I could meet you at... My cash price is $625
Him: Alright I'm leaving now... I'll be in a 2012 Charger
Me: I'll be on my way in about 10 minutes... Do you have a valid Indiana driver's license and an Indiana License to Carry a Handgun??
Him: I don't... But they said when its a private sale I don't need one... That's how I bought my gun this past weekend at the gun expo... I just have my California license... Are we still a go?
Me: Sorry but I have to cover my ass... You need a valid IN drivers license to prove you are an Indiana resident and a License to carry to prove you are not a felon... Sorry bud
Him: No worries, thanks though
Okay INGO.... What are your thoughts on this back and forth between the potential buyer.... What would you have done in this situation??
