    You will need two forms of ID. This is Virginia law.

    Purchasing a Firearm - Non-VA-Residents

    Rifles and shotguns may be purchased from licensed firearms dealers by persons who are residents of other states upon the presentation of one photo-identification form issued by a governmental agency of the purchaser's state of residence and one other form of identification determined to be acceptable by the Department of Criminal Justice Services
    The following secondary forms of ID are acceptable:
    A current lease.
    Evidence of currently paid personal property tax or real estate tax.
    A current utility or telephone bill.
    A current voter registration card.
    A current bank check.
    A current passport (must include an address).
    A current automobile registration.
    A current hunting or fishing license

    Of ID requirement.

    I bought a 10/22 takedown at Green Top. I used my VA Non Res Permit for the second ID.

    All the people behind the counter wanted to see it. They had not even seen one before. It seems that the Res Permit does not have a picture.
