Private Sale of Firearms Around Sussex County

[19mace92]

I've been trying to trim down my firearm collection to only a few common calibers that I actually shoot. I've been selling some rifles to fund other builds. I'm not particularly interested in cutting through all the red tape on sites like Gun Broker (not to mention the risk of scams). Has anyone had luck on local forums and classifieds? What transfer fees can I expect at shops around the Delaware Beaches?

Can you still private sale long guns in DE? Remember not to sell without a ffl to MD residents also.

Not entirely sure about DE. I've heard it both ways and don't feel like doing the digging.

I intend to use an FFL no matter what.

It has to go thru a ffl unless they buyer has their ccw permit. You have to get a copy/photo of it to keep in your records. Atleast it was last time I sold one

Since you are in Rehoboth use First Responder in West Rehoboth or Hopkins Gun Shop in Lewes. I'm fond of Hopkins, great folks, shop located on a farm.

Nothing in the law that requires this. I wouldn't give anyone a copy of my carry permit.

No longer use that name (was American Responder Services). They are Best Shot. They are opening the range/shop in Lewes. See the other thread I posted on them.

I drive past their new building every day. They still claim to be open this summer but construction seems to have been really slow. I'm anxious about the opening.

As a member of Bridgeville Rifle and Pistol Club and talking with Delaware residents there, my understanding of Delaware law requires FFL involvement with the sale of rifles and pistols, but not shotguns. Please verify this before proceeding with any sales.

Good Luck

In the ever changing and always challenged world of law and lawyers making a buck. It is stressing to keep up with what is legal anymore. Best to check like a ala cart menu b4 ordering and trading to avoid problems.
