I fear that someday the FTF transactions will be a thing of the past. Sad.
I was too young but recall drooling over the guns at the local hardware store as a youth.
As an adult, I've bought guns FTF at garage sales and gun shows and met folks in their living rooms and parking lots after seeing sales ads.
The coolest place was in a corner convenience store/restaurant. I wandered in and they had an FFL with guns for sale. I seized the unique opportunity. I bought a 20 gauge Mossberg, and for laughs for the receipt souvenir I also bought a catfish plate, a 6 pack of beer, and a dozen eggs.
Total, $217. Still have the receipt.
A great memory.
