Selling personal firearms

Hello,
Does anyone know if there is a limit on the amount of firearms you can sell or trade as a private sale? I have a large collection I will be thinning out, and I dont want to violate the law. Most of the stuff will end up on gunbroker, so it ends up going through a dealer anyway. Does that make any difference?
Thanks,
Devin

if you are talking about federal law...is it your business...no? then don't worry about it. If you want to make it a business...get the license.
