Would this be considered a legal transaction?
Bill doesn't have to "sell" the gun to the gun store.

If the FFL is agreeable, the FFL received the gun from Bill for the purposes of transferring the gun to Joe. The FFL does whatever paperwork he needs to and then effects the transfer to Joe, observing all the usual formalities, e. g., having Joe fill out the 4473, doing the NICS check and anything else required. Of course, Bill and Joe have to agree on the price of the rifle, there needs to be an agreement with the FFL about his fee for going through all the rigmarole, and Bill and Joe have to agree which one will pay the FFL's fee.
