Trying to sell a pistol for the first time...WA state...have a prospective buyer in the Midwest...do I just have my FFL transfer the pistol to the buyer's FFL, and I then don't have to worry about my liability regarding who that buyer is/is not?
Also, I can't see sending the pistol until I get payment - but do buyer's generally trust sellers with actually sending the pistol after they've received the $? I can't say I'd be that trusting...
Is it customary for the buyer to pay all costs (transfer fee, shipping, and their background check)?
Just want it to go smoothly and not get burned...
Thoughts?
