I ran into a killer deal on a Ruger Gunsight Scout in 556, something I have really been wanting for a while. I met the seller in the parking lot of my usual transfer FFL, checked out the rifle, and agreed on a price. When I told him to come inside with me to complete the transfer, he refused, saying that it was a bullsh## law and he refused to comply, "as any real American should" he said. He seemed legit, and the gun wasn't stolen, as he showed me the receipt from Cabela's from when he bought it. He then told me that I was not taking any chances because I was the buyer and only the seller is accountable. I walked away from the deal because of this, really bummed out because I have wanted this particular firearm for a LLLOOONNNNGGG time, and the price was incredible. Question is, was he right, and I was a dumba**, or could it have been a sting , and I would indeed be in trouble? He did mention the word sting, which raised a red flag in my head.
