(8,142 posts)I have a C&R license which allows me to buy curio and relic weapons, weapons older thann50yo that are no longer produced. In order to get this lic I had to go thru the ATF which meant a thorough background check and a sign off by the head local law enforcement official. In my case the sheriff.
I can have these weapons shipped directly to my home since I have already been fully vetted and this lic must be renewed every five years, so I am checked again every five years. If I buy any newer guns I must ave them shipped to a local FFL to be vetted AGAIN. Even if I do a deal thru Gunbroker, which is like an online EBay, I still have to follow these same rules.
So online deals are pretty well covered unless you find another way to ake private contact and make a deal, which is already illegal.
