I know you have to have a OK issued ID to buy a rifle or pistol but can I sell one.

Not true. You just have to be a resident of OK, and eligible to purchase that firearm. Now if you purchase from a dealer, they will require a valid OK ID, with current street address. Now the individual seller can require whatever they want. And yes, you can sell one, to any eligible OK resident.

Actually, come to think of it, I'm pretty sure you can sell long guns FTF to residents of a couple neighboring states now.

I just moved here and haven't changed over my license yet. Thank you for your replies.

Welcome to OK!

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!

Q: To whom may an unlicensed person transfer firearms under the GCA?
A person may sell a firearm to an unlicensed resident of his State, if he does not know or have reasonable cause to believe the person is prohibited from receiving or possessing firearms under Federal law. A person may loan or rent a firearm to a resident of any State for temporary use for lawful sporting purposes, if he does not know or have reasonable cause to believe the person is prohibited from receiving or possessing firearms under Federal law.

You don't need an ID unless you're buying from a FFL dealer (like a gun shop). You can buy from a non-FFL individual seller without ID or anything... just a cash transaction. Yes, you can sell to other residents of this state without either one of you having an ID. Like I said, just a cash transaction. That's how business goes down every day in the Classifieds section on this forum, and on www.armslist.com.

don't look at his car and notice the out of state license plate. that would probably make him a prohibited person.
