In MO, the Federal background check is only required for long gun purhcases when you buy from an FFL (gun store, etc). Private sales are no different than buying a cord of wood. Buying a car from your buddy is far more complicated than buying a rifle from your buddy...fitting as cars are FAR more dangerous than guns :-) In MO, however, you do need a PTA (permit to acquire) a handgun. I really HATE this law. Technically, I cannot lend my pistol to my wife without violating this law...loaning, even to your wife is an illegal transfer without having this $10 form...and I would need another $10 form for her to lend it to me. Actually only two people have ever been convicted under it - one for falsifying the document and the other was a coke dealer. Which means it is universally ignored, even by the police. It's THAT stupid. Chris

Around here, if you buy a gun at a gun store or whatever, you have to fill out this deal and answer some questions, they call a phone number and find out if you are approved or not. The gun is then tranferred to you. If you buy from an individual, most of the time its just a cash deal and thats it. Its possible the seller will want to go to a gun dealer and have the paperwork filled out to transfer the gun to you.
