I wish I had thought of this. I had the cash in my pocket, and wanted to buy the pistol (a bolo), but I didn't want another "project." I already own a few of those. I am capable of breaking it down and putting it back together, but obviously the seller doesn't know me from Adam. This was the first time I've asked anyone at a gun show if I could, and since I seemed to have suprised him so, I wondered if that's not something you ask.
BTW, here in CA the FFL's are required to collect the sales tax from private sales.
