Well tonight is my final time listing anything on Armslist. I had a young kid (20 yo) call me saying he wanted to meet for my LCP. Said he was willing to drive to me and we worked out a time to meet this evening.
Shortly after we spoke he texts me a picture of his drivers license and his “permit”. He wanted to make sure was “good” before he drives an hour a half one day to meet me. Permit looked legit and his DL was valid. I explained that he would have to give that permit to me. He was cool with that.
First red flag was that he was sending this info to me. That said, hey maybe he’s a first time gun buyer and doesn’t know how this works. Who knows? That said I know it doesn’t say anywhere in any statues that I need to take that permit. It’s what I do and end of story.
He arrived, looks at the gun and all is well. Then he hands me a blue piece of paper that looks like something he ran through a copier. The permit info looked accurate but it was 100% obvious he had made copies of the original. Normally it has a seal from the office lady. That was showing up in ink but not pressed in like they normally are. You can clearly see in the picture he sent me it was pressed in. Hell that document was white and this one was blue.
Anyways, I told him I couldn’t sell him the gun because of XY and Z. He then tried to say well the picture he originally sent me was blue as well. I wasn’t born yesterday and I’m not colorblind. Told him to have a safe drive back home.
It gets better though. He then calls me 20 minutes ago and I hit ignore because it’s 11:30PM. Texted him and told him to not call me this late. He said I’ve got someone with a valid permit. Told him I wasn’t dealing with someone that’s being sketchy. Wrote back and called me a “little bitch”.... I guess that’s supposed to change my mind on selling him a gun?
Worth my time to call the Martin County Sheriffs office tomorrow and let them know this guy is being shady with the permits they issued?
