I have bought guns, both long guns and pistols, FTF from others, done FTF trades for others and given a few away to family members. There is only an issue when shipping across state lines, then you must get an FFL involved.

There are many politicians that would like to take away these rights, but for now, in most states, it is still perfectly legal to do for transactions within a state.
