Sky, you are correct. I talked to mu buddy today. When a sale like that happens the seller will write a reciept saying that SN xyz on this gun (description) is being sold to mr so and so , by me mr john doe. I THINK it is on a specific form...and that is what is used to go and re register the gun under the new owners name.
which leads to the other answers he seeks...if you have ANY gun on your person or in your possession that is NOT LISTED on your permit...you are going to jail. Because of the corrupt system...you might be able to buy your way out before you go very far...maybe not..
The law says you cannot carry someone elses gun...the well connected get to do almost anything though!
secondly....if you have your licensed gun with you, but dont have your permit..you will go to the police station, and they will make you have someone bring the permit to the station...if it matches the gun , you go free....no problems.
if you got stopped by the police with your buddies gun and you are licensed to carry...you go to the police station, if you can explain your self. and are lucky enough you can have your buddy come down and verify the gun is his.. they will match up the serial number with his permit....then they know the gun is legit....at that point my buddy says bribes will be neded from you both ...because they know no illegal activity is going down, but a law was broken. and cash will exchange hands.....thats the word i got.
no permit and a gun is an automatic jail......I hear there is no getting out of it....of course...we all know those situation are very dyanmic
I know id have no problem parting with 50,000 pesos to avoid a few weeks in jail waiting for a tril with a hired lawyer, and unknown possiblities.....
