If you are referring to the United States of America, You are very wrong. In most states you do not need a license or permit to buy a firearm from a friend or stranger. The only time you must complete any paper work is when you purchase a firearm from a Licensed Dealer. You can still purchase firearms from private citizens (non-dealers) at gun showes. All you need is the looks or ID that says you are at least 21 years of age.

In most U.S. the is “YES.” All gun transfers must go through an authorized agent. Check with any sporting goods store that sells guns and riflesto get a more accurate answer.
