Can anyone tell me how a gun show works? I have googled it many times. According to what I have read it seems that dealers and private sellers will be at a gun show. Now....I live in Rockland County....this gun show is in Orange County....how do I make a purchase and transport this gun legally? Besides a bill of sale do I need anything else to register this gun with Rockland County? FYI I have recently received my permit so I still have that green purchase coupon. I appreciate your help in advance.
Depends on what your buying~ Many vendors there have local shops and many dont. Rifle and shotgun you can walk out with. Pistols you need to go to your local permit department and register it(and wait if they call for it in your county) bringing back your authorization card. in other-words unless your an LEO you most likely wont be getting a hand gun at the show. (minding your county regs on registering rifle or shotguns).

at least that's the way i understand it. They do have FFL's willing to do transfers if you have a FFL willing to receive it.

Thanks for the help everyone. Sounds like going to a gun show will only allow you to leave with ammo and accessories. I guess the purpose of a gun show maybe to physically see the guns firsthand. If anyone else has anything to add please do. I would like to know how one would make a firearm purchase.
You can purchase rifle's and shotguns also. Private sales can be made to LEO with proper ID with no wait (maybe a friend in LEO friend can buy it on your behalf and transfer it to you after they have gotten some trigger time on first and decide they dont want to keep it ,of course ;))

Last show i was told they will have many cases of the brass cased 7.62X39 surplus ammo(mildly corrosive) last time i think it was going for $250 for 1120rds. pretty good buy if they didn't bump up the prices.
