A guy wants to buy a handgun from me that now lives in N.C. , he has a Florida DL and a Florida concealed carry permit and bills to show he is a resident of N.C., is it legal to sell him a handgun?

On top of that he wanted the serial number over the phone to check if it is stolen, I bought it new and have nothing to hide. But unless he's in law enforcement how could he run the serial number? I am not willing to deviate at all from the law regarding firearms.

Oh and as far as his residency, he is just going to have to wait until he has lived in NC for the prescribed time (6 months I believe). That is when the sheriff would issue a purchase permit, and not before. I would want to see a NCDL and a NC CCW permit for the private sale, or else I would expect it to be treated as an interstate transfer of a weapon.
