    gun show transactions from yesteryear

    Back in '85 we could go up to a table for instance, find a Smith 586 for sale, hand over the cash and be on our merry way. Can someone tell me approximately what year did the mandatory filling-out-of-reams-of-paperwork become part of the process? Just wondering. geo

      Believe it was the beginning of 1992 when this all ended in CA for PPT sales. It has been ages ago in CA when a FFL could just hand you over a handgun.
