Private Firearm Transfers in Louisiana

In Louisiana, private sales between residents do not require an FFL background check or state registration. However, under federal law (18 U.S.C. Β§ 922(d)), it is a felony to sell or transfer a firearm to any person you know or have reasonable cause to believe is prohibited from possessing firearms.
