What is the procedure if I.. not an FFL dealer... wants to sell a gun to a private citizen? Does the person need a purchase permit .. or CPL.. what forms would I need and what would I have to do in order to sell a handgun of mine? Is it legal or would I have to go through a FFL?
Thanks!

Does the person need a purchase permit .. or CPL..
Yes...one or the other.
what forms would I need and what would I have to do in order to sell a handgun of mine?
If they have a CPL you/they need an RI-60. If they get a purchase permit...well they need a purchase permit
Is it legal or would I have to go through a FFL?
Yes, it's perfectly legal...no you don't need an FFL involved for most private sales (you do if the purchaser is in another state)
*edited to fix typo of the RI-60 form

It's an RI-60 form, not RI-90 and it can be downloaded from here:

~LOL~ thanks guys.. no need to fight! :)
So I can do the purchase permit or the CPL with the RI-60 then. AS I read it then I have to make sure it is sent in to the Firearms Record Unit. Well that is easy! Thanks again. Oh, and I dont plan to sell out of state so that isnt a problem.

You don't need the RI-60 for a purchase permit transaction. You keep one copy of the purchase permit for your records and the buyer has to take the other copies back to have it registered.
I would get a copy of the driver's license, though.

I believe the RI-60 is only to be used for a sale with a CPL. If the buyer doesn't have a CPL, I thought the purchase permit has space for what is essentially the same information; which is returned with the pistol for inspection.
I need to double check that, but that's my off-the-cuff recollection.

Yes I think that is what others have been saying too. If they have a CPL I could use the RI-60, otherwise they need the green purchase permit which does have roughly the same information except it doesnt ask for the CCW #.
Thanks to all for responding, it is clear now. :)

I'll be bringing an RI-060 to our meeting and I'll walk you through the procedure. It'll go fine.
