My friend's dad has a handgun that was used in a crime (robbery) 10 years ago that he is willing to sell to me for $200 less than market value. It's got its numbers filed off so I think it's ok. Should I?
I'm tired of being noguns.

go for it. in fact, you should post pics on Facebook after friending your local police department and the BATFE. they will congratulate you on your wise purchase.
you are doing the right thing, anon. this is how you succeed.

i can tell you are trying to ruse me, sir

im sure nothing could go wrong
then when you get caught with it and drilled by detectives as to who you got it from, you'll post here asking for legal advice. At the very least you could be charged with possession of stolen property, and with it being a firearm that's automatically upgraded to a felony.

I can just say I didn't know it was used in a crime though.

Except the fact that, because you posted about it, and that shit can traced by the way, they'll figure out you're lying REAL fast. Plus how the hell do you know it was used in a crime anyway? Chances are, the friend's dad or friend told you. The police are gonna question them, they'll say they told you. Bam, tack on a charge of lying to the police or obstruction of justice.

possession of a firearm with the serial numbers removed is by definition a felony violation of federal law, which is also mirrored in most states.
enjoy sucking jamal's dick for a decade just to survive prison.
this is literally the only situation conceivable where you'd be better off not buying a gun at all.

you can spot a troll post but cannot derive any useable info from that post? God damn your autism must be crippling.
