It a sw comp carry 19 on armslist.
I have always do face to face.
Should I move on?
You'd pay the seller or an escrow service. The firearm would need to be shipped to a FFL in Minnesota and then you would transfer it to yourself at that FFL. You cannot purchase a firearm from a private individual in another state and obtain directly - it will have to go through the FFL.
I can't speak in terms of escrow/insurance as I don't have any experience with that - but the above is the legally required process under federal law.
Thanks,
