Around here it is common to meet a guy in a parking lot, buy or sell a gun without asking a damn thing, and leave.
What is common and what is prudent are two different things.
I've transferred ownership of guns I've owned to 4 other people, my best friend, a co-worker I've known for years, my son, and my daughter-in-law. I would NEVER meet a complete stranger in a parking lot and sell him a gun no questions asked.
I've received guns from 3 non-licensed persons, my father, a co-worker I've known for years, and a complete stranger. The stranger asked to see a VA ID and I gladly showed it to him.
The transaction you described was probably 100% legal, but I wouldn't do it.
