Could be something innocent I suppose.

You can't sell guns on gunbroker, repeatedly for profit and expect people to believe you're not engaged in the sale of guns.

Does it really matter that someone buys old cars, holds them for a few years, cleans them up and sell them for a profit?

Do they need a dealers license to sell cars? No

So the government decided you need an FFL to deal in guns. This is a restrictions that FFLs know what they are doing and will not sell to a criminal. So we are on a slippery slope. I sell a gun, am I a dealer? How about if I sell two? How about if I sell three? Does it make a difference that I lost money on the first two?

I hope to get pics from him. He says they'll often get a scrap van, load the guns into it, crush the van, and then run it through the shredder.

Seems like we should sell them and start paying down the national dept or something.
