And onto a question much more related to the subject...........
is "gifting" over state lines without a FFL involved legal ??
I have a feeling .. by letter of the law... it is not .
but I think the ATF, CBI, any other LE agency, would be hard pressed to get a conviction over it .. hard to get a jury to agree it was done with ill intent ... unless the jury is all from new york or cali. I guess..
You're assuming that the ATF needs proof of anything.
Point taken.Quote:

I highly doubt it's LE trolling for fish. The rules for sting operations are very specific. There has to be a propensity for this type of illegal action before the fishing expedition can occur. This site is far from what I would consider rebellious (we don't have to like them, but I have yet to see someone overtly promote breaking them on the site) towards the current state and federal firearms laws. I would surmise short of a few ATF agents I know, the level of understanding and law abidement on this forum is way above the average level.
Can we still pretend?
Also, how do the LEO's know there isn't that propensity here unless they check?
this is why I said it was a good idea earlier to poit at the law to the seller/trader....Quote:

Well Bobby caught me on a bad day, I have an eyelash caught in my eye and I can't get it out and it is very irritating.. So, thread is locked and Bobby is on a 7 day time out.. You guys seem smart enough to sniff out the trolls and such, so, I have little to worry about..
Just a word of warning, until I get the eyelash out of my eye,,[Muaha]
About the post count thing...another forum I'm on imposed a 5 post minimum to even browse the classifieds. Very reasonable and has worked quite well.
