Holding a firearm during BG Check.

[10mm-man]

That's illegal. Had they been audited by the BATF and been found to be running background checks without having the guns in their possession, their FFL could have been revoked.

Not entirely true- you don't need the gun in hand. illegal if you run the BGC without the make, model, Sn. (I was told by the CBI if you have those things while waiting for a gun in transit from another FFL, it was ok) And you can't do the transfer without it in hand, logged R&D.


(I'm not a lawyer or member of ATF, CBI, so take it what it's worth)
