If it takes an FFL License to recive Guns direct i would like to get one of those. I know a few FFL dealers i can go through. How would i be able to obtain an FFL license so i would not have to do this? My own freedom without dependence  |
Yes, you can get them delivered directly to you.. I tend to buy 2-3 of the guns I want. I keep the best one for my collection and will sell one of the other ones at a later date, sometimes for a profit, to free up funds for another weapon of choice.
I always seem to have a freind that wants one of my "seconds".. I'll pawn it off to them for what I have in it.. They're happy and I've collected the best weapon of the set I purchased.
No, I don't do this all the time, but I was informed by the FFL that selling collected firearms to gather funds to make my collection better is acceptable. I just can't do it as a business. Basically, just don't take advantage of the system, and the system will treat you with some really nice guns, delivered to your door..
You can purchase any gun on the C & R list, and also any gun that you can prove is at least 50 years old.. I love old Mossberg .22's. There's a ton of them that were made until the 50's. Just look at when the guns were manufactured to have proof that the gun's over 50 and you've got a weapon that you can purchase with your C & R!! I've bought a couple Mossberg 151K models this way on GunBroker and Auction Arms..
Just remember, not everyone accepts the 03 license. My local dealer won't take them. Then he has to go through the hassle of showing the FFL why the gun was sold to an 03 holder.. He doesn't want the hassle, so he doesn't do it. His business, and his choice. I just fill out the 4473 and be done with it..
