Question: Is your FFL willing to risk conspiracy charges in order to assist you in avoiding doing the required federal paperwork for multiple firearm transfers?
|
Since doing what he is wanting to be doing is not illegal, the dealer cannot be conspiring to not break the law.
The law says that the form must be filled out if multiple handguns are transferred from the dealer to the same person within 5 days. If the transfers were more than 5 days apart, then the law is not being violated.
From the BATFE
Example 3. A licensee maintaining business
hours on Monday through Saturday
sells a revolver to an unlicensed person
on Monday and sells another revolver to
the same person on the following Saturday.
This does not constitute a multiple
sale and need not be reported since the
sales did not occur during five consecutive
business days.
Since the sale is not complete until the firearms is delivered, then as long as the guns are transferred more than 5 business days apart, you are legal.
