Re: Too many dealers
dl,
I had a similar experience with a local gun shop in my city in South Carolina. The idiot said that the State of SC did not recognize the C&R ;icense and he could not sell me a pistol I wanted. I tried to be nice and explain the law and he was determined that I was wrong. I knew I was right, but I called the ATF and they put me in touch with the proper person at the SCLED in Columbia. They said the guy was wrong also. I did go back to the same gun shop to get a "C" (part courtesy of Tom Heller) spring installed in a fairly rare, early, Walther PP and the the guy said, "yea, I can install this spring. I can repair any Walther PP". After 2 weeks I went back to pick up the pistol and the guy said I had the wrong spring, it should be a coil spring. I had also taken my book and left it with him so he could see where it went, but he again had determined I was wrong and he was right. Anyway, I brought the pistol home and installed it myself in a few minutes. This goes to show how much of an idiot some dealers are. I have never and will never set foot in his store again and he knows it now!
