Apparently my C&R isn't good enough...

I'm with Ed and Alvin. Sometimes you just have to hold your nose and do the deal. Remember, it's not personal, it's business. Regards, Norm

I'm thinking you guys hit it on the head by guessing they don't take C&R's just to make it difficult on those that they think are costing "real" FFL's business.

Called them up and they said there was "a lot of checks and extra paperwork" they had to go through for a C&R. I tried telling him otherwise until I was blue in the face. I asked him why they didn't state "No C&R's" on the auction and he claimed they had "never seen one before". I ended the conversation being that I couldn't "hold my watch up" any higher. Like I said before, it looks like a good deal so I held my nose, forced the bile back down, and told them to ship it. The FFL I use in town couldn't believe their "stuff" either and used a few of the same adjectives I did in referring to the seller.

Yet ..........they shipped the gun U.S. Mail "Priority"........doesn't sound like they know much at all about the law when it comes to C&R's does it (that was sarcasm BTW)?

They go by "unitedpawn" on GunBroker and they're out of Jonesboro, Arkansas for future reference.

...okay, I'm done...just had to get that off my chest. I'll post pics in the "Military" forum when I get it for opinions on "how I did".
