Who is / isn't a dealer? a warning to some.

Stu,
I get your point, but there is nothing here to indicate how long it took him to get that many recommendations or how many were sales of guns and not sales of something other than guns. He could have sold 150 magazines, holsters, gun parts or something else. He may have sold a lot of guns though. But the point of the original post of the Don Knox article on this thread was whether or not the sale of two or five guns made someone a dealer. I believe that the sale of 2 or 5 guns is a line drawn in the sand that is too close to the waters edge.

When my time comes and I have to part with my beloved collection of some 40 or so Lugers and my personal hunting guns, I just hope that my final years are not spent in a federal senior citizens jail (as indicated in Tom Knox's article) just because some over zealous BATF official wants to justify his budgitary requirements or his next promotion.
