"I did rip his C&R up getting thru that dog dam gorilla tape."
Why does he include a copy of his C&R in a modern day gun transaction?
Only as an ID. Many dealers like it better than a photocopy of a drivers license, or at least treat it as an equal to that. It still has to come to a full dealer for transfer to me if a modern gun. Winchesterpoor's rifle (source of the quote) was a 1940's gun so C&R Eligible. Pretty easy question, that one. Surprised you could not figure it out on your own.
And, more to the point, why do you care or consider it your business? That kinda goes for lots of the campfire dog pile pound here, (I did laugh out loud at the term given them "Special Olympics Waterheads, THAT was funny!) who have still failed to intimidate or push me into doing something that I felt was a wrong or maybe better described as a weak response to a simple buyers remorse BS deal from a pushy, threatening type, lying buyer.
I don't have to be popular to be right. And I am not up for any votes here or to win a popularity contest comprised of the kinds of folks who want to keep piling on and twisting or at least questioning every little thing that is said.
I'll tell you what's not a lie... You tried to convince me to send you a modern pistol to your C&R FFL. That's not correct and you know it. Please, quit digging this hole deep than it already is.
For whatever reason, he can't seem to help himself from digging a deeper hole and I expect he'll be along shortly to call you a liar or to say you misunderstood what he was asking you to do.
