A friend just bought a rifle from a private individual and arranged shipping to a local FFL. The FFL told him federal law would make him hold the rifle for 15 days before he could pick it up since it wasn’t shipped from an FFL.I can’t find it in any regulations. This particular FFL has always been a pain to do transfers with. I say this is BS. Opinions?

You are correct, and the FFL is wrong.
Why doesn't said friend ask for the regulatory quote?
The only hold is either from a state POC or a DELAY as result of a NICS check.
The Brady Law demands a 3 day hold after a DELAYED result from NICS.
If the state POC is in play, and they have state regulations that place a hold, then that is unique to that state.
Lots of FFL's confuse company policy with federal law.

My FFL calls me the day he gets it, I pick it up that day, after the proper paper work and NICS.

My question is if you knew the guy is a PITA, why did you use him? Fact is he has the gun and unless you are willing to pay to ship it back and then to some other FFL, you’re stuck with him and his arbitrary bs at this point. You’ll get the gun in 15 days.

Nonsense by federal regulations. FFL holders are often weird and like to make themselves more important in my experience. Probably 80% have had some hang up that isn't in the reg.s. And they really hate it when you appear to know as much as they do. Best roll with it and find a different FFL next time.
Or call the ATF and sheriff. Report back please.

My FFL calls me the day he gets it, I pick it up that day, after the proper paper work and NICS. Same,same. My guy wants me there ASAP. He has limited safe/vault space, and prefers not to be responsible for the security of other peoples' merchandise.

It's BS.. I've done many transfers from private individuals to another person via 4473.. When the box arrives, I call the customer.. He/she (or "IT" - gotta be PC doncha know) comes in - many times that same day - fills out the form, I get the Okie-dokie from ATF or WI-DOJ and 'it' walks out with the firearm.. Find another FFL for your next transfer. Hasbeen ^^^^^^+ Yep. This one is punishing you for not buying a gun from HIM. DING!!!

I would be tempted to tell him I was going to report the gun stolen and give them his address, see how far he's willing to run with that story (lie).
