I have been scratchin' my head on the legal ramifications for collectors that hold a valid 03 C&R FFL.

I-594 does not include a provision for collectors or CPL holders.
AS per 18USC collectors are distinctly differnent than dealers, and as such under 594 would be required to get a background check.

If I wanted to buy this C&R firearm today I would not need said check, as long as I have a valid 03 C&R FFL.
If 594 comes to fruition would I be in violation with this same transaction? I have not been able to find a way to complete this transaction in keeping with the letter of the proposed law.


How could a C&R holder comply with 594 if it comes to fruition?
Would this be a good enough test case to repeal the proposed law?

A better explaination is likely needed .. just citing the law w/o explanation where the law offends you is not help folks to respond

^^^Link to proposed law ^^^

In a nutshell this initiative proposes a new law that requires background checks for all private sales and transferrs. There is no exception for anyone who hold a C&R license or state issued CPL.

My focus is on the Federaly licensed private internet sale of a firearm that meets the 03 criteria.

There is a lot more to it but I am trying to keep my response unbiased.

You can try that 594 is unconstitutional as applied to people in you circumstance as it only frustrates with no public benefit......
