I Was Trying To Buy A Rifle From This One Yahoo

On Gunbroker, of course.

Seller was another FFL, and he asked whether I would send him a FFL copy SIGNED IN BLUE INK. Had to be blue ink.

I told him I would have to hunt up a blue pen, since I use black ink, and that a FFL copy signed in black in is perfectly acceptable.

He threw a FIT. Said it was "the law," an ATF regulation that the FFL copy must be signed with BLUE ink. So he asked me again whether I would send my FFL copy signed in blue ink. I said I would, and I did.

I borrowed colored pens from my children and signed that FFL copy on the signature line in blue ink, and in all the margins, with every color i could find. Red, black, green, purple, pink, orange, yellow, and so on. You get the idea.

When that dealer got the FFL copy, he absolutely GEEKED out! He threw a stomping, screaming, wall-eyed fit. Threatened to call the BATF on me for sending him an "illegal" document.

I don't recall whether we ever completed the deal. That was a long time ago.
