FFL greed

edited June 2008 in Gun Rights and Constitutional Law
I have a gun store in Utah and have sold guns to Californian's for years. A couple of years ago they decided to not do any Brady checks except for in state ffl'S. That essentially stopped sells to any Californian. Now the only way is to send the gun to a Calif--FFL.The problem now is FFl dealers are charging as much as 200.00 to do the transfer. With this new law we have to get permission from the Department of Justice before we can ship. I feel real sorry for the good folks in Calif that are left there. Thanks

    That's just free market capitalism. What do you want, government control over what a businessman, FFL can charge? That's called socialism.

    You're totally free to move to CA and charge $10 for a transfer.

    Capitalism ? Yeppers, Tap...you got it right.

    A rotten, corrupt system...it will prove to be FAR more destructive to the human spirit then ALL the other 'isms' out there.

    "Capitalism" = An unholy allegiance between big business and big government.designed to destroy the individual freedoms of Sovereign Citizens.

    Naturally.you would be all for it.

    Triple,

    "free market capitalism" is an oxymoron.

    Except for part of that cost is really high state imposed fees for the paperwork/background check...

    I don't feel sorry for those Kalis cause they continue to live there. They can either promote legislative change or ... simply move to a pro-gun state like ... TEXAS!![:D][:D][:D][:D]
