Out of State won't sell C&R pistol. HELP!
Guys, I won an auction online for a pistol that is C&R eligible.
The guy refuses to move forward with the sale citing that it is not on the roster and that the roster supercedes C&R eligibility.
He's asking me to cite laws.
Is there anything that says specifically that C&R pistols can be shipped directly to a C&R FFL in Mass?
I only find that Mass law does not expressly prohibit C&R sales across state lines.
Help!
Thanks.

HE cleary doesnt know what he is talking about. It doesnt have to be on the roster if it is 50 years or older. I find that dealing with some people is a lost cause. What pistol are we talking about?

Someone feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but the roster only applies to what an FFL can transfer to a non FFL resident. I don't see how it applies in this case, as he is "technically" shipping it to an (03) FFL. May still be an uphill battle.

You're not going to find a law that says it's legal for C&R guns to be shipped here because that's not how laws work.

I mistook what you were saying. I figured you were talking about the C&R roster and not the Mass BS roster. Yeah, like others have said, you will not find a law. The Mass roster is for Mass dealers. It is 100% ok for you to receive the C&R elligible pistol but good luck on trying to convince the guy. Thats why I always check with the seller beforehand to make sure the deal will be ok. A simple "I am looking to use my C&R on said auction, Is this type of transaction ok with you?" I have never had a problem. I have had a few say no though and I have moved on. I rather deal with it before the close of the auction and not after it ended.

Yeah . . .
So that's what I thought. I'm pretty sure he's just scared poopless about dealing with MA.
The pistol is a CZ45. Really nice shape too.
But I don't like giving my money to people that give me a hard time.
Thanks fellas. I'm pretty sure he has decided just not to sell to me and I'm not gonna belabor the point any longer to him.

Why not have the gun shipped to an FFL in NH then transferred to you.
