1. Does anyone know if it is legal to sell a C&R eligible rifle to an out of state C&R holder? I'm a Mass. C&R holder and have a Cooey Model 82 trainer rifle that i've had offers on from out of state C&R holders. I bought the rifle using my LTC instead of giving the store owner a copy of my C&R so I figured it had to stay in state. Exchanging C&R license with a buyer and shipping it UPS seems legal enough, but with the Mass. laws being so screwy, i'm not so sure.
2. I know someone who bought a 70+ year old Swiss straight pull rifle from a gun show a year or so ago and gave the seller a copy of their C&R but never bothered to get a receipt or copy in return. He logged the purchase in his book but has nothing for a source except gun show/private seller. Is there a way he can correct this or is he ok? He says hes not worried about it but I told him that if hes ever audited I think he could be in trouble.
