But what if your rabbit hunting buddy is in town for the wedding?

But Dave....extenuating circumstances... there’s rabbits.
Almost got caught up in a scheme by a nephew...Who lives in La.
Wanted me to cobble together an AR for his dad ...Whose a felon...Lives in Stickville Tx.
I'm no but hell no bubba,I don't want to have any part of this business....
Informed him to tell his dad to go and buy an AR in Texas,I won't and will not build Jack-Diddly sheets for him or dear old dad ...
Now I'm the A-hole...lol
Like I care !
Was he looking to use it to go rabbit hunting? It appears there's an exception to the federal law for hunting rabbits.
Hunting wabbits .
Speaking of wabbits, I wonder what ever happened to that madwabbit guy. He was funny.

I am an attorney. I know a good bit about the law, but more importantly, I know how to read laws. This is not a "gray area" of the law. It is very clear, and well settled. For an individual to legally transfer a firearm to another individual, they must both be residents of the same state.
The exception is inheritance. That means someone dies. That does not mean any transfer or gift between family members. Guns left to someone through a will, or through intestate succession (without a will), may be transferred to out of state persons to carry out the succession. That means someone leaves a gun to you in a will, or if a relative dies and you inherit his guns without a will due to the laws of succession, ie. your unmarried father dies without a will you and any siblings inherit his property.
As for FFLs knowing the law, there is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON TO EXPECT AN FFL TO KNOW THE LAW! FFLs should know the rules that they have to follow regarding transfers, background checks, record keeping, etc. What the BATF tells them they must do. There is no reason they should know any other laws.
Query........would it make any difference if the individual and his buddy were hunting ducks instead of wabbits........(nodding sagely, stroking my beard while wearing my college professor corduroy blazer with elbow patches)
That's a good question. I'd bet the ATF would say that's a no-go. But we'd better check with the experts at magdump's FFL to be sure. I wonder if his offer from post 21 to provide the phone numbers for a few of his ffl holders is still valid.
I’m sure that post will get redacted at a some point. Wouldn’t want to have his FFL’s blaming him for some internet *trolls* providing the actual law.
Interestingly, his last post was in this thread on Sunday night close to midnight. He was online as late as yesterday at 9:00 pm. But he didn't address his claim. Maybe he just forgot about this thread. I'm curious to hear his response, especially on the issue of if hunting ducks instead of rabbits changes the legality of the transaction.
Maybe PM him and see if he forgot about us? I'd still like to take up his offer on reaching out to his FFLs.
He just posted an ad so he should be along here any minute to address everyone's concerns. Surely he can't possibly think ignoring this thread will make it go away.
