  1. Tick has a real problem here, mostly starting with OLDER SHOOTERS, who have been around a while and don't like the way they preceive things going. USPSA rules are starting to be enforced, and it take "some of the fun" out of things for some people. Few, if any of his problem folks have taken a leadership role in the last five years or more, but kibitz from the sideline. Few would be a loss to the club, and new member retention would go up.

  2. NO! Unless you are a dealer, or state law requires, you are not getting a copy of our FFL. You can legally ship for repairs or transfer to an FFL holder under Federal law. If you choose to have an FFL holder ship the gun, the dealers will exchange licenses. GunBroker has a clause about the seller getting a copy of FFL’s, but we will not send one except to another dealer. Funny things happen with licenses floating around, even when marked “File Copy”, and clearly a copy.

    Had a gun trace once were the gun was shown received by us from a basement dealer. No record of the gun, and no license on file. No out for the gun. Turns out under audit, this guy had a handfull of other shop licenses, from one customer, but did a face to face handover of several guns with no 4473. None of the other shops had his FFL. Complete fraud.

    Last year, of 3000 transfers, 10% were non-4473. If you have a question of the dealers standing or viability, go to ATF and use EZ-CHECK.

    And if you want to make it easy on the receiving FFL, include a clear copy of your state ID.

  3. Active military in California? He may be stuck with the Springfield, which is not all that bad. The loaded models seem to do well in our area, and run with box ammo fine. While I would probably go for the Spartan elsewhere, it may not be an option for him at this point in time.

  4. Concealed or hammerless is the way to go. Standard carry trigger job will slick it a bit, and the 340 will not hang-up as easily on the draw. Forces the use of intentional double action only pull, which in most areas is a good thing.
