One thing I can clear up. The receiving FFL dealer IS the seller as far as the law is concerned. How the gun got to him is irrelevant; he is the one who logs it into his book, does the federal paperwork, does the NICS check, and complies with any waiting period laws.
I don't know the whole story, but the only real recourse is to wait until the dealer can deliver the gun. The customer can't demand the dealer set his business hours for one customer's convenience. Of course, Blaisenguns can rant and rave and take his future business elsewhere; I doubt the dealer will mourn the loss.
BrBoyer, Could you please show me where Jim was incorrect in ANY part of his post? And I don't mean from your own point of view but from LAW please. The reason I ask is, I have been buying and selling firearms for pretty close to 4 decades now and I happen to know just a smidge. I see absolutely nothing incorrect in his post. As far as who LEGALLY owns the firearm, it IS the FFL dealer in Possession of the firearm before the closure of the 4473 and NICS check PERIOD. I don't give 2 hoots what state you are in son that is FEDERAL law and can not be overridden by ANY state mandate. Until that weapon is RELEASED to you after the NICS and form 4473 has been satisfied it is OWNED by that FFL. If he so chooses he can send it back wherever it came from and be well within his LEGAL rights to do so. I would just like to see you cite some Florida law that states otherwise. Thanks
