Did anybody mention the convenience of the web after you get your C&R FFL? Oh my!
I find that C&R guns especially require personal inspection, since their condition can vary so widely. (And to collectors, condition is everything.) The mistake is to think that such guns are a commodity. They are not; each has to be evaluated individually.
I had a C&R license (and, later, a regular FFL) many years ago, and I found the utility of the C&R license to be limited.
Today, I find large gun shows to be far and away the best venues for my collecting. The vendors have to compete against each other. If some have prices that are too high, they don't make any sales.
