I would be leery of the ATF's tech lab, as they've been know to drastically modify weapons to get semi-auto firearms to fire in full auto, to get convictions in court.
When I read the OP's post, I interpreted the tax-stamp section as, 'if it was an auto I would be filing for a tax stamp...'. Unless the OP edited his post after some of you folks read it and before I did then I guess I just have a different interpretation.If I were denied the Right to receive my legal semi-auto firearm I would certainly make sure to get write down their names/info from the identification and clearly ask if they are denying you the Right to receive your own property.
That being said, you mentioned tax stamp so maybe you live in an area where not everyone can own a semi-auto?
Either way, I wouldn't roll over on that, and I wouldn't care of the FFL owner after that.
Certainly. However, the M1919 does indeed begin the firing cycle with the bolt fully closed.The terms "open bolt" and "closed bolt" referred to the position of the bolt when the weapon is cocked and ready to fire. Of course, in order to go BANG, the bolt would have to be "closed".
I believe there's a South African 7.62x51mm version which fires from the open bolt to prevent cook-offs. Admittedly not a common variation, nor would a semi-auto version be likely to be approved.Certainly. However, the M1919 does indeed begin the firing cycle with the bolt fully closed.
Really? Should all AR-15s and M-1As be marked the same way?I am sorry guys, I don't see where the FFL did anything wrong! It should have been marked as semi auto only!
