re: ATF and DOJ say you can't sell a firearm without an FFL license

For instance if someone bout a $75 sks 20 years ago its worth 4-700 now. Can the person not sell the sks for market value?

As I read it, I would think that owning a gun for 20 years and then selling it would not meet this criteria.

But who knows what our DOJ would decide? Which is why I tend to be leery.

I would think the primary objective is to have prosecutorial means for dealing with straw man purchasers who resell for profit to criminals or those who would not otherwise pass a background check. But, again, we have seen how folks with an agenda that is not the same as the law sometimes manipulate these things to their own ends.
