"Legit? Yes. Honest? No."

And you make this stunning judgement based on what evidence??

I've known some of these guys personally, and they were indeed both legit and honest. People who are going to break the law aren't going to go to the trouble to get a FFL--only the squeakily honest ones will bother--same as for folks who take the trouble to get a CHL.

Some posters actually approve of the government restricting our Rights. These people are neither "conservative", nor ethical. Logic doesn't work on them. History doesn't count either.

You can try and convert them, but it is better to just identify them, then ignore their idiocy.

I didn't say they were breaking the law. As a matter of fact, I agreed with you that they were "legit". So what are you talking about?

"And you make this stunning judgement based on what evidence??"

Your own statement -- "a lot" got the license "so they and a few friends could get guns wholesale." I'm calling that behavior dishonest. Legal but dishonest.

They had no intention of buying and selling guns retail. Maintaining an inventory. Providing a service.

It was a scam. You admit it was a scam. A way to get guns cheap. You think that's honest?

This attitude is the reason we have so many laws in this country -- "hey, if it's legal they can do it and don't you dare criticize them or accuse them of being dishonest".
