O is using the term “dealer” to mean anyone who sells any number of guns for profit. We all now that a “dealer” in firearms must have a FFL. Contrary to some ignorant BS I have been reading in the media only licensed dealers can sell new guns. New guns come from the manufacturer, to a distributor and then to a FFL dealer. Each step is documented and traceable by the ATF to that first retail customer. Now, I used to explain this to my customers. If they transfer that gun to someone else and it is used and recovered in a crime, guess what? There is going to be a loud knock on their door and some explaining to be done. In my opinion it is not smart to dispose of that firearm that you bought new to someone with no questions asked.

Not at all. Here in MA, you MUST record any such transfer, loss or theft on the Commonwealth's website. Otherwise, you still own it even if you don't have possession. If it is used in the commission of a crime, you're screwed.
