So this should never have involved an FFL and should have reverted back to original ownership immediately like all the other firearms.Of course the 209A guy should have got his guns back...
But, couldn't Tombstone at least just given the AR15 receiver back and then maybe sent the upper to a gunsmith to install a different brake?
I would also like clarification on the transfer back to the 209A guy.
Are they supposed to just hand it over after you pay the fee or can they refuse because its a "post ban" Glock?
And, then decide to keep it for themselves after you cant afford to pay the fee forever?
I always thought that "post ban" Glocks would be lost forever if taken to a Bonded Warehouse because it's "illegal" to sell a new Glock.
This also bring to light another problem...
What if you do have an upper with a flash hider. Totally separate from a lower.
Would that be confiscated by the PD and kept forever by the Bonded Warehouse?
An AR15 upper is only an unregulated part if it is not connected to a lower.
I was the one who started a thread on a more customer oriented "Bonded Warehouse".
One that could be on call to collect your stuff right away before the PD gets involved.
"Gun Recovery and Safe Keeping Membership Club": Alternative to Bonded Warehouse loss
This is what I want a FFL at the mill to do for our community: Somebody needs to start a "Gun Recovery and Safe Keeping Membership Club". Offer truly fair rates for gun and ammo storage. Post the actual rates on a website and create an estimator app directly built into the website. You select...www.northeastshooters.com
There were many chances for them to have an easy out, but it didn't work that way. So somehow guns that were never going to go to a bonded warehouse ended up at a bonded warehouse.
Once the guns are in their possession they are required to log them in and do a background check as normal. There is no legal way for them to transfer the gen 5 Glock without first having framed it. They didn't and there was a new FA10 done through dealer MIRCS for a whole gun. Which as you said is illegal. Can't really speak to the nebulous vacuum that is the bonded warehouse/police department relationship and where that might end up. We all know how Village Vault did it.
