The 5th Circuit had struck down several of the Biden changes. My IOI told me due to this, I did not have to comply with them, and he could not enforce them. A few weeks later SCOTUS issued a stay, he called me up and said now I do have to comply with them. These cases are not over, so there will be more changes in the next year. And each month there are more and more challenges rooted from Bruen, so it will get more confusing before it gets less confusing. |

What confidential information was in the post? the unresolved transaction itself should have stayed confidential until resolved. Not run as a play by play on the internet by arrogant know it alls.

perhaps you already covered this in a prior post and I missed it, why did you get the gun? Was it for a customer or were you going to re-sell it? It looks sort of rough just from the photo.

If it is a pre-model 10 pre-1957 "hand ejector" it should have the serial #:
1. Under the barrel flat, with the letter B far out in front of the # if it was blued. (I get it. Barrels can be changed) 2. On the cylinder. (you can't find a six digit #, which seems odd, unless defaced) 3. Under the ejector star. (Again, can be changed out, but worth looking for) 4. On one grip. Depending on how old, could be in pencil. (I get it. Grips may not be original.) 5. Obviously, the important part for the Batfe, the frame, where you can't make it out, which is your main problem. 6. I believe there's one other area, perhaps near or on crane with a serial #? (again, part can be changed) Did you ask the customer for the gunbroker auction #, to look at the sale ad? Non-ffl here trying to help you out. |

2 pages of drama,
as an FFL, on the rare instance I come across something like this, I simply contact my local ATF office, send them a pic, and ask for guidance, so far, the guidance has been, for a scrubbed and renumbered 1903 Colt, that was renumbered in an obviously different font, was go ahead and sell, shit happens to firearms, not all is malicious, |

It's about the legality of complying with federal law on the possession of a firearm with a defaced serial number. Your local ATF office gave you faulty advice. Good luck with that. |

The firearm was logged out of my A&D book to the police department for it to be destroyed. The customer was given a copy of the report which he sent to the selling dealer who issued him a refund. I have no idea if or when the ATF will be contacting the dealer who shipped the contraband firearm. |
