Walter said it well, "He can operate his business anyway he wants to."
As an FFL holder who primarily uses it to ship my own guns and projects, I almost never take a gun from a non-FFL unless it is a client. There is a certain insulation from gun crime and legal situations in the legitimacy of an FFL and it is my choice to do business as I please. I would accept a gun from Walter anytime, a man of know integrity who uses his name in public, but I'd think twice about receiving one from a fellow calling himself Dogon or Replacement.
It only makes sense to check it out before you ship to avoid bringing potentail hassles upon oneself.
Looks like you're one of the unnecessary troublemakers who needs to learn and follow the laws regarding FFLs. Insisting that an FFL is used on the sending end does not accomplish a darn thing. The shipping FFL does not do a background check on the seller. All he does is cost the seller more money and inconvenience. All without being required by law and all without accomplishing anything to do with potential crime.
