checkering...no problem if all you get is the wood. The action is the only part that's at all of an issue, right?
More to the point for someone like me, what happens if a good friend decides he wants me to stock a gun for him? We're at the range, his gun cracks at the wrist, and I offer to stock it. He leaves his gun with me for a few months and I restock it as a favor with a blank he buys. Legal? I read the law and it certainly sounded legal, but am all ears if someone can point me to a specific reference that says otherwise--I couldn't find one. (in my state at least he can sell me that gun with no transfer, no paperwork, no nuthin'--and we're completely legal)
That is perfectly legal,even if he pays you as long as your are not "in the business"
What about if my friend gives me a really nice english walnut blank in trade for my efforts? Now I'm not making money, but I'm being compensated...
Now, what happens if that friend lives out of state and hand-delivers that gun? I'm no pro and have no intention of being one, I don't make a dime since it's only a hobby I've done on my own guns, but we're starting to get a little grayer...is that gun loaned?
Thoughts?
