Ok,
first your pre 1898 is not a gun per BATF so your fine there.
the second part is "dicey",he can loan it to you yes but this POA (I would guess a Specific POA-so you don't clean out his bank account) is an lot of work (I have had POA,it involved several lawyers,signatures and time)why not just do the transfer with your dealer friend ?Cheaper ,faster and legal.
To expand on your good who broke the law question.How about who has the most risk and end up in front of a judge?
I say seller (if its a set-up,if not gun gets stolen form this buyer or some other one down the line)
And who had the most to gain?
I would say Neither
Buyer get his fund either way
Seller saves $35 (minus gas)
Don't get me wrong,I am no angel,tell me about you son in-laws company getting a take over bid next week and I am all ears (the risk reward is much better)
