What I have never understood in the FFL licensing is whether there is a mandate to sell when the letter of the law has been met, or is it like a liquor license that has the clause "We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone".
For example if one has a real estate license but refuses to show a house because of the potential buyer's race or gender, they can potentially lose their license and be fined.
Does an FFL holder have the right to refuse to sell a gun to a potential buyer (who has every legal right to purchase that gun) because the buyer refuses to pay a fee that is not required under Federal Law?
I suppose the only answer would be to sue one of these guys in Federal Court in the case where a demand for a fee not required to legally purchase a gun coming under the BATF antique clause is made.
Any lawyers out there want to volunteer?
Happy New Year to all.
