I got a C&R FFL awhile back mainly for the Brownells/Midway USA discounts, as my interests pretty much lie at the modern end of the firearms spectrum. But I got a Yugo SKS awhile back just because I could get one shipped to my door with the C&R. But now I'm running out of room in my safe, so I want to sell it to make room for a different rifle.
Now I know it's legal for C&Rs to sell firearms and I know about entering the seller's info in the bound book and all that. What I'm not sure on is whether a C&R FFL can sell at a gun show.
Since a C&R is a licensed collector, not an importer, manufacture or dealer, the law shown above seems to indicate that they may not conduct business at a gun show. But I know that people buy guns with their C&R FFLs at gun shows all the time, and the above law doesn't separate purchasing guns from selling guns.
So am I missing some other law somewhere else that lets C&R FFLs buy and sell at gun shows, or is it not legal?
