I was selling Commercial mauser actions for a number of years (until they got cut off by remington) and have had dealers tell me they didnt need to send an FFL since it wasnt a complete firearm!! An FFL doesnt make you smart or knowledgable of BATFE rules thats for sure. Sort of like people thinking that Cops are fireamrs experts and expert shots.
Yes you will find dealers selling old stuff and telling you "nah, you dont need to do a 4473 for this". I guess some people are have dumb luck. The law is the law.
There are lots of stories about ignorant dealers that dont know the rules. i could go on. But my point in all of my responses and the same for others here is: get clarification from ATF.
