MDC....the dealer is correct...once he's logged the gun in, there are only a few "correct" ways to log it out. It can be logged out to a non-licensed person living in the same state along with form 4473, it can be shipped to any FFL dealer as long as the dealer has a signed copy of the other dealers license, or it can be returned to its original (non-licensed) owner, if it was shipped to the dealer for repair. Just because some dealers might just return the shotgun to its owner, don't fault this dealer for wanting a correct and legal disposition for every firearm leaving his book....
