Why would he? He can legally refuse any sale unless his reason for doing so is because the purchaser is a member of a protected class. Some state laws expand protected classes beyond federal definition, but I am unaware of any that extend to all transactions. In Ohio a dealer can legally refuse to sell to me b/c I am overweight.I would ask the dealer to put the refusal in writing with the reason you were denied. I would then consider sending it to the appropriate parties of interest.
Sounds illegal to me if you don't have an FFL. You didn't know business activity without an FFL is illegal? Maybe one or two wouldn't draw much attention, but publicly posting about ten...Weird... I generally buy AR lowers 5 or 10 and a time when they're on sale to stockpile for the next gold rush and I've never had anyone say anything to me....
Down here in louisiana a individual can't purchase more than two handguns at a time.
If you purchase two or more the dealer has to do one of the multiple handgun forms. It is delivered to local law enforcement that day. My understanding is that picking up one a day for a week from the same delivery or using multiple FFL to avoid the form is breaking the law. I have not researched it, but generally taking actions to avoid such things is illegal. ATFE proving your reason for doing so being another issue.I've sent in at least ten multiple sale of handgun forms on each just in 2015.
