I'm sure you're right. If any of those omissions were used in crime, the BATF would be shouting it from the rooftops. And 8 or 9 transactions a year isn't indicative of black market transactions, not to mention there wouldn't be any paperwork at all. Hopefully he won't be put out of business over this.
Right. It's an old family business. I think he should get some consultation, take a course, and present the judge with his new system of organization, indicating Oscar Madison is longer his mentor, and he's truely reformed. Being the court's in Idaho, and the judge probably grew up there, I think there's a good chance he'll get his license back.
