According to a New Jersey FFL that had a table at the Syracuse show, he could NOT deliver to any person or other dealer at that show because he was operating outside the State he was licensed in: It would have to be shipped from NJ to the dealer in the reciepients home state.
He had a copy of FAQ's from BATFE that was a little old, but fully supported that premise.
I read through 478.92~99 of CFR 27 and did not find that he was right or wrong.
Several other dealers concurred with the NJ dealer, while as many said that it wasn't so, and to add more confusion if it was a C&R licensees are exempt on C&R weapons.  
What say you and can you cite it?

What the heck then was he doing at the Syracuse show?  Seems kind of odd to go through all the trouble and not be able to sell anything.



 

I guess he was there to give out his name and number and do business when he returned to NJ.

separate warehouse used by the licensee


solely for storage of firearms or ammunition


if the records required by this part are


maintained at the licensed premises


served by such warehouse;


(b) A licensed collector may acquire


curios and relics at any location, and dispose


of curios or relics to any licensee or

Read the entire ruling!



Page #122 <snip>



27 CFR 178.41: General

(Also 178.42, 178.50)

Firearms or ammunition may not

be sold at gun shows by a licensed

dealer, but orders may be taken

under specified conditions; Revenue

Ruling 66-265 superseded.



.................................



Editor's Note:

In 1986, the GCA was amended to

allow licensees to sell firearms at gunshows

in the State in which their licensed

premises are located, and was

further amended in 1997 to allow licensees

to sell curio or relic firearms to

other licensees at any location. Moreover,

the interstate controls no longer

apply to ammunition sales. However,

the ruling is still applicable to licensees’

off-premises sales not addressed by

these amendments.




 

There are several dealers that attend: They mostly deal in rare, expensive, and exotic firearms.
Ever notice the old farts in the first few isles wearing suits & ties, the ones that have little interest in what you're carrying or even talking to you? That's some of them.  Not bad folks, just a completely different interest and mind set than most of us.

If I'm reading these codes correctly then is IS permissible for a Licensed Dealer from one State to attend a sanctioned event in another State, and for said Dealer to transfer to another Dealer or in the case of a Curio or Relic, transfer that firearm to the C&R Licensee.
