That just seems like too much work. Just take the thing apart! Or keep it!

Why would an FFL do this?

Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.
--Cesare, Marquis of Beccaria, "On Crimes and Punishment" -
Did you ask the selling FFL this question? It'd be interesting to see his response!Mortal as I am, I know that I am born for a day. But when I follow at my pleasure the serried multitude of the stars in their circular course, my feet no longer touch the earth.

After taking your money, it was his way of saying va fanculo.
I once read a post from an out-of-state FFL on another site that stated he'd ship to "Kali" for 25 bucks extra, and take a ballpeen to the mags before shipment. I tried to do a little education and got told to go make in my hat.The way some gunshop clerks spout off, you'd think that they invented gunpowder and the repeating rifle, and sat on the Supreme Court as well.

It's a hicap. The local FFL cannot lawfully give him the mag, and is under no legal obligation to give it to him in parts as a rebuild kit.
The OP has no legal recourse here.Please read the Calguns Wiki

What on earth are you talking about?
LARGE CAPACITY MAGAZINES are illegal to import into California. .22LR has nothing to do with it, and the arbitrary number of "50" doesn't mean a damn thing.
A large capacity magazine is defined as any magazine holding more than 10 rounds, regardless of caliber.Please read the Calguns Wiki

M47 Dragon... You are absolutely right. Me, Snelling, & one of his customers waiting to pick up his gun, just looked at the "3-piece mag" when I opened the case and was just speechless. The guy waiting said (under his breath), "S***! He cut up your mag!!". I just picked up the rifle and checked it out like it was no big deal and said, "the gun isn't as heavy as I remember" or something stupid like that. Bob didn't say a word but the look on his face said tons! Ha Ha. Driving back to the office all I could think was, "WTF was he thinkin'?".
About glueing it back together.... He didn't send the feed lips he cut off so that's definitely out of the question.
I sent the FFL an email but I'm still waiting. I'm not holding my breath either.
A friend did tell me something I hadn't thought of tho... Perhaps their definition of "disassembled" is different than mine. LOLComment

That's just it. That wasn't the safest thing. The safest thing would have been to just keep the mag for himself. That's why I'm so baffled.Please read the Calguns Wiki
