Century Arms refusing Handgun sales to MD C&R FFL03 collectors

[pez34a]

Policy outlined here: http://www.centuryarms.com/Century/pages/policies.htm

There seems to be a bit of luck-of-the-draw regarding enforcement of this; there are some reports of specific orders getting through by some sales people anyway. But the policy is quite clear: they will only ship handguns to an FFL01 dealer. They are ok with long guns to a FFL03 for now.

They won't cancel the order; they will instead try to get you to have the handgun mailed to an FFL01 where one will have to then pay the transfer fee and MSP fee. You'll have to call to cancel.

Why worry about our bad politicians when companies are implementing these kinds of policies for them, even when such commerce is entirely legal?

In the future, I will think twice about ordering from Century, even for long guns they would otherwise fulfill.

Never had a problem with them sending handguns to me.

I haven't heard anything one way or the other on my CZ82 order. I ordered it Monday.

Any thoughts on the U Fix Em guns? Especially the Type 53? Is it worth it to get a few? Or just get the special with the cracked stock?

 

[Mooseman]

Sarco is the same.

 

[Docster]

Sarco is the same.

And Sarco has resisted all attempts to educated them.

And Sarco has resisted all attempts to educated them.

AND they mislabel sh*t on their website.

I had a long battle with sarco about C&R even sent them an email directly from the MSP and they still refused fo work with me. They are so afraid of doing something go get in trouble with that state of Md they would rather go without the business from it.

Very frustrating.

Do C&R handguns get any special treatment under SB281?

Nothing 'special' ... just the prohibition on mags over 10 rounds will stand starting in Oct
