Engage Armament, I'm not anywhere around you and have never been to your shop. I can see where you might be concerned, and if nothing else, you've learned something about the law along with me. I did see the comments you made about the BW and half-size and I haven't said I doubt you or that BW/half-size copying is illegal.
The point I have made from the start is that it is not a legal requirement for the customer to have his DL copied. Therefore, I think the customer should be informed of that fact by the FFL before his license is copied. I don't think that's unreasonable at all. Not trying to trip you up or anything, but if a customer just politely refused to allow his DL to be copied, would you refuse the sale?
I did make the comment that if I couldn't beat 'em I'd join 'em and "curry favor with our bureaucratic overlords by informing on others for a reward"; I thought in the context it was clear I was mocking a certain mindset obviously contrary to my own but if it caused you concern or worry I apologize.
Clandestine, I shouldn't have to ask someone if they are going to creep off and copy my DL while I fill out paperwork. That is the height of absurdity. I've never seen a sign in a gun shop saying it is their policy to copy DL's but I've never been in yours. Maybe you do have one and maybe you tell everyone buying a gun that as part of your policy you plan to copy it. I mentioned several posts back that is all I wanted, so it sounds as if now you are agreeing with me.
Jawn, I agree with you for the most part, although I don't think I've expressed any hostility to FFL's in general or to FFL's who are upfront and honest about DL's. As I said way back, if someone wants a copy and makes it clear it is not a legal requirement, that's fine by me. Part of the reason this state is so screwed up, as you noted, is that people have become too accustomed to just giving up to go along with every new rule and regulation.
