 I read the other thread, but am wondering about the assisted opening reference here.  I just bought an assisted opening knife at the Tractor Supply in Lincoln. Not legal?

That would be for the lawyers to determine, and IANAL...  but I wouldn't lose much sleep over it.


As for the above quote from the ATF by Mr. Hineline, I think this is the key portion of it...

such term shall not include a person who makes occasional sales, exchanges, or purchases of firearms for the enhancement of a personal collection or for a hobby, or who sells all or part of his personal collection of firearms.

Personally, I'd like to hope common sense would prevail and someone who "flips" maybe three or four guns in his life isn't a dealer, per se. 

If I go to the gun show and see a GP-100 327 magnum with some carbon fouling spots at 32 Auto depth in the chambers that needs a little scrubbing (ref another recent thread), and it is a good price, I'd be tempted to buy it for expected appreciation only. Those 327s are a hot commodity now since the manufacturers let the cartridge fade even further into obscurity.
