So, just my little opinion.
I don't know if this "phone photo" is the real police form thing, but, if it is i spot few problems in between buyer and seller.
The buyer: if they produce it to prove anything they are straight away WRONG, as they are falsifying a official document, then committing a crime, if they have use a supposed police officer name without permit they are wrong again…
The seller: been the seller a very well stablished business the people work for them must be trained to deal with all kinds of situations they may come across, they should be able to identify a not fully completed document(in my opinion), i always have my online forms signed and stamped by the officer who do sight it.
So, in both ways they are wrong!
I believe all certified firearms, ammunition and its variants should have access to a national online firearms database, this way these retailers could double check the buyer information is correct or if the F.A.L. is actually current. For those who are selling privately it is a must to check the appropriate documentation and if not sure if it is legal or valid just call a police station/office and check the details of the person who you intend to "send/deliver" the goods.
Well, hope it make some sense to you guys.
Shame a lot of restrictions has been imposed on us "law" abide and responsible gun owners because someone want/need to prove a point(i must agree it unfortunately is/was a good point)
Cheers.
