I was talking to a Brit on a forum and told him that if he makes it to Colorado we can take an open carry stroll together.
A firearms dealer on the forum told me that it would be a violation of Federal law.
My take on it, is that if it is my gun, and he is with me while carrying it, he is not really in possession any more than he would be if he rented a handgun at the range, and no transfer has taken place.
My uncle was an NFA dealer, and he told me that as long as I was in his shop, or with him, I could play with his stuff all I wanted, and it was not considered possession or a transfer.
What do you think?
EDIT: The dealer just told me that in his opinion, it is a violation of Federal law for a foreign tourist to rent an gun at a range, and the owners of the ranges are unaware of it.
