At the end of the day all of us have the right to buy or sale under the terms we are most comfortable with and that fall within the laws of the land. If you want to require NRA membership I suppose you could do that. I know guys that will only sell to friends/relatives with a receipt. Others just require the minimum required by law. I understand why someone would not want a LTCH and I also understand why someone might require it even if it's not required by law. As I stated earlier, if you reach out to the seller and explain that you are a law abiding Indiana resident without a felony conviction and OH BY THE WAY you're a combat veteran of the USMC my guess is you'll be shooting your new rifle in short order in most instances. Thats just my honest opinion.
