Aren’t they and reproduction considered antique models and therefore no need to get a license to get one?

Note: Many online stores who sells it still has to ship it to a FFL dealer why,and do you need a license to acquire it from the dealer?
Wow, thank you everyone!
All these answers look great and thoughtful, its too hard for me to choose the best one!
BTW I live in the Bay Area in California.

I sold a pistol to a Pa. resident and I live in NY. My FFL dealer says I can ship it direct to an FFL dealer in PA. using just my driver’s license. I have a copy of the PA. dealer FFL. Is this true?
But my county clerk says I need a receipt from a NY. FFl showing that it was sold to have it remove from my permit!?

well, i am looking to order the DPMS Panther Carbine here in the very near future. They have prices on the internet but obviously wont sell it to any regular Joe, because my lack of FFL. Well, how would one go about acquiring one of these rifles, would i have to find a FFL dealer licensed with DPMS? will they mark it up more than what DPMS website shows? im just curious, because on gunsamerica.com, they are a little more expensive.

Thank Very Much,
Ryan S.

I have two handguns I’d like to sell (on consignment/to a licensed FFL dealer) but I’ve only recently looked at the laws in Michigan and I’m not sure what to do, or if I may have broken any laws.

Handgun #1
I used to live in Texas and received a handgun as a gift there. At least at the time, there was no requirement to register handguns. I moved to Michigan (Wayne county) several years ago and brought it with me. It’s just been sitting around and rusting but I could really use the cash now so I looked into selling. I was told by friends here when I moved that I didn’t need to, but NOW that I’m looking over Michigan law, I find that handgun registration is the law here! So I’m pretty sure that I need to register this weapon whether I sell it or not but I’m worried that there may be some fines (or worse) for having waited so long to do it. I can’t provide a bill of sale or a previous registration card for above reasons.

Handgun #2
I inherited from my Mom’s recently deceased fiancĂ©. He had no written will but his other step-son (only other heir) told me he hated guns and that I should have it. I would like to sell this weapon too but am unsure if I need to re-register it first since I’m not the original owner it was registered to. I can’t provide a written Will or original registration (haven’t found it yet) but can provide a death cert. and I’m sure the step-son would vouch for me if necessary, if that helps at all.

I really want to do this the right way but am unsure how to do it. And I’m also a little concerned about getting a felony or something just for (stupidly) not filling out a form on handgun #1 years ago, so I’m reluctant to ask local law enforcement first. Thanks for your help.
