I don't get it, unless they change the definition of a firearm it doesn't qualify as something that needs to get transferred using an FFL?

I mean I get the PSP bullying Gander Mountain, but trying to enforce it as law when it clearly isn't seems a bit nutty even for Rendel.

§61O2. Definitions.
“Firearm.” Any pistol or revolver with a barrel length less than 15 inches, any shotgun with a barrel length less than 18 inches or any rifle with a barrel length less than 16 inches, or any pistol, revolver, rifle or shotgun with an overall length of less than 26 inches. The barrel length of a firearm shall be determined by measuring from the muzzle of the barrel to the face of the closed action, bolt or cylinder, whichever is applicable.
