Maybe my bosses at the gun shop were just paranoid... who knows... it happens...
I'd say just uninformed. I've delt with a truckload of FFL holders over the years that had no idea about BATF laws. One clueless gunshop owner tells an incorrect story and his loyal customers spread the gospel because "Ol' Joe knows that gun stuff". Having the FFL doesn't mean you know or understand the gun laws.
