Quote History Quoted:
He has not tried filling out the 4473 AS the trust....
<----FFL
He doesn't fill out the 4473 any differently than if he were buying it himself.
If you read the instructions on the 4473, you'll see that if the buyer is a corporation or other business entity, then an officer authorized by the business completes Section A with his personal information. He must also submit a written statement that the purchase if for the business.
The dealer will then run the FBI NICS check. I don't believe Oklahoma has a firearm permit that serves as an exemption to the NICS check.
If your friend thinks he gets to bypass NICS he is flat wrong.
I told him to contact his atty and get clarification.
He should run from the attorney as the attorney hasn't come anywhere close to giving good advice.
I myself never heard of a trust or corp filling out section A as the entiry instead of a person which is when I had to tell him to seek further advice before the FFL looks at him like he's nuts.
As long as the dealer bothers to read the instructions on the 4473 everything should be okay. Sadly, some refuse to do so and rely on what they "think" the law is.
