c&r renewal - AR15.COM

Posted: 6/30/2016 7:00:00 PM EDT

I received my application for renewal in the mail and the instructions state all new responsible persons have to submit fingerprints
and a photo. I do not remember this before and what is up with that? Does that apply to me or if I add someone to it. Or just new
Applicants. Please advise

Are you sure it's not talking about NFA trusts?

I'm pretty sure that is if you are an FFL01 and have employees, not C&R FFLs. Kind of like the business hours.

I would like to think so too. But it does not state that. The instruction sheet is for for 8 part ii by the way

Any updates?

I got mine yesterday, filled it out and sent it back. Not sure what OP is looking at. As a C&R you don't have to fool with that stuff. What makes it confusing to some is the ATF uses one generic form for all FFL renewals, not just C&R's, so alot of it doesn't apply.

Just received my renewal, kind of thinking of just allowing it to expire though. Any reason to keep a C&R license around these days with everything dried up?

Never filled out a fingerprint card for a C&R.

And I still the versatility in having a license. Plenty of other guns out there that are 50yrs old that make it worth while.

I had the same question, about photos and fingerprints, which I'd not remembered from the orignal document.

Possibly the same renewal form is used for 01 and 03 FFLs, so there are questions that don't apply to 03, while the original application is a dedicated document, so for 03 it does not ask about photos and prints.

I was on the fence too. It pays for itself with 2 buys, and is far eaiser to use than coordinating with a FFL for purchase, and then pick up.

Plus, I feel like I'm saying "Screw you King Barry" every time the UPS man drops a firearm off at my door, and that's hard to put a price on, besides being wonderful.

I dont know where you see anything about prints and pbotos except maybe the instuction sheet, which i promptly garbage. The renewal has not changed in over 6 years and no where on the form does it say anything about prints.

I swear you guys would over think a wet dream. Its just a simple gov form not a death warrent

Can the insults and Mr. Know it All attitude. This is a techincal forumn, not a way to show how wonderful you are.

With the 41F change on NFA items to require prints and fingerprints, it would not be out of the question that ATF now required that for even 03 FFL licences, hence the posts about it, for those going through their first renewal.

I just filled out a renewal last week, it's not changed in the last 6 years, and there is nothing on the form about prints or photos, thus the reason why I posted that above. 41F has zero to do with FFL renewals, other than it's sent to the ATF.

How else would you like me to state it to you? Lighten up Francis

Did my renewal and got it off in the mail on September 8. Got the new one back in the mail on Friday, September 23. That's about the fastest turnaround I have had on a renewal. Didn't notice any big changes on the renewal application.

You really only need to buy one or two guns in the three years to earn your money back. Numrich still gives deals to CCR holders and there are some new auction sites out there popping up that have better prices than gunbroker.

Good to hear, I just sent my renewal a week ago or so, maybe I'll get it soon!
