If you start researching, you'll see an email exchange from Jan 2013 involving Dana Pickles at the ATF. It was an NC issue, not a federal issue. There used to me a statute you had to quote as the transfer reason (I believe for any NFA item) in NC. It was really odd, especially for anybody with NFA experience from another state. 3. I think so, but not sure. Even though I have 3 dozen or so stamps, I haven't dipped my toes into the FA end of the NFA pool. I'd recommend giving Scott at THSF a call. He owns quite a few and has transferred several for his customers. I'm sure he could walk you through it. |

With the recent ruling on Heller/McDonald extending to all arms in the Caetano and progress that Nolo is trying to make for Trusts to manufacture Form 1 MG's...I've started to look into exactly what it takes to own a MG in NC. I'm really perplexed by the MG permit thing as you can't find much of anything on the web about it other than that you're supposed to get one from you local sheriff's office before you can transfer one into your possession.
If anyone can post some more info on MG permits and if it only applies to transfers vs a legal Form 1 manufacturing if that becomes an option, I'd appreciate it. Thanks Wes |

You can't find much because they're not required anymore. I think it was HB650 in 2011, which the ATF finally recognized in 2013. As long as you don't put the old "scientific research" reason, you won't need one

I'm sorry if this has been covered earlier but I didn't see it. I've seen some stuff about CLEO signature still being needed for a trust, but some of it is kind of old and some of it is contradictory. Can anyone tell me what exactly the deal is?

View Quote For now, CLEO sig, plus photos and fingerprints, are only required for individual applications. Starting 7/13/16, CLEO certification becomes CLEO notification (you send them a copy of the form, plus a 5320.23 for each responsible person) for all applications...so no "approval" needed. But, prints and photos will also be required for everybody. |

Called NC Silencers today and they said that all that is needed to permanently bring (already stamped F4) suppressors/MG to NC is an ATF 5320, and that it isn't necessary to get county CLEO sign-off or notification anymore because of HB 562... Can anyone confirm this? |

(They've also closed up shop a couple months ago, except for transferring items already in process) MGs were the only exception to the rule before, and the rule actually changed in 2011 but the ATF didn't figure it out until Jan 2013. |

With the possibility of the HPA passing, what are the NC laws pertaining to suppressors? I saw that in Tx the stamp is the affirmative defense, meaning that the law will have to be changed. Does NC have any similar problem?

Part of the HPA includes a section basically stating no local laws can change the federal law: SEC. 4. PREEMPTION OF CERTAIN STATE LAWS IN RELATION TO FIREARM SILENCERS. Section 927 of title 18, United States Code, is amended by adding at the end the following: “Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a law of a State or a political subdivision of a State that, as a condition of lawfully making, transferring, using, possessing, or transporting a firearm silencer in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce, imposes a tax on any such conduct, or a marking, recordkeeping or registration requirement with respect to the firearm silencer, shall have no force or effect.”. |

Did my first Form 1 to SBR my .300 blackout pistol last week, went to see Scott at Tar Heel State Firearms and he took good care of me. Also had my lower engraved while I was there to save me a trip back out there. I can't recommend them enough, super friendly and very responsive to my emails. I can't wait till I can go back to get a suppressor from them in the future. So happy to have someplace local to me where I can go for all my NFA needs. Thanks to BigWaylon for recommending them on here, Scott's wife did mention you while I was there, she had high praise for you.

So I just want to be clear on a few things....
Moving from out of state into NC with MG's and SBR's, and suppressors is not big deal anymore. Just need the 5320 correct? Buying MG's, do not need cleo permission anymore correct? If HPA passes, It will not help anyone living in NC, correct? Are there any pro FA private clubs that do subgun matches on the eastern half of the state? |

This is a little more generalized than NC, but anyway... My brother is stationed in a no NFA state for the time being. He wants to Form 1 an SBR and SBS and set up a trust so he can store the guns with me, a happy surrogate. Since he is in the military, this will continue to be useful for him as he could always be sent overseas or somewhere otherwise not NFA friendly. With that in mind, if I add an item to the trust, can they be stored at different addresses? I know the 5320.20 can be filled out for individual items, but will there be an issue with the ATF if my brother changes the address for his items in the trust but I keep mine?

Where do you guys go to shoot your FA in Charlotte?
I know Blackstone and CSA are cool with it but outdoors would be better. Currently I travel 1.5 hrs to shoot outdoors. |

Does anyone know where to get fingerprinting done around the Fayetteville area, other than the Sheriffs Office? They have no available slots open until May, according to their website. I am looking to do another Form 1 but I haven't completed any since 2014-15 so I have been catching up on the new regulations.

Definitely DIY. Info in the link above. Order a stack of cards (for free, not even a charge for shipping) from the ATF.
I filled out another set of cards this past Saturday. Really easy to do. |
