I have a valid CWP (not that it matters in my shop) and now an FFL (as a sole-proprieter)..

My IOI said via phone I need to 'tag' it "Not for Sale".. and log it in/out of my A&D book..

I know personal firearms kept mixed (in the same safe/display) or on display need to be 'tagged' as such.. but a CWP firearm??

The CWP firearm is also going to be ALWAYS on my hip (so to speak)..

I have no other 'personal' firearms AT ALL on the premise (which is a store front)..

What says other FFL's...??? Anyone of you folks ever here of this particular thing?? Should I email the local ATF supervisor and ask the question??

Never had to tag carry weapons working at a store, or know anyone who has.

I've never heard that your carry gun had to be tagged before. Have you talked to their supervisor?  You could always get a replacement barrel that says it's personal around the muzzle. When they wanna see the tag, show them

I've never heard of tagging a personal carry weapon either - I've been carrying in my shop for 12 years now without so much as a peep from the IOI. I would continue to carry and wouldn't worry about it.

It only has to be tagged if it is in store overnight.

This actually makes sense to me..

This.
ATF doesn't want to come in for a compliance inspection and find guns in inventory/display case/workbench/safe/vault/etc that aren't on your books.

It would appear to them that you aren't logging guns into your bound book.

On the other hand you could make a good argument that all "business" guns have a price tag.

Truth...  



 

Concealed means concealed.

Needs to be tagged as personal if stored with biz guns.  Carrying isn't storing.
