If I wanted to own this holster- Attached File With this handgun- Attached File Would Form 1 be the correct stamp to apply for to legally have this combination? I know the two together are an NFA item, but I haven’t found out for sure which form people have used. |

These holsters allow the gun inside to be fired without removing it, completely concealing it while it's fired. It's kind of like a gun disguised as a wallet or similar. If it didn't have the hole fore you to reach the trigger, it'd just be another pocket holster.

But this is not considered an AOW since the slide/barrel is fully visible in "ready to fire" mode. Attached File Attached File |

| Got my Approved email this morning. I’ve filled out others with no problem, but this one seemed kind of awkward due to a non NFA handgun and a relatively obscure holster. |

I honestly never thought about engraving the holster, but it’s not something that’s likely to be leaving the house, either. |
