I especially hate that those nutless assholes can just change the rules. No law, no congressional oversight, nothing. View Quote There is a law which authorizes these actions. 26 USC 5822 (which deals with making a firearm which is regulated by the NFA) authorizes the "Secretary" to prescribe forms and regulations three times. As is usually the case, Congress has written a statute which exercises authority which it doesn't have and then delegates that authority to the Executive branch. |

why would 41F keep you from owning NFA stuff? it adds fingerprints to the trust option and removes the CLEO signoff from the individual option. I prefer the individual ownership option, so 41f is a plus for me. it just trims off the CLEO signoff it was a non-issue for me anyway, my local CLEO would sign off on a nuclear weapon fingerprints and photos wow, what an insurmountable barrier to owning an NFA item that's like 20 minutes out of your life that you'll never get back again.

Everything about the NFA is antiquated because it came out of the 1930s. There's no point to most of it and for some reason the ATF doesn't feel like adapting to the 21st century.
What's the point of CLEO signatures? It used to allow local authorities to restrict NFA items from known troublemakers. Today it's outdated and the damn CLEO notification thing is a stupid vestige of it. Why the need for paper photos/prints? We now have vast, digital databases of this stuff. There's no need for paper anything when we could be using digital! I'd really like them to just use the DMV and CCW systems for this info so I don't have to keep sending it in all the time. Why does it take 6+ months for this to go through? I'd love to know just what kind of background checks are being ran and what's different from a standard NICS. I'm guessing not much and this all could be reformed to a 5 minute phone call and a typed in drivers license number. |

It's as simple as that. If you want the process to get easier to reflect our time, or get rid of it entirely, then we have to put pressure on the lawmakers. The process takes so long because the NFA branch is swamped with applications and transfer forms. You have to wait your turn. Everyone was singing the praises of the e form system when eform 1s and 4s were taking less than a month to get approved. Something us individual filers could not use. |

Whoa down you are going too FAST...........why are they going the way of the dodo bird? Check out the three links in the OP. TL;DR version - ATF will be requiring fingerprint cards and photographs for each and every Form 1 and Form 4 submission, every time, every form. You cannot file fingerprints and photographs online. Therefore, there is no further use for eForms 1 and 4, as no situation exists whereby you would be allowed to use it. eForms 1 & 4 go away permanently. eForm 3 sticks around (as does some of the other FFL only stuff). |

View Quote I fail to see why anyone who could file as an individual would file as a trust I refuse to pay an expert lawyer to set up a trust, and I'm not assigning a $25,000 gun to a piece of shit trust I made on quicken and I don't want to share my NFA stuff with anyone when I buy something as an individual, I download a form from ATF and spend 2 minutes filling it out it has simple stuff on it like my name and address and the serial number of the gun then the ATF checks the form line by line and approves it. there's no grey area, nothing that could be incorrect. even if you were a moron and fucked it all up, the ATF checks it over like the world will die if there is a period missing from the end of a sentence. but when you do a trust, it's YOUR trust. not the ATF's paperwork, it's yours. most people have never been in a lawsuit and they never have to pay a lawyer to represent them and they never work with the government so they are very casual about legal stuff and fucking around with the government But I work in heavy construction, have been in lawsuits and I work with government agencies every week. To me, downloading some piece of shit off the internet and then using it to make an NFA trust is crazy any kind of ambiguity or error could result in $1000s of legal bills and years of dicking back and forth with the ATF government employees have to cover their ass they do this by following rules to the letter but a lot of times they don't understand the rules and a lot of times the rules are self-contradictory, or outdated, or vague so you end up arguing with someone who doesn't know anything, doesn't care and won't budge because they are afraid of getting in trouble. if your trust is wrong, or just maybe the ATF guy just thinks it's wrong, YOU WILL NEVER WIN arguing with the government is like arguing with the computer on Logan's Run To summarize, unless a trust is written by an expert, I would not use it. If you want to use some gun shop trust, be my guest. Also, most of the "benefits" of using a trust are either imaginary or not of any use to me. |

41F sucks but it's not the end of the world. CLEO signature would have been the real deal breaker for me.
Question though. I'm not familiar with the finger printing and photo requirements whatsoever. Is this something that a dealer could theoretically set themselves up to do at the counter or would you have to get finger printed and photographed at a government office? I have no idea what constitutes a valid photo or finger print submission. |

i understand it.... its why i have efiled 3 form 1's in the last month..... and have multiple suppressors being processed. i am also planning to efile / form 1, approx 3 more guns before july... probably another ar-15, a 10/22, and a 870 ( to build a sbs).
the changes wont make much difference as to me buying suppressors...... i assume ill just have to take a new photo, and new set of prints to the suppressor shop, when i buy a new suppressor, and they add those to my trust when they send in the paperwork. its a HUGE deal though for my form 1's.... efiling a form 1 is awesome... super easy and it takes about 10 minutes...... done. i can efile a form 1 to sbr a rifle, faster than i can drive to my sherrif dept..... ill be sad when you cant e-file anymore. but, ill probably have everything efiled i ever plan to sbr by july anyway.... i will have at LEAST 5...possibly 6 firearms sbr'd, / sbs'd by july, which is more than enough for me... only exception will be... ( a sig mpx sbr, which has to wait another year or two before i can buy one... due to a promise i made my fiancie... i have to build my house, before i buy anymore guns. ) however, i have a gun part / ammo allowance of $200 a month.... im just using it on suppressors and sbring shit... |

41f is horse shit and I'm tired of hearing from trust haters about how is such a good thing.
The only good part about 41 is that trustees can be added / removed any time you want without notifying atf. Guess how many photos / fingerprint cards are coming in with every trust? Yup, 1 of each. FBO, FEH, and FLL. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

EVERYDAY IS DOOMSDAY ON ARF GD 20 minutes if everything works out.. and theres someone around to do the prints..... and you have time off work, to get to the sheriffs office to get it done..... and you will have to get it done each time..... its annoying. vs, getting online, and hammering the entire thing out, and paying the tax and all in 10 minutes, and BOOM.. your done... just gotta wait for your stamp in a email 4 months later. kentucky passed " shall sign" on nfa items a year or two ago, so i dont / didnt have to worry about that chief leo signoff anyway...... but i really did enjoy the trust route.... efiling is awesome. but removing the chief leo signoff will make it easier for people to buy nfa... ( they could anyway with a trust of course).... but i am honestly SHOCKED.... that they are dropping hte chief leo signoff requirement... if they would have required a chief leo signoff on trusts, plus prints and photos, it would have probably killed 50% of the country from buying nfa.... however... if they removed the signoff requirement..... IMHO its got more to do with the fact they probably could not attach that to a trust for legal reasons anyway.... than it was about them being " generous" and dropping it. im super happy they didnt require trusts to have leo signoffs . |

Makes no difference to me. I don't own any NFA stuff and can't afford to. NFA doesn't cost any more than regular firearms? If I was on a tight budget I absolutely would not buy any NFA stuff I would stick to buying the basic food groups of firearms first once I had "one of everything", then maybe I'd buy a suppressor I had my first stamp at 18 years of age. Things don't get much tighter than those times.... I survived on .99 cent cheesy burritos from taco bell. |

I fail to see why anyone who could file as a trust would do so as an individual. All of my other guns are "individually owned". Why wouldn't I own NFA firearms as an individual? Estate management and allowing others to have access or possess one or more of your NFA firearms (spouse, child, etc). Assuming you would not let a prohibited person handle or have acces to "all of my other guns", the difference is that letting them have access to your individual possessed NFA devices is a crime, whereas letting them have access to your Title I guns is not. This is nonsense Nobody but the individual owner can USE the NFA weapon or suppressor. But please explain to me how this "access" thing works. Every month that goes by, this "access" thing gets more strident and more vague. You do not need to own a gun safe to have NFA stuff in your house, so how does the access thing actually work? back in the old days, using a trust for NFA was uncommon. Most people did not even know you could do it. If there was some big problem with individual ownership, you would have heard about it by now and it would be addressed in the NFA regs. So you are saying that my brother that is on my trust can not be in possession of my NFA items that are on my trust and vice a versa? LOL no, not saying anything like that |

Also, while the change might suck and be inconvenient, you can order a pack of five FD-258 fingerprint cards online for $6.
Unless the ATF is requiring the fingerprint cards be mailed in by local LEO, there is no reason why you can't file a Form 1 from the comfort of your own home without getting "the man" directly involved. |

Really, all they need to do is allow you to scan and upload the damn fingerprint card and photo. Everyone should be e-mailing the ATF and citing the Government Paperwork Elimination Act, and insisting that they allow for digital submission of these items on E-File. |

You cannot file fingerprints and photographs online. Sure you can. And we should be organizing through our national groups (hello NRA) to push its inclusion. Upload a photo? Super easy. Digitize fingerprints? You can either scan the card (what do you think the ATF is gonna do with it) or you can go to a digital fingerprint scanning device. The Government uses them a lot. Hell, I bet a lot of LGS would buy one if it meant they could charge you $10 or $20 to scan your fingerprints for Form 1s. It's 2016 people. Perhaps I should go back to what I had in the OP. You cannot attach two FD-258 cards online. At least you cannot do so today. See, this is key. I generally share your pessimism, Undefined, but there is nothing preventing online submissions from being a reality. In fact, there are folks in the industry pushing for such an option. Let's call out the issues with 41F, but words like "permanent" are a bit strong, especially when people with significant amounts of skin in the game are working to get clarification and are pushing the ATF on this very issue. |
