How to obtain a SBR in the land of corruption !!! (Page 9 of 22)
| It's just like a trust. It's my understanding that a trust its just a business entity. When u read the form 1 app it says...check one, and there are three boxes. One says trust or business entity. Then by Cleo signature it say read rule such and such (I can't remember). That rules states Cleo required for personal applications. There fore it isn't required for trust or business entity...I'm not a lawyer that's why I contacted and to ask... |

That contradicts everything that the ATF has said thus far (i.e. that a C&R can only be held by an individual) However, if you apply, and it is approved we have precedent that they will approve a C&R for a business, thus opening up an avenue for the Trust route in Illinois. Hell, I say go for it. The worst that happens is they don't approve it, and nothing has changed! Sven Manticore Arms |

I'm too drunk to taste this chicken.
| I know that in the beginning there were a few people that were able to get their stamps under a trust in IL before the ATF put a stop to it. Does anyone know who they were? |

I sent in my Form 1's (for two SBR builds) and am now waiting. Will the BATFE send me the tax stamp for each build? I have seen on other forums that when you file your Form 1's via efile that you get an e-mail from the BATFE with a copy of the tax stamps. Since we can't file via efile here in Illinois, was wondering what to expect? Also is there anyway to track the status of your applications with the BATFE?
Thanks, Mike |

Assuming you did everything correctly, you will receive a hard copy of your stamp in the mail. You can track your application to a certain extent by using the site linked below, but the info is only as good as the reports submitted, and (from what I understand) the speed is partially dependent on the agent that processes the application. My experience last year was about a 9-10 month wait once submitted. From what I hear, things are a little quicker now.

BATFE cashed my checks on 4/21. Looks like I'm GTG for now. Will update when I receive my stamps! |

| Are you guys still including a copy of the IL statute on SBR's with your APP? Lastly I can not remember when I did my other form 1 does the 26" minimul OAL apply to C&R or just the reenactors? |

Well i have finally started my process with a call to the local sheriff. This was an odd request to him and hasn't ever been through this process. He was unsure how it was legal and called the atf and got a response of sbrs are not legal to own in illinois being in direct violation of state law.
Has something changed and the c&r loophole been closed? |

Everytime I have searched the uuw it doesn't contain the amended text from the hb4901. Maybe he has the same issue, I'll find out tomorrow after showing the hb4901. |

I just picked up my Form 1s tonight, signed by my chief. I dropped them off last Tuesday. He had not signed one before, but I put together a nice package along with some letters of explanation, and I got an email today that they were ready to be picked up. I don't know if he called the ATF or did his own research, but he didn't have any follow up questions for me. (I'm in Dupage county)
I'm very pleasantly surprised that this turned out to essentially be a nonissue. If I can find time to get my prints taken care of this week, I'll have everything in the mail by Friday. |

Can anyone help me break down the engraving of the lower?
Not sure who to have do it, when to have them do it, etc. From what I gather, you have it engraved with your name, city, and state. You get this done, then you take your form 1 to the local LEO and have them sign off, then you send in your form 1. Do you send a picture of the engraving with your form 1? I guess Im just a little stumped on when that comes into play, etc. |

I guess Im just a little stumped on when that comes into play, etc. After you get your lower, send it off for engraving. When you get it back you send your paperwork in for approval. I don't believe you have to send a picture with your forms. Once approved, assemble your SBR and enjoy. 
Orion Arms does great work. http://www.orion-arms.com/sbr-engraving.html I'm sure there could be someplace local. Maybe someone will post a recommendation. |

I guess I'm confused about the question? I simply emailed my CLEO asking if he's been presented this before, and if he will willingly sign my Form 1 given proper documentation that C&R can possess SBR legally in IL with tax stamp approval. I have had my C&R a while now (I like old shitty war relics showing up at my door), just haven't gotten around to performing the legwork to obtain an SBR. No response yet, but it's a holiday and I emailed at 2am. I'll ultimately call them/walk in, but I'll have to wait on my Scorpion regardless to pull serial # for required information on Form 1. I may pick up another AR lower and Form 1 that as well at the same time as the EVO if he's willing to sign off, or just do the paperwork on my Honey Badger finally. Originally I bought a Spike's Honey Badger lower (now a pistol) that I had planned on Form 1ing when all this came about some time ago... The sucky part is I know my PD likes to charge like $20-25 a fingerprint card, because I needed them for my CCW. Ridiculous. |

I hope you have no problems. @proto3: I'm trying to piece together the process, so forgive me if the below is incorrect. I understand the following to be true: - you are in palatine - you are in cook county - you have a C&R - you will follow jagrmeister example and inform (not apply with) Cook County Sheriff of your form 1 - you paid a bunch of money to various entities is this all that's required for SBR success?? |
|
@sendit14
Yes, I'm in palatine, cook county. I'm waiting for my c&r to come back from the ATF (should have zero problems with that and the police chief knows I applied for one) Then once I get the c&r I'm going to email the police chief and say here is my c&r license, can you sign this form 1 so I can make an SBR? And I'll probably show him some text from the law saying we can have SBR's too. Then hopefully he says yes to signing. I know another member on here has gotten a stamp who lives in desplaines which is in cook county as well |
