| My brother has asked to borrow my NFA registered SBR for a upcoming hunt in another state. I told him I didn't think it was allowed even if in the same state. I asked my local police department and they deferred to the ATF. I have left several voice mails over the past few weeks but have still not heard back. Can anyone definitively tell me that it IS allowed? If not I will not take the chance. Thank you in advance for your assistance. |

You really need to read up on NFA law if you are going to own NFA controlled items. The answer is NO! That would be considered an illegal transfer. The only way for you to "share" w/o being with the gun is for him to be on a trust or corporation that owns it or an employee of a FFL that owns it. I suggest you get informed about NFA law before your dog is dead and you are in prision. |

Just found this on the BATFE website under FAQ...
What can happen to someone who has an NFA firearm which is not registered to him? Violators may be fined not more than $250,000, and imprisoned not more than 10 years, or both. In addition, any vessel, vehicle or aircraft used to transport, conceal or possess an unregistered NFA firearm is subject to seizure and forfeiture, as is the weapon itself. [49 U.S.C. 781-788, 26 U.S.C. 5861 and 5872] |

It would be perfectly legal if you and your brother were conjoined twins. Are you?
If so, you will have no issues. Make sure you double check that the other state is SBR friendly. Also, remember to get your permission slip from the ATF 72 days in advance and get the $60 Transportation License (most are only valid for 7 days, so if you'll be gone longer than that, it will be $120 total for 2 weeks). You're welcome. |

poke here for SBR interstate
"FOPA 86 it the federal law that controls transport through other states. It specifies how to secure the gun during transport. Some states, notoriously NY and NJ have violated FOPA and have put people in jail. You trip must be uninterrupted. A 5320.20 gives you permission to transport interstate but does not provide any special authority to do so. If executed correctly a 5320.20 should provide proof that the gun is possessed legally in the state of origin and destination which is the primary requirement of FOPA." |

Not unless it was done on a trust, and he is on that trust. Correct Or corporation. If he was an officer or employee of the corporation that held the NFA item it would be equally legit. And even then you have a form to file with ATF to take it out of state. |

The last person to ask about federal law is a local cop. You haven't heard back from the ATF because they're probably still trying to figure out whether or not you're trolling them. The answer is OH FUCK NO. |
