My FFL stated to me if I buy any more handguns this month he has to submit special paperwork to the ATF/FBI. Is he pulling my leg? If not, what special paperwork is there? Thanks. |
Do they do background checks in Texas? If so, they already know about your purchases.

Negative. Buying more than TWO hundguns in a 5 day period requires the FFL send out a multiple disposition form to the ATF before the close of business, and one copy to the local LEO's. |
Today is Feb 26 there are only two days left in the month. He's not pulling your leg if you bought your last one very recently.

WTF is the point of this? Seems stupid IMO, well wait most gun laws are pretty stupid! |
Correct. Those who know of this law know it is easily avoided. I did, however, see a guy at Oshman's a week before Cristmas buy 6 handguns at once, and then got a confused look on his face when they told him there was an extra form. I filled him in before he went off a real rant. |
