If I were to purchase 2 suppressors and an SBR from the same dealer––do I have to submit 2 finger print cards with each Form 4, or will BATFE process the forms together with 1 set (in other words––2) finger print cards? I thought it was one set per Form 4––so 3 Form 4s mean 6 finger print cards, but my local LEO says he thinks I only need 1 set of 2––that covers the background check.
Can anyone answer this? Otherwise, I'll call BATFE tomorrow. Thanks |
| I recently sent in 3 form 4s at the same time and I called the BATFE and asked that exact question. They told me you "should" send a complete set of paperwork, including two fingerprint cards, with each application in case they want to split up your forms between different examiners due to workloads. I thought it was ridiculous but complied. I have heard that it has worked before with only one set but why take the chance. I even sent 3 separate checks too. With as busy as they are right now and are only getting busier, they last thing I wanted to do is do anything that could possibly slow them down anymore. I'd like to get my cans back before the new Prez gets in. |

Thanks––I figured on erring on the side of caution, and plan to send 2 cards with each application, a seperate check, etc.
BATFE said, in theory, only 1 set is needed, but.....The check will probably be done by difference people. So I might get everything done––or I might get a notice saying I need to send fingerprint cards. Ah, the .gov....
