I found today my eform 1 was rejected due to no physical address. The problem is that I DO NOT truly have one as I live on a offshore island that is a state park with no physical address or utility service.
I left a telephone message explaining my problem. Of course I have to submit a new Form 1 but will not do so until the address issue is resolved. I am sure this is probably "a one of a kind problem" and  I'll get jacked around.
Any suggestions? |

How about grid coordinates and a separate mailing address? I know they accept grids for destinations on 5320.20 forms. So long as they have a way of mailing you things AND they know where you / the gun will be located, they should be OK with it... right? What would he engrave on the firearm? The regs specifically require city and state of manufacture. |

Where does your mail go? How are you posting on the Internets  All of my mail goes to the post office box where my revocable trust is addressed/based from.. I am not without services as you may think with the exception of mail and other land based utilities. The island has a generator system which feeds a battery bank through a inverter. Run on batteries for 14 hours in the PM. Have an air card through Verizon for internet, Direct TV and a cistern for water. |

A Form 1 is to make a firearm, not manufacture one. The city, state engraved by a maker is simply the location of where it was assembled. Doesn't have to be their home or work address, or match the city, state used on the Form 1 (which is simply a mailing address). Since the OP has a PO Box, that post office has a city, state that can be used. No street address required. Manufacturing is a whole different situation, with different forms, taxes and regulations. When manufacturing, you engrave the address of where the business is physically located. |
