| How do I transfer long guns (non AW) from my personal ownership into my trust? Do I need to do a DPS3 & DPS67 or just fill out an assignment sheet? |

I believe a bill of sale will suffice. Get it done before 4/1/14 and you should be all set. What is the significance of that date? I thought my trust lawer stated that all long guns transactions into a trust do not require DPS3 and DPS67 paperwork, or authorization numbers, until after 4-1-14, according to the law passed last april. Im trying to check that, before i make a mistake, and before I waste the lawers time on a phone call.. I want to check, because we need to do those forms and get a number for private sale guns. |

Long gun certificate (or Pistol Permit/EC) required for all long gun transactions after 4/1/14. Right now you could do a 14-day wait for a long gun without those, but you wouldn't be able to buy ammo or magazines  .

Quoted:
And I believe long guns can still be transferred "cash and carry" style up until 4/1/14 No, you need an AUTH # from DPS Section 1. Section 29-37a of the general statutes is repealed and the following is substituted in lieu thereof (Effective from passage): <snip> d) No person, firm or corporation may sell, deliver or otherwise transfer, at retail, any long gun to any person unless such person makes application on a form prescribed and furnished by the Commissioner of Emergency Services and Public Protection, which shall be filed and retained by the transferor for at least twenty years or, if the transferor is a federally licensed firearm dealer, attached by the transferor to the federal sale or transfer document and filed and retained by the transferor for at least twenty years or until such transferor goes out of business. Such application shall be available for inspection during normal business hours by law enforcement officials. No such sale, delivery or other transfer of any long gun shall be made until the person, firm or corporation making such sale, delivery or transfer has ensured that such application has been completed properly and has obtained an authorization number from the Commissioner of Emergency Services and Public Protection for such sale, delivery or transfer. The Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection shall make every effort, including performing the national instant criminal background check, to determine if the applicant is eligible to receive such long gun. If it is determined that the applicant is ineligible to receive such long gun, the Commissioner of Emergency Services and Public Protection shall immediately notify the person, firm or corporation to whom such application was made and no such long gun shall be sold, delivered or otherwise transferred to such applicant by such person, firm or corporation. When any long gun is delivered in connection with any sale or purchase, such long gun shall be enclosed in a package, the paper or wrapping of which shall be securely fastened, and no such long gun when delivered on any sale or purchase shall be loaded or contain any gunpowder or other explosive or any bullet, ball or shell. |

Sorry to dig up an older thread, but rather than start a new one... (at least I did a search for this)
I want a couple of suppressors. I want one for my .22 and another to swap between my two ARs (5.56 and 300 Blackout) Being in Newtown for now, the police chief WILL say no, so that means going through a trust. Has that time come and gone? Or was that just to transfer long guns and "assault weapons"? ETA... Yeah, I know I'm looking at a full year for this. But it's still possible to do, if you move in the middle of it, right? Nothing's in the works as of yet, but we talk about "the move" every day lately. So far, it's just talk. |

Holy shit, here we go again. Guess what, you're fucked. We're all fucked. This state is beyond fucked.
Yes, the letter of the law says that to transfer a firearm you need to get an authorization number and file a DPS-3. Of course that included a trust because it is a legal entity. No, the state's system does not support transferring a firearm to a trust and DESPP will not give you an authorization number. They will tell you to just do it, transfer it anway. I wish I were kidding. Someone please let us know if you have been able to get an authorization number for a transfer to a trust. I was told three different stories by people at DESPP and ultimately they would not give me an authorization number and told me to transfer the firearm to my trust anyway. I shit you not! |

Cans aren't even firearms under CT law, so you can use a trust to buy them if you want. As far as the firearms go, you apparently already own them so why would you need a trust for them? Moving in the middle of a transfer isn't a problem if you are staying in the same state. If you move out of state before the transfer is completed, you have to void it and start over again. A dealer cannot transfer an NFA device to someone who is not a resident of the state he is licensed in. |
