Legal
Requirements to Own: Machineguns, Silencers, & Short Barrel Shotguns
Machineguns, Silencers, Short-barrel
Shotguns, & other items controlled by the National Firearms Act ("NFA
items") are COMPLETELY LEGAL to own according to Federal law (check "State
NFA Restrictions" above). The following rules apply.
• NFA Application
Process: Any "person" with a clean record can
purchase a silencer, short-barrel shotgun, pre-1986 fully automatic machinegun,
or other "NFA Item". The term “person”means a partnership,
company, association, trust,
estate, or corporation, as well as a natural person. To apply, you must
submit the following items:
1. ATF Form 4 "Application
for Tax Paid Transfer and Registration of Firearm" (in
duplicate), with:
a. Passport photo attached to the back of the Form 4
(You can get passport photos at almost any drugstore
for around $10.00).
b. The signature of your local Chief Law Enforcement
Officer (CLEO) to indicate that he has:
•• "no
information indicating that the transferee will use the firearm or device described
on
this application for other than lawful purposes", and:
••"no
information that the receipt or possession of the firearm or device...would place
the
transferee in violation of State or local law".
NOTE:
The instructions on the Form 4 say that a "CLEO" signature can
be from:
•••the
Chief of Police for the transferee's city or town of residence
•••the
Sheriff for the transferee's county of residence
•••the
Head of the State Police for the transferee's State of residence
•••a
State or local district attorney or prosecutor having jurisdiction in the transferee's
area
of residence
•••or
another person whose certification is acceptable to the Director, Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco,
Firearms and Explosives
NOTE
ALSO: the "CLEO" signature & passport photos are NOT required if
you are purchasing the NFA item as a partnership, company, association,
trust, estate, or corporation, although you still have to submit the
Form 4 (see below on how to incorporate easily).
– –Contact
us for assistance (Toll Free: 888 DRM GUNS) if you are having difficulty
obtaining the
"CLEO" signature,
or if you don't know who to contact.
2. $200 ($5 for AOW) check (Federal
Transfer and Registration tax -- one time fee).
3. For transfers
to individuals (that
are not FFLs/SOTs): Fingerprint
Cards (two) -- ATF
/ FBI FD-258LE Fingerprint Cards.
– –Your local police department or sheriff
department will usually perform the fingerprinting for you
for a nominal
fee, like $5.00 to $10.00.
NOTE:
Fingerprint Cards are NOT required if you are purchasing the NFA item as
a partnership, company, association, trust, estate, or corporation.
4. For
transfers to entities other than individuals (i.e. partnership,
company, association, trust, estate, or corporation): Articles
of Incorporation or other documentation establishing the entity
and the authority of the person signing the form on the entity's behalf.
• OBTAINING THE FORMS: We
can mail the required forms to you, or you can pick them up at our store (ATF
Form 4, and fingerprint cards). The ATF Form 4 can be downloaded online
from the ATFE, or go online to request the ATFE mail the
forms (including fingerprint cards) to you.
• HOW
TO INCORPORATE: If you choose to purchase an NFA item as
a company rather than as an individual, then a "Limited Liability
Company" (LLC) is probably the easiest way to go. To become
an LLC, you will need:
–A State LLC "Certificate of Formation".
The Texas filing fee is $300. You can quickly file online for a Texas Certificate
of Formation at: http://www.sos.state.tx.us/corp/sosda/index.shtml and:
–A
Federal "Employer Identification Number" (EIN),
regardless of whether you actually employ anyone or not. The EIN is free, and
can be obtained instantly online at: http://www.irs.gov and:
–A State "Sales
and Use Tax Permit". In Texas, these are free, and can be obtained
online at: http://www.cpa.state.tx.us/
• PAYMENT
FOR NFA ITEMS: Online payment will
be accepted for NFA controlled items so that the item can be either:
(1) Held for the customer (at our store) until the customer has submitted
to us:
– –Two completed ATF Forms 4 "Application
for Registration and Transfer of a Firearm" with CLEO signoff and passport
photo attached to each form.
– –Two completed Fingerprint Cards (ATF
/ FBI FD-258LE).
– –$200 ($5 for AOW) Transfer and Registration
Tax, payable to "ATF" (personal check or money order).
– –NOTE: After the transfer has been
approved by the ATFE (which usually takes 3 to 4 months after we forward the
above documents to the ATFE), we will call the customer to come to our store
to take possession of the NFA item.
or:
(2) Shipped to another NFA dealer in the customer's home town, or home
state (customer takes delivery of the item directly from that dealer)
– –NOTE: It will take about 3 or 4 weeks
for the ATFE to approve the "NFA Dealer-to-NFA Dealer" transfer.
– –If the customer is not a Texas resident,
and/or he will not personally take delivery of the item at our store,
then he should NOT submit NFA paperwork to us. Instead, the customer will need
to submit the NFA paperwork, listed above, and funds for the Transfer Tax directly
to the receiving NFA dealer. ATFE approval for the customer usually takes 3 to
4 months, after the customer submits the paperwork to the receiving NFA dealer.
• Who can
own an NFA item?
If you are eligible to own any conventional firearm (rifle, shotgun, handgun),
then you are also eligible to own an NFA item (silencer, machinegun, short
rifle, short shotgun, AOW, etc.), provided that there are no state laws prohibiting
such ownership. A partnership, company, association, trust,
estate, or corporation can also own NFA items.

ownership in the following states: AL, AR, AK, AZ, CO, CT, FL, GA, ID, IN, KY,
LA, ME, MD, MS, MT, NE, NV, NH, NM, NC, ND, OH, OK, OR, PA, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT,
VA, WA, WV, WI, and WY. Additionally, silencers maybe owned by Class
3 dealers and Class 2 manufacturers (but not individuals) in: CA, IA, KS, MA,
MO, and MI. For state restrictions on ALL types of NFA items, click on the link

version at: http://www.atf.treas.gov/firearms/statelaws/26thedition/index.htm
–The back of the ATF Form 4 gives questions which define all the
Federal requirements for ownership of all NFA items. To be eligible, you must
be able to answer NO to each of the following questions.
– –Are you:
a. Charged by information or under indictment in any
court for a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year?

conditions?
c. Been adjudicated mentally defective or been committed
to a mental institution?
d. Renounced your United States citizenship?
e. Been convicted in any court of a misdemeanor crime

• We will sell NFA Items,
conventional firearms, ammunition, and other restricted merchandise ONLY
to qualified purchasers in accordance with Local, State, and Federal laws,
including the National Firearms Act (NFA) of 1934, the Gun Control Act of
1968, the Firearm Owners' Protection Act of 1986, the Brady Bill of 1993,
and all other laws and published rules of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms, and Explosives (ATFE).
• Common reasons
to own an NFA item:
–Silencers:
– –To protect your own hearing when
target shooting / sport shooting.
– –To be a good neighbor / i.e. to avoid
annoying or startling your neighbors with loud noise when target shooting / sport
shooting.
– –Gun Collection (this is a good "reason" to
put on the ATF Form 4).
–Other NFA Items (machineguns, short rifles, short shotguns,
AOWs, etc.):
– –Historical interest.
– –Hobby / recreation.
– –Gun Collection (this is a good "reason" to
put on the ATF Form 4).
• Definitions:
The National Firearms Act of 1934 (NFA) regulates the sale and ownership of
NFA Items such as:
– –Silencers / suppressors:
Any device designed to reduce the discharge sound of a firearm.
– –Machineguns: Any
firearm that discharges 2 or more rounds with a single pull of the trigger.
– –Short-Barrel Rifles (SBR):
A shoulder fired, rifled bore firearm with a barrel length of less than 16" or
an overall length of less than 26". In measuring barrel length you do it
from the closed breech to the muzzle. To measure overall length, do so along "the
distance between the extreme ends of the weapon measured along a line parallel
to the center line of the bore." On a folding stock weapon you measure with
the stock extended, provided the stock is not readily detachable, and the weapon
is meant to be fired from the shoulder.
– –Short-Barrel Shotguns (SBS):
A shoulder fired, smooth bore firearm with a barrel of less than 18" or
an overall length of less than 26".
– –"Any Other Weapon" (AOW):
Devices that are:
•• "Gagdet
guns" that are not defined as "pistols" or "revolvers" and
can be disguised or easily hidden, such as pen guns, cane guns, etc.
•• Short-barrel
shotguns designed with a "Pistol Grip": i.e. barrel less than
18", and the gun was not designed with a
shoulder stock and has never had a shoulder stock installed.
•• "Combination" shoulder-fired
guns with both rifled and smooth barrels between 12" and 18" long,
and which has to be manually reloaded. Examples of this include the H&R Handy-Gun,
or Ithaca Auto-Burglar gun.
•• Handguns
with more than one hand grip at an angle to the bore (excluding machineguns).
•• "Wallet" holsters
for small guns, from which the gun can be fired, and which disguise the outline
of the gun.
– –"Destructive Devices" (DD): Weapons that
are defined as:
••Firearms
over .50 caliber bore diameter (excluding "Antique" pre-1898
weapons & replicas thereof, and excluding any muzzle-loading weapon). Generally
a large bore device for which no anti-personnel ammo has ever been made will
NOT be a DD. This used to be true of the 37mm guns. However, according to ATF,
some folks have started making anti-personnel rounds for these guns, and ATF
has ruled that possession of a 37mm launcher and a bean bag or rubber
shot or similar round is possession of a DD, and at that point the launcher needs
to be registered.
•• Explosive,
Incendiary or Poison Gas bombs, grenades, rockets, missles, mines, or similar
device designed as Weapons (excludes signaling devices, pyrotechnics
/ fireworks, and line throwing, safety or similar device).
