Form 4 returned, "state permit required"

[yarbsea]

Form 4 for supressor put in problem status. For some reason they sent the entire set of form 4's back to ME, and not to the dealer (wierd). The ATF wants the "state permit", I was planning on faxing it - but since I got my forms back, I will have to mail it in...but here is the question:

My dealer only obtained the "louisiana application to transfer firearms" and told me to send that in. He also said that I couldn't "Register" it with the state until my form 4 comes back. SO: is this "transfer" form going to be enough to get them to approve it finally?

The "can't register it with the stage til the form 4 comes back" has to be bogus because it wouldn't work otherwise. I was able to register both of my SBS and get the form back to send it to ATF without having the form 1 back. It wouldn't work (imo) otherwise.

I just got my paperwork for a SBR and a suppressor from the state. You can send in both the application to transfer and application to register at the same time. The only thing you have to make sure of is that the application to transfer is approved before or at the same time of the application to register or they will send it (application to register) back to you.

Hmmm both of my suppressors I didn't register until after I got the form 4 approved. For the ATF I sent in the application to transfer. The process is a little different than a SBR since there is the additional step of getting the app to transfer.

You must have had a new examiner. What is the name of the examiner?

The Form 4 and Application to Transfer is all you need. Register it with the state once you get it.

 

[trey504]

Do you register with the state when using a Trust?

 

[Landry308]

Yes, just register it in the trust's name.

Got ahold of a human at the ATF...

new examiner - SARA JONES - she said over the phone that the "transfer" would be what she needs....guess i'll see...she's really easy going on the phone at least, said she'd send the form 4 approved as soon as she got my papers in.

Supressor approved oct 26th...

So bought it 25 Mar 09, approved 26 oct 09.

jezus christ that took awhile!

Congrats! Waiting on mine, I will see. Going to give them a call again.

7 months ain't bad. Better to buy several spaced a month apart so you always got one coming in.

 

[yarbsea]

Lol...waiting on my 4th stamp as I speak Got em lined up!

Lol...waiting on my 4th stamp as I speak Got em lined up!

Are you using a local dealer?

 

[yarbsea]

No dealer, all SBR's on Form 1.

But I used Diamond Gun in Monroe for my supressor, but plan on using Long Range Alley gun club south of shreveport for any of my future dealer items.

i made the same mistake the first time, the ATF called me told me the deal, I regertered it with the state, i faxed the state registration paper to the ATF...got the stamp.
