Suppressors Moving States with Can In Jail

[metalfarm]

Called SilencerShop
Called Shop that has it
Called shop I go to often

got 3 different answers all of which sounded like “we don’t know”

Someone has been through this. How did you do it?

(TN to FL)

I also do not know for sure, but I would think you could do a form 3 transfer while you’re waiting on your form 4 to be approved. I would call the ATF ((304) 616-4500) to ask them. I’ll be keeping an on this to see what is actually done.

You can Form 3 it to a new SOT in your new state of residence but then you will have to start your Form 4 process & wait all over again.

So if I fly back you're suggesting I put this thing on an airplane or mail it back to myself?

 

[metalfarm]

Flying back seems totally ridiculous. Is there a way to cancel this thing and send it back to the buyer? Then just buy a new one and have it shipped to the new state? It's only been in jail for 2 months it would be worth it to me to not waste my time going all over hell and 1000 miles to get it.

OR would that be a paperwork nightmare?

ALSO.... how does this affect my future can buying? Do I need to wait until this thing is in my hands before buying another?

TN to FL isn’t really that far. Absent any good info to the contrary, I’m firmly in the STFU camp. Let the Form 4 get approved, go get the can.

 

[Lunchbox27]

What if I move before my ATF Form 1, ATF Form 4, or ATF Form 5 Paperwo

There are many reasons why you would move before your ATF paperwork is approved, as in some cases the ATF paperwork takes more than 7 months to be approved. But what happens if you move from the location that you used on your ATF 5320.1 Application to Make and Register a Firearm, ATF 5320.4...

This...

Form 4 gets approved, go pick up your can, then you move and submit the Form 20.

If, like my SOT, their SOT requires a 4473 and you fill it out with the old address then you are providing false information on a federal form.

From @Lunchbox27 link above, consider this route:

Moving and changing your driver's license with a pending application: If you are moving to another state with a pending ATF application and you are changing your drivers license to the new state you will need to cancel your application and reapply. You can try to talk to a ATF specialist to update the address of your application and update the SOT dealer to send the paperwork too. This route isn't guaranteed, but is worth trying before you cancel your application. Please note the below for canceling your ATF application.

• The paperwork and contents of your application might not be returned to you. Your canceled form will be sent back to your SOT dealer. But your FD-258 fingerprint cards, passport photos and the copy of your NFA Gun Trust, if applicable, will not be returned to you. If you plan on reapplying you will need to provide the ATF with another set of fingerprint cards and a passport photo for every responsible person on the ATF application. If you applied with a NFA Gun Trust you will need to send another copy of your notarized NFA Gun Trust.
• If your payment was already processed with the ATF, you will need to start the return process. It takes around one month for your application to be canceled. If you paid with a check or a credit/debit card your payment will be returned to you in 60 to 90 days after your application was canceled, which could be 90 to 120 days [factoring in the one month time to cancel your application]. If you paid with a cashiers check or a money order the ATF will send a refund check back to the applicant with the same time frames as the check and the credit/debit card payment methods.

^This above. If your Form 4 has already been approved, you will need an in-state drivers license for the state your can is located to successfully complete the 4473.

Just went through this myself in February when transferring a can as an out-of-state resident under military orders, but with an out of state drivers license. Unfortunately state police wouldn't accept, and had to go get a in-state drivers license.

Yes, your dealer can cancel the form 4 (he will have to write a letter to NFA Division). Have him do that then transfer your silencer to your new dealer in FL. Then you can start the form 4 process over. This particular silencer has no bearing on any new purchases you decide to make in FL.

I also do not know for sure, but I would think you could do a form 3 transfer while you’re waiting on your form 4 to be approved. I would call the ATF ((304) 616-4500) to ask them. I’ll be keeping an on this to see what is actually done.

That's a no-go. The only options once the form 4 is in process are to approve, deny or cancel.
