Re: Tax Stamp
Good luck with filing the interstate transfer paperwork every time you want to run over to the cabin. I scheduled to attend a school out of state last year and wanted to take my suppressor. I called ATF 90 days prior to the school and asked to fax my form in for approval. I was told they will not accept that form by fax and to mail it. I mailed it and, shocker, heard nothing back. Off I went to the school sans suppressor and didn't think about it until January (school was in November) when I was at SHOT. My cell rang with a 202 area code. Hmmm... I answered and spoke to a nice lady from NFA Branch who had "some questions" about my F5320.20. As she started, I interrupted and asked her to check the dates on the form. She asked "Why?" and I said "Because I was trying to take that trip in November of LAST YEAR." She gave me the "Gee Whiz. How did that happen?" bit and then asked what I wanted her to do. I told her to just return the form. Then she wanted to know why I wanted it back. She wasn't pleased when I told her I wanted it so I could make fun of NFA Branch. I was only half-kidding. She didn't even get the half. But they did return the form and I kept it as a reminder. As far as making copies of your stamp, a small suggestion, I ordered up some Rite in the Rain paper and had my form color copied onto it in lieu of laminating. Makes a much more compact and foldable copy that will stand up to about anything you can throw at it. You can order packs of the paper on-line.
