I don't plan on having more than a couple. I have work in the morning haha
I've heard too many stories like that one to be irresponsible about that sort of thing. I have a good group of friends who will look out for me too

Glad I'm not the only one
Thanks. And hopefully one day I'll have the opportunity to buy you guys a beer

Just sent in the paperwork!
Here comes the anxiety of waiting!

 

[Mdeng]

Bear just incase you do not already have it here is a good way to set up you bound book. Just print out this form, put it in a three ring binder and log in each C&R firearm that you receive after getting you license. I was visited by the ATF a few month's ago. No big deal they were just doing a random check to make sure that I had all the paper work in order. I asked for an off site appointment and met them at the Boarders in Waldorf with my Binders. The ATF agent went through my books found one mistake (Date was in a different format than the rest of the book) and had me correct it. Nothing painful just a little stress and worry. Once it was done I found that as long as I followed the rules of the license and keep everything in order they are happy. Good luck and remember to keep the paper work up to date. Mdeng

Oh ya almost forgot make sure to number the pages and if you get to the point that you have more than one book be sure to number the books as well.

I was thinking about getting one of those NRA books that's all nicely laid out and leather-bound

Good advice Mdeng.

Punch, get prepared for your "soon to be acquired" C&R toys. Trust us though. You WILL log in more than you think...

I've been using the same format for my A&D book and it's always up to date. I recall a thread from another member who went through an ATF audit last year. He was using this form but had to rewrite his book into a more columner format while the ATF agent was with him. I'll see if I can find the thread and link it here. This may be the thread:

Mdeng, since you had an ATF "visit" and apparently your book was OK in this format, any insight on your visit could be helpful to others. BTW...thanks for your welcome on the surplus rifle forum . They are terrific folks and my Turk is coming along nicely.

Thats the Pages i use for my bound book as well.

The only problem the ATF guy had with my book was a few dates that were in a different format. mm/dd/yy dd/mm/yy etc. he had me fix them and all was well. I try to record my info in the book so that each entry looks the same. That way once they start to look things over and see where I have listed all the information they can find it each time in the same spot. I do suggest that if they come calling, make an off site appointment. I met him at the Boarders books coffee shop in Waldorf. This only works for a C&R, dealers have to let them in there place of business. I don't even like to let a repairman into my home if I can help it. Mdeng

Sounds good dude. Just a little more incentive to get one asap

 

[Mr_Wolf]

I sent mine off Monday! Can't wait.

 

[Punchabearinnamouf]

My C&R came in today! Just a little over one month waiting time. I foresee a decline in my funds in the near future
Now to get a nice bound book!

Yep, time to get broke!

And enjoy every minute of it haha

A lot of dealers accept e-mailed copies of your license. That means you can start buying guns TONIGHT.

Dude... do NOT tell me that!
I need to wait at least a week so I can start putting money back in the bank. Still recovering from the holidays.
Still good to know

 

[Threeband]

Make a dozen xeroxes of your C&R. Of course you know not to sign the original.

Sign a copy in contrasting-colored ink, and scan it into your computer. Now you can e mail it as an attachment to many dealers. SOG, I think AIM and Century. You can e-mail their customer service to ask if they accept e-mailed copies if their website is unclear about it.

Midway and Brownells I think I mailed copies to both. You get a Dealer's discount. E mail their customer service with any questions, but I recall Midway has an online dealer registration form of some sort.

Anyway, I just can't imagine a legitimate excuse for waiting a full week. You should be bankrupt well before that, certainly within 5-6 days.


For your first purchase, how about this?

Ludwig Loewe Borchardt Prototype, 30 Caliber Semi-Auto Pistol With 7 1/2" Barrel, Serial Number 27, 1903 Gun Passed Down Through The Browning Family, Gun Is In The White, Lovely Checkered Walnut Grips, Some Blued Parts Flaking, With Provenance

Check out the pictures: here's one: http://www.cherrys.com/stokpics/23023bro_4.jpg


They're only asking $50,000.00. I'll bet they'll come down a bit, though, especially if you offer cash and whine about the " Some Blued Parts Flaking". Bring it to the Frostbite Shoot, so we can all try it out. (You can thank me there.)

I am sorry I am kind of new to all of these forms what is a C&R form?
