CLEO Requirement for Form 1 and Form 4 to be discontimued

For enthusiasts of NFA-controlled firearms (e.g., machine guns, short barrel rifles and shotguns, suppressors), the requirement to get the local chief of police or sheriff's approval on the required Form 1 or Form 4 has been a problem. Started at the inception of the National Firearms Act, the idea was to get the person in front of the chief or sheriff - who was expected to know the "problem children" in his or her jurisdiction - to keep wackos from getting these special weapons. In the 30s through the 70s, that was potentially appropriate: there was no national computer database available at all hours to get criminal histories.

Yes, I heard this also. For the better.... IMO.

However, look for FA prices to RISE......

Well its a "proposed" change....

seeing is believing....Its hard to imagine the current regime letting this slide....

It will be nice though....

just got through waiting 6 months on my Form 4 for a NFA trust that was established...

I guess it's bad for the trust writers as well....For those of us who utilized a lawyer's services

Sweet that will make it easier.
