re: NFA Trust and moving

The Form 4 (that you sign under penalty of perjury) specifically requires that an applicant notify the ATF of any change in address...not just an interstate change of address. Do not confuse an interstate transfer of a Class III item with a change in address. This is not provided by the NFA via statute, but is covered by the federal criminal code statute providing that it is a felony to provide false information required to be kept with the federal government relative to firearms. You can look up the cite. This means that the federal government could pursue legal action against you for not notifying them of a change of address. So, if you want to be legal, you need to notify the ATF of an address change, whether interstate or intrastate, and you need to do so via 5320.20.

You seem like one of those guys that enjoys arguing with people on the internet, and I am not, so I'll leave it at that. Maybe you misunderstood my earlier post, but I thought it was pretty clear. I will say that this is particularly frustrating, because misinformation spread over internet message boards is a major reason people remain so confused about firearms law. I'm certainly not going to fight you over your choices though. I'm sure you could take whether or not notification an actual (NFA) statutory requirement up with the government in court. I typically try to keep my clients out of court.
