Common myths held about NFA
As an NFA dealer with a shop in rural Ohio, I get some of the most ignorant comments under the sun about the ownership of NFA items. On top of this, I am seeing more and more people on the errornet post things that just arent true.
So let's discuss some of the myths associated with NFA ownership. I will start some and you guys can add to them. Maybe we can form a collective list and just point noobs to it.
1. No the Govt cannot search your property if you own an NFA item. They would still need a search warrant.
2. The Govt already knows you own firearms. So no, owning an NFA item doesn't clue them in that you have weapons (put the tin foil hat away).
3. Putting NFA items in a business or trust is 100% legal and legit with the ATF!
4. The majority of the States in the Union allow NFA items.
5. Yes, NFA items are legal for you to own (as long as your State says so).
6. Yes, you have to use a C3 dealer in your State to transfer an NFA item (NEW NFA items and out of State Transfers).
