no prob. You are technically correct of course.

But now that we know you're a perfectionist... I'll have to start calling magazines, "clips" ;-)

O, you just had to go there..... :twisted: :smile:

NFA Terminology
Title 1 firearms are not NFA firearms.
Title 2 firearms are NFA firearms.
The BATFE define classes of 'Special Occupational Tax' (SOT) as delineated by TITLE 26 > Subtitle E > CHAPTER 53 > Subchapter A > PART I > § 5801.

Class 1 SOT allows one to import NFA items
Class 2 SOT allows one to manufacture NFA items
Class 3 SOT allows one to deal (buy/sell) NFA items
what doesnt sound right?

i know what you mean by "class III", and so does most everyone else. but i'm a perfectionist who doesnt know how to keep his mouth shut :smile:, hence the reason for the original comment.

just to straiten this out...

there is no such thing as a "class III FFL". there is a Type 03 FFL (C&R), but it has nothing to do with NFA weapons. the FFL license needed to sell NFA weapons is a Type 01. on the ATF's website, NFA weapons are covered under the description of the Type 01 FFL. here is a link to the ATF's website - http://www.atf.gov/firearms/nlc/ffl/ffl_types.htm

the "class III" acctually refers to a Class III SOT tax stamp, which is what you pay the $200 for, so NFA items are commonly known as Class III.

i dont care which you choose to call it; i'm just a perfectionist who cant keep his mouth shut... so i have to solicit the right information. :smile:


o and sory for hijacking your thread... and call Phil. :grin:

just call Phil at IZ, tell him what you want to do and he will most likely say yes.

last time i was out there, there was a guy with an M60, several M16, some chinese full autos, and even an M79.


and BTW they are called NFA weapons... not "class III".
