5320.20 Best Practices

[leftyk82]

from today's experience via USPS

 

when filling out form 5320.20 for interstate travel with an NFA item, in my case a SBR, your request will be disapproved if filled out like the below:

 

 

7.  Transporting to:

 

123 Name Avenue

Sometown, KY 44444 

and other surrounding areas in Kentucky

 

 

 

I had read online (mistake) that adding this would allow for legality across the entire state and that isn't the case.  

 

a 5320.20 must be filled out for EACH location within the state

I would guess that the intention is for places where you will be staying while in that state.  For me, I have one set for my parents house in KY, but I don't think if I was to be shooting on a friends property 20 miles away from there that they would bother you.  I suppose they could, but I can't imagine they can be that literal with it.  I expect it will have to do with where it is "stored" overnight.

 

I have no idea really, but this is my general feeling on the issue.  I am not going to call the NFA and ask so that it could possibly be noted on a file somewhere.  Sometimes, just play stupid.   I am pretty good at that.

I surmise you are correct, so my re-submission will only note the address i'll stay at.  hopefully if i step off that property DHS won't drop out of the sky and arrest me.

Yes, I think the intention is where the weapon will be stored in that state.  Id surmise that if you were going on a hunting trip, the hotel or lodge would be the address they want.
