Hi all, I tried searching old posts and most of the links are bad. What forms do I need to send in and to whom do I send the forms? Would the Chief LEO be the sheriff or local PD?
Thanks guys.

Great question, I would be interested in learning more about this also.
I always go to the sheriff vs local PD Chief

One more vote for the Sheriff.
Depends on where you live. Good rule of thumb. Who responds to your location first? Usually in a larger town it is pd. Some smaller towns contract with the county sheriff for law enforcement.
The ATF website has the forms.
Just don't come back here and ask exactly how long it takes for them to process the application...
what is a c&r license?
http://www.atf.gov/firearms/faq/curios-relics.html
Local law does not sign off on application.
You are just required to provide a copy of the application.
I've been putting off getting a C&R for years. Just what I need, the ability to buy MORE old guns, even cheaper, and shipped right to my door with no FFL bullshit. Christ, I can't store, carry, shoot or take care of the ones I already have. If I could buy Mosins from Sarco or J&G for under $100 and have 'em shipped right here? Fuuuuucccckkkkk........
If you are really planning on getting a C&R license, I'd apply for one as soon as you can. One of these days our Representatives in D.C. would like to make it much more difficult to obtain one.
The process I followed to obtain my C&R is below. If you have need any help just shoot me a PM.
1. Order ATF form 7CR (5310.16) from the ATF distribution center http://www.atf.gov/forms/dcof/ or download it from http://www.atf.gov/forms/download/at...16-notice.html
2. Order ATF form 5330.20 Certificate of Complaince from the ATF distribution center above or download from the link above
3. Complete both forms.
4. Send the Copy 2 of the 7CR in the mail to your CLEO with a letter stating this is just for his/her reference as required by federal regulation and no action is required
5. Mail Copy 1 with a check for $30 and the Certificate of Compliance to the address on the form
6. Receive Type 03 C&R FFL in 6 -8 weeks
Best link I've found on how to do it.

Thanks guys for the help. I applied Oct 29 and was approved Nov. 15th, mailed on Nov. 16. Still waiting on the license but the big packet came on Monday.
Send Midway and Brownelle's a copy and get dealer pricing.
I am going to file mine this week. Thanks for the links!
Here are a couple really good links on how to obtain your C&R

Interestingly, C&R guns are excluded from the ban on sales of private firearms bill in Colorado at its current draft.
Quick question, for copy 2 do you have to fill it out by pen? I cannot seem to fill it out digitally.
http://www.atf.gov/forms/firearms/ link for forms directly from ATF...
5310.16 and 5330.20
When I downloaded the form from ATF, saved it and enabled editing (upper right corner i believe)...I just had to fill in the top part of 5310.16 name/address/etc..and it automatically filled in the 2nd area that you have to send to your Chief LEO.
I think I also tried typing it in and it was blank. You might just start over, make sure you don't tab into that area or click in that area and it should fill it out..save it and print off. Hopefully that helps you, if not maybe someone else has an idea.
Just don't click to the forms from other peoples websites..sometimes they are linked to older copies of the forms..there is even a warning on ATF about them getting older forms in, then it just prolongs the process.
Got my C&R FFL in the mail on the 19th March. I sent it in around the 15th of Feb.
Has anyone ever dealt with J&G sales in person? Will they sell C&R in person? I've dealt with them before but I was an AZ resident then. I will hopefully be out that way in June.
Damn Congrats!
For some reason I still haven't heard anything on mine yet, I'm not worried about getting declined I just want my discounts now!!!!!!!
OK, I sent my forms to the ATF yesterday and I have the copy 2 ones in a folder. Do I drop them off at Arapahoe County Sheriff today or do I wait until I get my license in the mail?
Just mail to the sheriff with a cover letter that quotes the instructions...something like: "Please find enclosed Form X, notifying you of my application to BATFE to obtain a C&R".
Go to http://www.garandgear.com/index.php?...&id=94:car-ffl
at the bottom is a generic cover letter to the sheriff to accompany copy 2. Just input the info that needs to be in it like names/addresses and send it to them in the mail. I sent it at the same time as I sent the copy 1 to the ATF
Go to a Class III dealer and he will walk you through it.
Got mine in the mail today. Gonna fax it tomorrow to a couple of places.
