Buying handguns?

[Jeffrey Lebowski]

FWIW, thanks for the info, all.
I had it incorrectly in my mind that the window was 30 days, not 5.

Now you can buy 6 in an average month!

$60 instead of $10 What can they do if you buy 3 at a time?

Nothing! Buy all you want...

Where do I begin?!?
In seriousness, I should have asked - but it did recently cause me to wait on something I just wanted on a whim. Good to know!

Never really cared, nor worried, about a dealer filling out the multiple handgun form if I bought more than one handgun. Rarely did the ATF contact me over one I did as a dealer, either...even with far more than 2 handguns reported. The only time they contacted me over a multiple sale was when I forgot something on the form...the date or something like that.

I've also bought 3 handguns in one day from different dealers. No one from the ATF apparently cared about me because they never called me.

Personally, I think the worries about multiple handgun sales (from a buyer's perspective) are way overblown.

Maybe. Or perhaps the government knows you're just a mountain hermit and nothing to worry about!

I know the original question has been answered but I just want to add that if you trip the need to do an MSR (multiple sales report), then the serial numbers for those guns *are* recorded by the ATF and are forever linked to you. It is registration.

Search the forum for "asmotao msr" for more info.
