Posted 25 Nov 2020 After 20 years of keeping flawless records, I accidentally let my FFL expire. Since I don't use my FFL much anymore, rather than renew, I've just decided to give up my license. I transferred all my inventory to my personal possession; however, I had one post-sample machine gun that I had to sign over to my local police department (I have a good relationship with them). My question is this: If I sell the machine gun to another SOT FFL dealer, will they need to provide a demo letter, or is a demo letter not necessary because the firearm came from a dealer who forfeited his FFL?

Posted 25 Nov 2020 If you're giving up your FFl you can sell to a 07 without a letter. but if you "signed over" the gun to the PD, its not yours to sell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 25 Nov 2020 Here is a related question on this thread. Can a 01-03 SOT transfer a no letter Post sample from a dealer going out of business? Thanks Ken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 25 Nov 2020 Since you transferred it to a PD, I'm assuming you did it on a tax free form 5? In which case, if the PD transfers it for you, it's a tax free form 5 going to the new owner. That being said, a very famous class 3 guy went to prison for doing such a thing to avoid paying the $200 on several items. The purchaser will have to have Law Letter.
