Hello,
I have a mini Uzi that was bought as a pre sample.
I ordered a FOIA on it.
Form 2 comes back dated 5/19/1986, same day as ban, was imported and cleared customs before that.
The date of manufacture or reactivation is blocked out. (This would show when released from customs)
On the form it is hand written Sales Sample Only.
However there is a Restriced Registration stamp on form, possession limited to continued compliance with provisions of public law 99-308.
Can anyone share any insight into this?
Discontinuance of business. Since section 922(o), Title 18, U.S.C., makes it unlawful to transfer or possess a machine gun except as provided in the law, any qualified manufacturer, importer, or dealer intending to discontinue business shall, prior to going out of business, transfer in compliance with the provisions of this part any machine gun manufactured or imported after May 19, 1986, to a Federal, State or local governmental entity, qualified manufacturer, qualified importer, or, subject to the provisions of paragraph (d) of this section, dealer qualified to possess such, machine gun.
