MachineGunTours Posted March 20, 2025 Report Share Posted March 20, 2025 I see guys posting "This was a pre-may sample which has now been certified transferable by NFA Division" I want to know what it takes to see if your gun can qualify for a this reclassification. I'm trying to see what it takes. I have a couple of Premays that I want to know about. alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank I Posted March 21, 2025 Report Share Posted March 21, 2025 (edited) ATF calls it government use exception. Machine guns that were imported for LE use, not as dealer samples, qualify. Edited March 21, 2025 by Frank I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill in Bama Posted March 21, 2025 Report Share Posted March 21, 2025 You vanstart a Form 4 transfer via E-file and go to add firearms, click on the pre sample you want to know about, if it shows up as OK to transfer then it has been changed.
