Application for Registration of Firearms Acquired by Certain Government Entities (ATF Form 10 (5310.10) (OMB Number 1140-0016)

The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 requires agencies to publish proposed information collections in the Federal Register for public comment before an agency can use the process (generally a form) to collect information from the public. As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act, this notice provides 30 days for public comment on the extension without change of a currently approved collection. The proposed information collection pertains to the use of the Application for Registration of Firearms Acquired by Certain Governmental Entities-ATF Form 10 (5320.10) by State and local government agencies to register an otherwise unregistrable National Firearms Act (NFA) firearm. The Form 10 registration allows State and local agencies to comply with the NFA and retain and use firearms that would otherwise have to be destroyed.
