Action
Notice of proposed rulemaking
Purpose
ATF proposes amending its regulations implementing a statutory exemption and a statutory authority to grant relief from certain National Firearms Act requirements to better distinguish between them. ATF also proposes to amend manufacturer registration requirements to include a provision granting relief to manufacturers from registering firearms they manufacture for the U.S. Government (‘‘USG’’). In conjunction with this, ATF is proposing a new provision permitting manufacturers to register such firearms ‘‘late’’—after the existing regulatory window for registering manufactured firearms—if they fall out of USG contract.
