Title: registering multiple handguns at the same time
Post by: dirsh on June 13, 2012, 01:21:12 PM
sup guys
new to the forum and to gun ownership

A friend of mine told me that he heard that if you register more than 1 gun on the same day, you get put on some kind of watch list. Just wondering if this is true or not.

never heard of that.  I've registered 2 handguns every other month over the course of 6 months and back in 2009-2010 and they made a comment about me "being a regular there already" or something like that rofl.  I think it was just they recognize me since i was at their office so much.

I don't think so, maybe more than 10 in a day if you don't have a FFL

Here's a few ways you can get on a watch list

The dealer is required to fill out and fax a multiple handgun purchase form if you buy 2 or more handguns in a 2 week period. They usually fax a copy to ATF and one to PD. I believe this is what is the current sop for a dealer. Of course that is only if you pick both up within the 14 days from the same dealer. I could be wrong but it's been many years since I worked at a certain gun dealer.

Not reported to HPD.

Reported to the ATF is more than 1 gun is purchased within 5 business days.

So copy 2 no longer goes to the chief local law enforcement officer anymore?

The state knows already since you applied for the permit.

Part of the original Gun Walker scandal from the Bush Era and the anti-terrorist theory that they cant buy guns in large quantities.....they can go to Mexico and get them without a permit or import license.....AK47 imported from an eastern bloc country in Mexico cost $500 go figure and its full auto also....more than 8k imported last year....

interesting
is there any repercussions if my info is sent to the ATF? will I not be able to buy multiple handguns at the same time in the future? If so, i'll just space out my purchases for now. I'm planning on picking up a 9 and 22

thanks for the info speedtek

Just one more thing to feed the liberals.

"Oh we make the dealers fill out a form if the buy more than 1 !!!"

That really helps catch the bad guys.

As already posted, buying multiple weapons may raise some eyebrows, but registering isn't a problem.
When I moved here I had to register double digit number of weapons in one visit. The guys at HPD didn't blink an eye, but I felt bad for the people behind me wanting to register

Oh yeah, no black SUVs around my house.......yet...... :crazy:

Hahaha.  Ruger SP101 from a retired cop, Glock 19 from X-Ring, and Ruger Single Six & Sig Mosquito from OGC.

I hate getting multiple guns on one registration thingie, so I might register them all on different days instead of all on Monday.

I was told it was because they wanted accurate firearm registration stats.

Not sure if it's because they're lazy, but HPD doesn't always do that. They put 3 on the same registration just last week.

Same thing for me.  When I had to register 2 pistols and 1 long gun on the same day, they put one pistol on it's own permit and the second pistol and the long gun together.  Strange.

Negative.

You must have been registering rifles or shotguns.

They're not allowed to put more than 1 pistol on a registration anymore.

That makes sense.

They're not allowed to put more than 1 handgun on a registration slip.

So their watching me while the REAL TERRORIST are planning future attacks....  :geekdanc:

I bought and registered a AR15 and a Mossberg500 one time.. It was junk though cuz they put both of them on one paper...
