| 2016-00112 | Commerce in Firearms and Ammunition-Reporting Theft or Loss of Firearms in Transit (2007R-9P) | Rule | The Department of Justice is amending the regulations of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) concerning the statutory reporting requirement for firearms that have been stolen or lost. The final rule specifies that when a Federal firearms licensee (FFL) discovers a firearm it shipped was stolen or lost in transit, the transferor/sender FFL must report the theft or loss to ATF and to the appropriate local authorities within 48 hours of discovery. The rule also reduces an FFL's reporting burden when a theft or loss involves a firearm registered under the National Firearms Act (NFA) and ensures consistent reporting to ATF's NFA Branch. In addition, the rule specifies that transferor/sender FFLs must reflect the theft or loss of a firearm as a disposition entry in their required records not later than 7 days following discovery of the theft or loss; moreover, if an FFL reported the theft or loss of a firearm and later discovers its whereabouts, the FFL must advise ATF that the firearm has been located and must re-enter the firearm into its required records as an acquisition or disposition entry as appropriate. | 2016-01-12 | 2016 | 1 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/01/12/2016-00112/commerce-in-firearms-and-ammunition-reporting-theft-or-loss-of-firearms-in-transit-2007r-9p | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-01-12/pdf/2016-00112.pdf | Justice Department; Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives Bureau | 268,19 | The Department of Justice is amending the regulations of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) concerning the statutory reporting requirement for firearms that have been stolen or lost.
