If an individual is changing his or her state of residence and the individuals application to transport the NFA firearm cannot be approved, what options does a lawful possessor have?
NFA firearms may be left in a safe deposit box in his or her former state of residence. Also, the firearm could be left or stored in the former state of residence at the house of a friend or relative in a locked room or container to which only the registered owner has a key. The friend or relative should be supplied with a copy of the registration forms and a letter from the owner authorizing storage of the firearm at that location. The NFA Branch must be notified of the location at which the firearms are stored. The firearms may also be transferred under the procedures referred to in Question M15 or abandoned to ATF.
