What is the Eagle County Sheriffs Office role in the approval of my Federal Firearms License?
Once you submit your application the Eagle County Sheriffs Office will run a criminal history and local contact background check on the applicant. We process the proper paperwork associated with your application and background. The background and application are reviewed and at this time approved and signed by the sheriff or denied and returned to the applicant. Once the application is complete with the Sheriffs approval you are responsible to mail these applications to the appropriate address in order to have your application reviewed and finalized by that agency. Federal Firearms Licenses applications need to be mailed to; The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives P.O.
