The regulations implement the provisions of Public Law 103-322 by restricting the manufacture, transfer,and possession of certain semiautomatic assault weapons and large capacity ammunition feeding devices. The provisions are no longer in effect however ATF requires that any records pertaining to the sale or transfer of semiautomatic assault weapons must still be retained for a period of 5 years as prescribed in the regulations.
A program change is due to the fact that the provisions of the Federal firearms laws (PL 103-322) covering semiautomatic assault weapons and large capacity ammunition feeding devices are no longer in effect. However the regulations require licensees to retain documentation for a certain period of time. The number of respondents has decreased as well as a reduction in burden hours. Please note no form is associate with this collection as it is strictly a recordkeeping requirement.
