    Default Question Regarding NFA Weapon Laws

    Need help with two questions:

    1. Father is the sole registered owner of a licensed NFA weapon. Adult son wants to take it to a range where NFA is OK to shoot (in state and close to home). Father must be present and cannot give permission for son to borrow it - correct?

    2. If son were caught by the authorities, would that not be a felony for the son?

    *I already think I know the answers - but need someone to collaborate - if you get my drift.

    #2 is incorrect. It would be felonies for both. One for father for illegal transfer, one for son for possession of an unregistered (to him).

    Correct for both. Only way around this is to transfer the item to the son or start a trust.

    Start a Trust, get both your names on it, pay the $200 transfer to the Trust, go have fun!
    You walk the path of a coward, taking shelter behind those who are unafraid to stand AND fall; counted among those who live as nothing more than dross in the eyes of your betters... Enjoy your freedom.
