Stephen GutowskiHOST
And, and Mr. Leiter, the, you know, are there any, any sort of legal technicalities that, that we should know about along those lines? Or is that, you know, is that a pretty straightforward way of, uh, describing what this guidance is?
R
7:52Robert LeiderGUEST
Uh, it's a straightforward way of describing what the guidance is, but there are always legal technicalities behind it.
R
7:59Robert LeiderGUEST
Uh, so one of the technicalities will be that, uh, dealers still have to be special occupational taxpayers to deal in all NFA firearms, including these, and that's because Congress did not repeal the business taxes.
R
8:17Robert LeiderGUEST
So from the retail consumer side, that means you can't walk into any gun store and purchase.
R
8:21Robert LeiderGUEST
Even if you're purchasing on a 4473, it'll have to be an FFL who is also an SOT.

Stephen GutowskiHOST
Do people have to figure that out on their own, or is it gonna be, you, you have a guide in there, or like, a note in there on which states are gonna still require this in your, in the ATF's view?
