Integrally suppressed rifles are made from what used to be "normal" Title I rifles. When they are turned into NFA items, the serial number of the original rifle is recorded in the "additional information" section and the serial number of the tube becomes the serial number "of record." So far so good.

I create three integrally suppressed semi-automatic weapons, one in .223, one in .308 and one in 9mm, out of semi auto rifles and carbines. I properly report their manufacturing to NFA Branch. Customer shows up and wants to buy all three. We fill out his Form 4's and send $600 off to Martinsburg. Six months pass and all three Form 4's come back approved and I tell the guy to come pick up his stuff. He does and he fills out the 4473 all right and proper. Still so far so good.

The question is: Since I am an FFL/SOT in Texas, do I have to fill out a multiple long arm sale report? They have become NFA items, but they are still semi-auto rifles...

The answer is: If you are selling the rifles using an 01 or 02 license (Dealer or Pawnbroker) then you would need to complete the rifle multiple sale form in Texas. If you are selling them using a Type 07 (Manufacturer), 08 (Importer), 10 (Manufacturer DD) or 11 (Importer DD) licensee then the requirement to complete the form 3310.12 does not apply. Importers and Manufacturers are exempt from the reporting requirement.
