Just as an FYI... It would appear that the eForms portrayal of users' NFA inventory is quite likely dropping hyphens/dashes that are part of serial numbers. Approved eForms have these special characters deleted in the serial number box. This apparently programatic deletion of data would appear to be in direct conflict with ATF's direction that all special characters, including hyphens, be recorded as part of the serial number to facilitate tracing. "Symbols, numbers, and/or letters found in firearm serial numbers often identify model designations and date of manufacture and may include other coded manufacturer data and are often very important to a successful trace of a crime gun."
