Gunner Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 (edited) I have a couple of West Hurleys that I want to sell. I've had them for 20 years and I'm a little rusty on the procedures and legalities of selling NFA items. I'm sure this has been covered here before; could someone point me to a primer on this? Thanks. Edited January 22 by Gunner typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD. Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Gunner, The first thing I would do is tell us the type of West Hurley's you have - 1928 or M1A1 or both. I would also state if you purchased these two WHs new and the condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunner Posted January 23 Author Report Share Posted January 23 TD, I'm not at the point of posting them for sale here or anyplace else. I first need to understand how to go about selling them. What the law requires, what avenues might be best, etc. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deerslayer Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 If you sell instate you can do a atf form 4. You and the buyer can do this fairly easy if your not afraid of govt forms. Just google atf form 4 and look it over. Buyer has a lot more work to do than the seller. You just need to provide info and sign. If you dont want the hassel, you can find a local dealer to do paperwork (and pay him for the service). If you sell out of state it will have to go to the buyers dealer on a form 3. Pretty simple to let that dealer handle the paperwork details. You just sign the form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got Uzi Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 Had a nice talk today with Gunner and helped him out with his quest as well as gave him some options on how he can proceed when he is ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merry Ploughboy Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 As the firearms have likely accrued a significant rise in value over the time owned, I suggest that you check with a knowledgeable tax advisor to determine if and how much potential capital gains tax you are facing so you can plan accordingly. Best of luck with your sale. MHO, YMMV, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
