How to make a correction on a returned Form1 UPDATE

Post by L1A1Rocker »

One of my Form 1s came back yesterday. I made a booboo on section 4a where you list the Manufacture. I put my name, I was supposed to put the Trust Name. What's the best way to make the correction? I'm thinking a single line through my name and then print the correct name beside it, and then initial.

What's the expert opinion on this please?

Single line out, initial and write the correct data above/below it in the box.

Hey Bender-- if submitting a Form 1 for a SBR made out of a Seekins Precision lower that is marked MULTI, would Box 4a have "Seekins Precision, Lewiston, Idaho" in it? If so, would box 4h have "John Doe Trust, Anytown, ND, 300BLK" in it?

Got another one back today and guess what. . . you not going to believe this. They didn't catch the wrong name like the other one, no; this one is kicked back because I didn't put a MODEL number. Anyone ever hear of that???

So, I'm just going to stick something in the box for 'model'. I'm thinking something cool like "Zombie Slayer". (ok I'm joking about that but what if. . .)

So the bid question is, do I go ahead and fix the name issue in 4a that they didn't catch, or leave well enough alone so as not to confuse the person working the application?

Has to have a model.....its why there is a blank for it ya know. :wink:

Remember whatever MODEL you declare it to be must be engraved on your NFA goodie.....be smart about the name.

I would fix the part they didn't catch as well.....you don't want to get it back AGAIN in another 4 weeks to get it corrected.......if its wrong and you know it is wrong it needs to be fixed. Just put a note in there explaining it and it will eliminate confusion.

These two are for silencers, I've got a third in for an SBR.

That IS very strange. There is a cardinal rule that you never, ever, EVER, white out anything on a legal document. You want to see the incorrect thing (single line only) so that it does not appear that you are hiding anything.

I've never put a model number. In fact, the Form 1 I corrected referenced in the OP has a note from the examiner asking if I wanted to designate a model number, but no note that lack of was an error. I've got 4 Form 1 silencers, none had a model number. Of course 3 of those don't have a length either. Could this be something new like the length needing to be there?

Most of the time if there isn't a model entered they will leave it as N/A in the system. It is still a field that has to be filled out regardless.


The length of a suppressor has ALWAYS been a requirement.

If you put N/A in the model number box of your form 1, would you then have to engrave "N/A" on the firearm?

Legally yes, as that is the model......have I seen it NOT done, yes. Have I seen N/A on a silencer? Yes.

Not strange at all, and done all the time as well.

I prefer the single line out as I think it looks cleaner but white out is acceptable on legal documents.

Question: if you get a correction letter. Do they list all needed corrections or will the kick it back after one is fixed and another is found at a later time? In other words do they look for and mark all corrections at one time so it doesn't have to be corrected a second or third time?

They list all they catch, if they get it back and review it again and find they missed something then they will issue another correction letter.
