I was talking with a friend of mine the other day about class III firearms and came up with a scenerio that I didn't know the answer to....
If someone had a class III firearm that was pre-'89.....or even pre-'34, but NOT registered, is there a way to get it registered so you can own it legally?
We were wondering if a person could take a firearm where someone's great-grandaddy didn't want the feds to know he had it, but it was still around, and register it to make it legal. We were thinking there should be a way, guessing the BATF would rather know of the gun and its whereabouts than to not know about it. If not, it forces the owner to want to keep it in hiding. Plus, being able to register it, the person/family could still keep the firearm without running the risk of being jailed for owning it.
So, anyone know?
