Not Gonna Renew
Received my renewal paper for C&R and I really can't see any justification to keep it. Most of the good stuff came and went before I ever got on the bandwagon, so...

I just renewed mine , but I have to agree. Other that being able to order stuff wholesale from some distributors,there's not really much need for it anymore. C&R firearms have almost become a thing of the past.
One thing that would concern me about letting it go, is that I've had it sense 1974- 1975 and with all the rule changes over the years,, what paperwork I have now covering guns sold years ago,,may not necessarily comply with current laws ,,where as it did just a few years ago. So how will things be handled in circumstances like that if I did not renew it next trip around? ,,am I a criminal now due to law/rule changes over the years by the ATF?? Even though what was done originally in my bound book,, may no longer apply,or comply with today's laws/rules covering those guns? Will that become an issue legally , if anyone does let there FFL go???? |

I received my renewal notice a few days ago. For $30 I am going to keep it.

I've kept mine going.
Not too keen on turning my C&R book over to "them" on giving it up.

You don't have to turn over your C&R book to anyone if you don't renew your license, you can keep it if you want or just shred it and throw it away. Like RetVet said, if you decide to get a new license later you just start a new book with whatever you purchase with your new license.

heading "NOT RENEWING?": 1. Return this application and your firearms records within 39 days of discontinuance of your business to: ATF Out-Of-Business Records Center 2. I am not NOT renewing my license and will submit my records to ATF. I guess if you don't send the form back, you don't get to sign and date that statement. |

I allowed mine to expire a few years ago and with that my old bound book became history. I then applied again a year or more later and with that started a new bound book.
I just applied for renewal last week. I don't have much in my current bound book and that's the way I like it. If C&R stuff begins to flow again I'll start collecting again then reevaluate if I need to allow the license to expire again. The bottom line is I don't intend to invite the ATF to my home to review my book and collection and would rather not have to haul a lot to their office to complete an inspection. You know there is a lot more stuff out there. It's just a matter of getting the communists out of Washington again.

I honestly wish I hadn't gotten it in the first place.
