I think I am at the point where I would like to divest myself of an NFA item. I have never actually done this as normally I just give it to a family member on the trust but given the amount I've already passed out to family already I want to sell this one. I am looking for the best way to sell a Form 1 SBR. For those that have done so did you just deregister the item by sending a letter to the appropriate ATF branch, or did you sell to a local shop and do a transfer through them to a buyer? I am looking for the easiest way to accomplish this while not taking it in the 4th POC. Preliminary search shows that it could take up to three months to deregister. I am curious if that is accurate, or if there is anything I should be aware of in selling it to or through a local shop. Thanks for any help PF.
