That was my question to Rick: I don't find any where that you even send a copy.. Just the regulation that you must ship to a dealer.. If I send a gun to Remington, are they going to send me a copy of their FFL, I dont think so .. MDC
thats true, of course when you have an compliance inspection the ATF seeing Remington Arms in the bound book will not have the same effect as "Joes Gunshop" thats why the copy (signed in ink not longer required") of the FFL keeps them happy I suspect.
If in doubt you can call (I did one time with a Pawn Shop one just to clairify and they checked to be sure it was a real one and if there where any problems )or look on the web site to be sure with 01's (I don't think the 03 C&Rs are on line)
