Basically that some guns imported as pre-86 dealer samples were deemed by the ATF to be transferable. That means a chunk of samples are now added to supply, and holders of those (previous samples) now have something worth considerably more as a transferable.i’ve been off the forms for almost 3 years and haven’t been paying attention to title twos, what does this mean ? Thanks.
Hand written letter withWhat wording/format (hand written letter or email) and address did you have to use to get that reply from the AFT?
I sent in a request months ago and got nothing but crickets back.

Asking whether or not my pre-may had been reclassified as transferable.
Took a pic of the letter and my ffl and attached them to an email and sent it to nfafax@atf.gov 5/11/24. Received a written response in my usps mailbox about 5 months later.

FFLs with Pre-May guns are going to make more money, and dumb collectors are going to lose a lot when this gets overturned.
"if this ruling gets rolled back"Why would "collectors" lose?
I have to assume you're talking about individuals (non-SOT) who buy these former samples on a form 4 as an individual.
So if this ruling gets rolled back, do you think these people (non-SOT) who are currently in possession of these previous samples will be instructed to surrender them to the feds?
Because personally, I think this would be a very unlikely scenario.
FYI-getting an FFL/SOT just to “enhance your private collection” is a quick way to get yourself into hot water with ATF….so thinking you can “get in on cheap stuff” isn’t going to go well in the end.
Making Post Samples? You have drifted pretty far from the original line of discussion.Well getting an FFL/SOT and only doing it to make post samples as play toys ...
Agree to disagree given your comment was:
“Much better option is to pay $150 for FFL/07, and $500 for SOT/02 ($650), and buy an actual pre-sample which you can then keep after giving up your SOT/FFL.”
Which is literally telling someone to get an FFL/SOT to buy pre samples so they can keep them. Pretty much saying “pay $650 and buy up stuff you can keep” that’s literally enhancing one’s collection and those are your words I quoted….also it’s funny you neglected to add the part where I said about buying pre samples to keep/not sell. Selective reading and quoting to fit your own narrative much?
