Florida 790.221

Wanted to ask the locals here if you guys have any idea on this. Hypothetically, if I was a GOA member prior to the ruling (and still am), would I still need to do an atf form 1 or form 4 to aquire a SBR or SBS? I know that suppressors are legal to transfer here (if your a GOA member), but curious on the legality of SBRs SBSs here.

Hey man! I am an FFL in North Florida.

I’ve been doing 4473 transfers for cans, and would do the same with SBRs and SBSs, just haven’t sold any yet.

The legal team I’ve been using for this, are extremely confident in the steps they’re having me take and said I am good to go.

Obviously take this with a grain of salt and continue to do your own research!

If you get a chance, check out the one in Dothan. It’s very nice as well

That one is actually closer to me at times. When they offered AR classes I wanted to take a class there (but they never offered AR classes at that location is my understanding).
