Electronic Form 1 and Electronic Form 3

What Is An Electronic Form 1?

If you are building your own short-barreled rifle or shotgun or converting your brace weapon to an SBR/SBS, you will utilize the ATF eForm 1. The ATF eForm 1 allows you to create your own NFA item after approval. Keep in mind that on the eForm 1 application, the serial number you will be engraving must be listed in box 4H. Your serial number must also include a letter and a number. No special characters are allowed.

What Is An Electronic Form 3?

The purpose of a Form 3 is to transfer NFA items from one SOT to another SOT. Note: This is not an aspect that involves the consumer. Example: If you make a purchase on silencershop.com, that dealer will do an eForm 3 to transfer your item to your local FFL dealer that you selected. You will not have any direct involvement.

Note: An ATF eForm 3 is related to an eForm 4 because eForm 3 must be completed prior to an eForm 4 being filed. The receiving FFL/SOT must formally acquire the NFA item. Once acquired, the eForm 4 will be submitted.
