If you are considering registering your pistol with a brace as an SBR under the 120 day tax exempt period you may want to make sure your ducks are in a row.

I was notified by my gun trust attorney (Jim Willi) to make sure to have notarized proof that you owned the pistol with the brace prior to the ruling being entered into the Federal Registry. Mine were already on my Exhibit A, with my other firearms, and a part of my trust for a couple of years. Mr. Willi suggested sending in an individual, notarized, Exhibit A for each pistol you might register as an SBR. I am assuming this is to keep all the other firearms in the trust out of ATF's sight.

He also stated the manufacturer's marking would suffice and you would not have to get it engraved with the trust's name, etc.

As of this weekend, the ruling has not entered the Federal Registry. It very well could be tomorrow, there's no way to know until it shows up on the Federal Registry site. I'm getting the individual Exhibit As notarized tomorrow. If it's too late then I still have the one from a couple of years ago. I may have to ask Mr. Willi if a redacted Exhibit A would be accepted.

Time is of the essence it seems.

I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice. Just passing on information that might be useful. Consult your legal advisor.

When does it get entered into the Federal Registry? Or has it already? When does/did the clock start ticking?

I am most certain I'm going to need some help figuring all this out.
