Discontinuation of FFL question

That would be the one box that UPS doesn't destroy . . .

Print out an official looking label that says
“Epstein client list” and affix to the box.

It will never be seen again

I held off until you got a legit answer. But now I'll say what many others are also thinking.

Honestly they "should" be sent through a shredder. But that's a different conversion...

I already suggested that.

I know this is not the right answer, but they should be destroyed by the FFL, which they cannot by law.
When one fills out a 4473, the record of that transaction is supposed to be destroyed by the government. RIIIIIIIIIIGHT. If anyone believes that they are fools.
These records will go into a data base when turned in.

They ABSOLUTELY, 100% destroy every record they receive per the letter of the law…. Of course, that’s right after they scan every page and enter the info into a massive database. But no worries, that database isn’t a registration, it’s just for historical purposes.

Storage area fires do unfortunately happen from time to time.

Just saturate the paper in a little mildly acidic solution and they will dissolve a few weeks later.

When I let my license laps, I did not mail them any thing. All my books and 4473 were stored in a storage building, which got destroyed in a storm. Never heard anything from ATF.

Could always spray them with liquid ass before closing up the box and sending them in.
The gift that keeps giving!

Sardine oil.

Anyone remember when they found all the 4473’s from Fred Baker’s Outdoor America Store. IIRC, they were found in cardboard boxes(deteriorating) in a shed/building behind the store. At the time, they said that they didn’t think any customer information had been compromised.
