    Do you still have to register a c&r pistol with MSP? If so, as I don't have a CPL do I need a purchase permit?

    Interesting that you ask. I did a lot of research on this a few months ago. What it boils down to is no, you don’t need a permit to purchase or to register. I believe that I checked the state law and it did not indicate this was required. I believe the process is the same as for any FFL. An 01FFL just has to log the item in to their bound book and maintain “ownership” until such time as the sell it. Of course, there are other processes that come into play if, for example, the item is stolen or comes up missing. At the time I did my research, I was also a little concerned since I have acquired a number of C&R pistols in the last year.

    Do you have to do anything with your personal firearms (as far as documentation) if you get the C&R?

    I was told ( on the internet, so take it for what it's worth) that if you are going to sell a personal C & R item, you should log it into your book first and then log it out for the sale.
    No clause in the constitution could by any rule of construction be conceived to give congress a power to disarm the people. Such a flagitious attempt could only be made under some general pretence by a state legislature. But if in any blind pursuit of inordinate power, either should attempt it, this amendment may be appealed to as a restraint on both.

    If you have purchased a C&R qualifying firearm with your valid C&R License, that fire is logged in your bound book.

    I read it 4 times. Still don't see the answer to my question. What am I missing?

    If I have C&R items, and get a C&R license, do I have to document my personal firearms?

    Disclaimer- I've never had an FFL of any kind, and haven't done extensive research into it.

    That said, I've NEVER heard of ANY requirements that would see you mixing privately owned, pre license firearms into your FFL bound book. As a matter of fact, it would seem to be counter to the intent of the bound book, since they were never in anyway associated with the license in question... and that is the entire purpose of the bound book; to log and track all firearms which are associated with the FFL.

    You don’t have to log in your current C&R’s but I believe if you sell one of your current c&r’s that you owned previously you must log it. You could always play it safe and log your items in as previously acquired... Why don’t you just go to the atf website and read it for yourself??? I would not take anyone’s “word” when it could be your butt on the line.. especially when there is a detailed guideline on their webpage.
