Summary: A North Carolina resident and NFA owner supports the proposed rule to remove Chief Law Enforcement Officer (CLEO) notification requirements. The commenter argues that these requirements cause unnecessary processing delays and act as an unwarranted barrier to lawful firearms ownership.
I am a law-abiding North Carolina resident and NFA owner writing to strongly support this proposed rule. I have personally experienced delays in NFA processing due to CLEO notification requirements in my county. This extra-statutory requirement has no basis in the National Firearms Act and has been used to chill lawful ownership. I urge ATF to finalize this rule without delay and remove this unwarranted barrier from the NFA process.
