Abstract: Licensed dealers and pawnbrokers in Arizona, California,
New Mexico and Texas must submit to ATF reports of multiple sales or
other dispositions of certain rifles whenever, at one time or during
any five consecutive business days, you sell to an unlicensed person or
otherwise dispose of two or more semi-automatic rifles capable of
accepting a detachable magazine and with a caliber greater than .22
(including .223/5.56 caliber). The required information must be
submitted on ATF F3310.12. The information collection (IC) OMB #1140-
0100 is being revised to expand the FFL population required to complete
the form. ATF is now requiring Type 07 FFLs and Type 08 FFLs in these
States to also report multiple sales of certain rifles on ATF Form
3310.12.
Overview of This Information Collection
1. Type of Information Collection: Revision of a previously
approved collection.
2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Report of Multiple Sale or
Other Disposition of Certain Rifles.
3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of
the Department sponsoring the collection: Form number: ATF Form
3310.12. Component: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives, U.S. Department of Justice.
4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as the obligation to respond: Affected Public: Private Sector-for
or not for profit
[[Page 88967]]
institutions. The obligation to respond is mandatory. The statutory
requirements are implemented in title 18 U.S.C. 923(g)(5)(A).
5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: The estimated
number of eligible respondents is 15,000 but the estimated number of
responses is approximately 12,000, and it will take each respondent 12
minutes to complete their responses.
6. An estimate of the total annual burden (in hours) associated
with the collection: The estimated annual public burden associated with
this collection is 2,400 hours, which is equal to 12,000 (total
responses) * .2 (12 minutes).
7. An estimate of the total annual cost burden associated with the
collection, if applicable: The average wage for a firearms sales clerk
is $16.70 per hour and postage at $0.51. Accordingly, the total burden
on respondents is $46,200.00 annually (2,400 total hourly burden x
$16.70 hourly wage rate for a sales clerk) + (postage: $0.51 x 12,000
responses).
