Overview of This Information Collection

2 (5320.2) is required of (1) a person who is qualified to manufacture 
National Firearms Act (NFA) firearms, or (2) a person who is qualified 
to import NFA firearms to register manufactured or imported NFA 
firearm(s).
    Type of information collection: extending a previously approved 
collection without change.
    Title of the form/collection: Notice of Firearms Manufactured or 
Imported.
    Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
Department sponsoring the collection: Form number: ATF Form 2 (5320.2). 
Component: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives.
    Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well 
as the obligation to respond: Affected public: business or other for-
profit, federal government, state, local or tribal government. 
Obligation to respond: mandatory per 26 U.S.C. 5822.
    Estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time 
estimated for an average respondent to respond: There are an estimated 
4,212 respondents associated with this collection every 3.415 times 
annually, and it will take each respondent an average of approximately 
30 minutes to complete their responses.
    Estimate of the total annual burden (in hours) associated with the 
collection: The estimated annual public burden associated with this 
collection is 7,192 total hours, which is equal to 4,212 (total 
respondents) * 3.415 (# of responses per respondent) * .5 (30 minutes).
    Estimate of the total annual other cost burden associated with the 
collection, if applicable: Most of the completed forms for this IC are 
either submitted by mail (including by facsimile transmission) or 
electronically through the eForms system. As such, we estimate the 
total mailing cost for this IC to be $.60 (postage and envelope) per 
submission. Therefore, the total mailing costs for this IC is $8,630, 
which is calculated as follows: 14,384 (total respondents) * $.60 
(postage costs per respondents).
