CoreSTORE - FFL: Processing a 3310

How to process a ATF 3310 Form.


## # coreSTORE


3310 Forms

Our system helps ensure compliance with federal regulations by automatically generating ATF Form 3310.4 whenever you sell two or more handguns to the same person within five consecutive business days.

This form needs to be submitted to the ATF and your local law enforcement agency.

Manage 4473 Alert

Once you complete the associated order, an alert will appear in two locations.

First, an orange box with a white triangle will appear in the Manage 4473 page. Clicking this box will open the 3310 form for processing.

Verify the Information

The system automatically fills the form with firearm and customer details from the 4473, and law enforcement agency info from your Bound Book settings.

Please review everything for accuracy before submitting.

Print and Email

You can choose to print the completed Form 3310 for your records, however, it will automatically attach to the 4473 PDF. To send the form, click "Submit by Email" and the system will send it directly to the ATF and the local law enforcement agency you designated.

Manually Generate a 3310

If the system doesn't automatically generate a Form 3310, you can create one manually.

On the Manage 4473 page, select the "3 Dot Menu" next to the 4473 in question. This will open a menu with additional options.

To Access 3310.12

This form is only required for southern border state dealers.

3310.12 Viewable

After enabling viewing, you'll now see a dedicated space for Form 3310.12 alerts on the Manage 4473 page. A 3310.12 is processed the same way as the 3310.4 except it is only required to be sent to the ATF.

Subsequent 3310 within 5 days.

If within 5 consecutive business days the buyer purchases additional firearms subject to the 3310 requirement the system will generate the additional 3310.

EXAMPLE BELOW: Two handguns were sold to John Smith on Jun 17, 2024 (4473 ID #14). He returned on Jun 18, 2024 and purchased an additional handgun (4473 ID #15). Not only is there a 3310 for #14 but the system has now generated a 3310 for #15 to account for the additional handgun purchase that falls under the reporting requirement.

You access the 3310 the same way as described previously.

Box 2c Populated

Box 2c, "Are any of the firearm(s) connected to another multiple sale?, will be checked yes and will include the date of that previous sale.

This ties the transaction to the previous 3310 for this customer for tracing purposes by the National Tracing Center (NTC).

Step 14 screenshot


Additional Firearm Listed

This 3310, created subsequent to a previous 3310, will list the new firearm that meets the requirement for a 3310.

NOTE: It will not include the firearms listed on the previous 3310 as recommended by our regulatory agencies.

Processing is completed the same way using the Print and Email buttons at the bottom of the form.
