February 17, 1994 OPEN LETTER TO ALL KANSAS FEDERAL FIREARMS LICENSEES: I. Implementation of the Federal 5-day waiting period under Brady Law. As previously advised, effective February 28, 1994, the Brady Law requires that prior to your transfer of a handgun to a nonlicensee, you must notify the Chief Law Enforcement Officer where the prospective purchaser resides of the contents of ATF Form 5300.35, Statement Of Intent To Obtain A Handgun(s), and transmit a copy of the form to such officer. The notice must be given and a copy of the statement must be transmitted within 1 day after the purchaser completes the form. For purposes of these requirements, the Chief Law Enforcement Officer in Kansas is the County Sheriff, except for the incorporated cities and towns in Johnson County where the Chiefs of Police are the Chief Law Enforcement Officers. II. Reporting multiple sales of handguns.

These reports are to be made on ATF Form 3310.4, Report of Multiple Sale or Disposition of Pistols and Revolvers, and sent no later than the close of business on the day the multiple sale or other disposition occurs.
