What years were the Bluecards used?

[Ben Cartwright SASS]

What years were the old bluecards used and when did it switch to the FA10's?

I realize they were all lost to flooding and rat sh*t but curious to know what years they were used

1968 to 1998

Wishful thinking. Only 30K were destroyed. The rest were computerized by BATFE under contract with MSP in 1997-1998.

Thanks Len! That explains why I don't have a FA10 for my S&W 28 duty gun, it was on the old blue cards.

How are you doing and how do you like NH? Miss Jim Timilty on the Public Safety Committee!

My information came FTF with the person in charge at that time.

I have found some onion skin sales records while rummaging around in a box that was packed years ago. I almost don't even remembering buying these guns and I certainly still don't own them any longer. Early 80's

Blue cards were for FTF and you had to beg your chief for each one.

Onion skins were your copy from FFL transfers, they were part of a book of 50 transactions IIRC and when the book was used up it got shipped to MSP IIRC.

I love NH. I also miss Jim Timilty and I feel that my hands are tied wrt HD 4420 since I no longer live in MA.

I'm doing the best I can given the circumstances. Deena is in an in-patient hospice, so things aren't real good here.

Len, I realize you need to stay busy during this trying time. However, stay focused on Deena. The rest of us still in MA will do our best wrt HD 4420. Take care.

I am very sorry to hear that. Our prayers are with you.

Does anyone know if you get the txn records from the state (fill out the form and pay the cash) will the txns from the blue cards be on the list.

 

[Ben Cartwright SASS]

I did that, let me check.

Well that didn't help, my Model 28 that was on a blue card got sold to a coin dealer, years later I bought it back from him and we did an FA 10 on it so it shows under my new LTC number

Others will have to answer or maybe it didn't show under my LTC from the 80's or not as I don't remember that number

It does list the various LTC numbers and the lowest one I find is 100xxxxxA from 1999 and I have the handwritten FA10s from those. One interesting one is a LTC number starting with "4" and the rest of the number is the 1"00xxxxxA" you would think they would check for a valid LTC number...

I don't see anything from the old blue card days...
