Storage of firearms - Leaving the country??

Recommended Posts

I have a hypothetical legal question about a situation I could face.

 

Hypothetically, if I had to leave the country for a period of time (1-3 years) due to a work opportunity - what would I be obligated to do with my firearms by law?

 

Say this situation would have me living in Bermuda where there's no way I could bring them, unfortunately.

 

If this were to happen my plan would be to store my firearms in a locked safe at a immediate family member's residence where only I could get into it when I would come back to the US for visits. The guns would be locked up in a private residence in the suburbs located in a nice, remote area. I would be coming back probably once every 3-6 months and would be checking on them and hopefully using them, oiling, cleaning, etc.

 

Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you!

I did an ffl transfer through them recently. Nice guys and a great looking facility.

Thanks for the feedback, you guys! I am going to look into the storage facility as an option.

 

From a legal standpoint, would it be illegal for me to not sell my firearms if I am going to be an expat in another country for a number of years? (ie: could I legally leave them at a parent or siblings house for storage if that's not my current main residence??)

Basically, if I am confident and trustful in leaving them at a family member's home, then I would rather do that than pay someone to hold them. Also that could be annoying if I come home and just want to shoot for a day or two (bc I'd prob have to go there, pay to take them out, pay to put back).
