The government has 60 days from the date the decision was rendered to perfect their appeal. There aren't any do-overs or "revivals" if they miss the deadline.

Thank you for that info.

We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual."

Methinks that the ATF will be running out of steam on this issue in, what, a bit over 10 days or so? I hope Trump defangs these cretin, along with the rest of the just-us dept.

He's a political appointee.

He resigns ahead of noon on the 20th or he is fired.

OLD THREAD REVIVAL.

So out of the blue this morning, I received three emails from ATF that three of my form 1 amnesty filings from May 2023 had been approved. Stamped conditional approval per ruling, all approved today. That's three of the eight. Not even sure what this means. We were wondering if come January they were going to process them as neither required the $200 tax.

^^ 'Stamped conditional approval per ruling' is standard for all of the Pistol Brace Amnesty Form 1 filings. It just means that the approval was per conditions pursuant to Rule 08F that were NOT part of the NFA (National Firearms Act), such as NO requirement for the Maker's Engraving on the Receiver and Tax Exempt (Firearm NOT subject to the Making Tax). All of the Pistol Brace Amnesty Form 1's were stamped 'APPROVED WITH CONDITIONS' Pursuant to ATF Final Rule 2021R-08F.

Assuming you filed prior to the deadline, they 'should' process them, though where those forms have been all this time, and why they were not processed until now is mind boggling. Though not required by law, those firearms are now SBRs and part of the NFA Registry.

Thank you for reminding me of the engraving part. It's just a year and a half later out of nowhere on a Sunday morning surprised me.
