P220 SmudgeThanks, guys! Feels good to have it resolved.

I put a vertical foregrip on my Scorpion earlier today and felt like I was getting away with something lol.

Smudge, what are the exact functions of those two emails? Under what circumstances are they relevant, outside of the example provided by your case?
The NICS email is for clearing up issues with NICS delays and mistaken identity denials and such. Direct communication with the FBI about the issue instead of just waiting and wondering. The IPB email is for the Industry Processing Branch, and they're responsible for industry forms processing. I hear you thinking "Well... you're not in the industry, so why did you email them, and why did they help you?" I emailed them because I saw a number of folks in the NFA subreddit relate success with contacting them through this email. How, or why, I could only speculate, and your guess is as good as mine. All I know is it worked, and if the wait on my suppressors starts coming up on a year, I'll be directly emailing the examiner who approved this batch for me.

Lol, thanks. I have one in the parts bin. If all goes well, I'll be coming home with a bench vise and torque wrenches, along with a truckload of my late father's tools and machinery next month, so I'm gonna get the blocks later this year and do it right.

Well…I got my approval yesterday and picked up my suppressor today. The Edorms site is still showing it in the Draft folder. Oh well. Just shy of 6 months. I was expecting maybe Christmas time.

hrcjonIt seems impossible to me that an eform that is not in the submitted tab was submitted. How is that possible?

No idea. It’s never moved from the Draft folder. A few weeks ago I was in my gun shop and asked them about it. They said not to worry about it because that site doesn’t update sometimes and it’s very glitchy. I sent a message through the ask the experts messaging thing and asked about. Never got a response. Just the approval email a couple of weeks later.

KSGMLGS got a customer's paper form4 back today. Submitted on 3/20/23. Since they abandoned eforms, the turn-arounds have been pretty respectable.

Received approved today, 9-2-2023 (date next to approval signature is 8-28-23).
LOL. There's no predicting this shit.
This gives me a little hope. I submitted for my 2nd can on 5/5/2023. I was hoping for Jan 24. Maybe a little earlier?? Congrats!

flesheatingvirusNice! I just put in for my Wolfman, but I already have the 3-lug adapter. What will that be going on?

VgexDedicated PCC can. That way my Rugged Obsidians can go back to dedicated pistol cans. The Wolfman will live on my CZ Scorpion, APC9, and MKE AP5/AP5k. I bought the 3-lug mount when it showed up on sale a couple months back. Since they are available mainly in batches, I snatched one up.
