This is the part that would concern me. What is silencer shop showing for the form 3?

I see today that they have rolled the approvals date back from 5/31 to 4/14. Somehow I knew it was too good to be true.

I hate the 28 to 300 days before that more.

So apparently I've got another 3 months to wait. My check was cashed in early July.

What a bunch of horseshit. Mad

I am right there with you. My Form 4 went in the end of June, check cashed 7/6 of 2016. I'm hoping for the end of February or early March. Here's to the dream of the hearing protecion law going through.

Get used to it. My check was cashed 4/29/16 but didn't go pending till 5/16/16. As of 1/3/17 a very nice ATF examiner informed me it had just passed to the analyst and should be approved within a few days. Eek



Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view.

Complacency sucks…

Sweet!
One of my checks was also cashed on 4/29/16.
Hopefully soon I'll have at least the first can of 2016 in my hands. IIRC it was an Omega762, then two weeks later I bought an Omega 9k.

Did you call the ATF?

I did. I'd seen some stamps come not back with my same check cash date already. Seems like this one took longer than most to go from check cashed to processing.

Boy I gotta be close on my form 1. Submitted mine on 6/20 which was a. It closer to the ramp up at the end so I'd expect it to be just a little longer than the moth difference between yours and mine.

Interesting, maybe I should call them.

They've only got so many people so that kind of shit happens when you submit your paperwork in a panic situation.

During the last panic, which was right after Sandy Hook I had bought 3 suppressors ... one he had in stock, the other 2 he had to order ... it took a total of 336 days for the two he had to order ... ~2 months to get transferred to him and 9 months to get my form 4 stamps

I submitted my first two at the end of GWB's term; Obama had been elected but hadn't taken office yet ... that was 61 days on a trust but mailed in & back.


If you really want something you'll find a way ...
... if you don't you'll find an excuse.

I'm really not a "kid" anymore ... but I haven't grown up yet either Wink

Finally got my last pending can, a Spectre II.

Form 4 Trust, my local dealer had it in stock so no Form 3 delays to deal with.

Submitted: 4/25/16
Check cashed: 4/29/16
Approved: 12/28/16
Stamp received: 1/4/17

So pretty much 8 months exactly from the time the check was cashed until the time the stamp was approved.
