NFA Timelines Thread

[T-DOGG]

It looks like things are speeding up a bit. It might be time to send in my two Form 4 paper trusts. I hated the idea of .gov keeping my $ for over a year so have just sat on these two suppressor stamp requests. They were practically free cans anyway. I haven't missed not having them.

This was my first NFA experience and I'm pleasantly surprised.

Just got (2) back for customers that were both Form 4 individuals. Check cashed on 1/2/19 and 7/12/19 and they were approved 10/2/19 and 10/3/19. Both back in our hands 10/10/19. Not sure what happened on the 2nd one. It was a Silencerco free one from the promo they ran in 2018. Hope this is a sign of things to come but I won't hold my breath.

Apparently there is a research hold on mine and the ATF needs to speak to the dealer....ugh. Apparently they tried to notify us on the 17th, but I haven't heard anything.

On a side note, it looks like that is the same day Charlie had some sort of surgery and was supposed to be at home recovering.

Maybe I'm a lucky one. I sent paperwork in on 2 SBR,S late June. Received them back Oct 1st. I heard all the horror stories of 12 months or more.

Form 4 trusts are taking the longest. I’m now 433 days since check cashed.

I'm well aware. Since he said SBR, he could have done it on a form 1 if he built it. Form 1 online is coming back in less that 30 days currently, WITH a trust. Hence my question.

[FONT=&amp][FONT=&amp]Ive been getting anxious waiting here lately, so I called the ATF today for the first time to check the status of my transfer. The guy answering my call told me it was approved November 12, he then said that’s today. I blurted out holy .... over the phone the guy answering just started laughing. [/FONT][/FONT]

You were a month ahead of me on purchase and check cashed. The anticipation is killing me. I'm on vacation for 3 weeks right now and would love to get mine. Probably won't happen though.

 

[dung]

I had to speak with the research assistant on mine....she needed a corrected address in September, but she didn't hear from the dealer for a month. I also had to provide an updated CLEO last week. Check was cashed 1/22 on a Form 4 trust. Hoping the rest of the process gets knocked out shortly.

 

[Tactically Fat]

Add 8 or 9 days to all the timelines on post #1809 for 2 more Forms 4 on a trust.

So...a big lesson learned today and hopefully those of you who are interested in getting a suppressor learn from my mistake. When you first mention that you're going to call the ATF for an update...do it. My purchase was approved on Oct 5 and was available for pickup on Oct 19. It's been sitting at the dealer for over a month waiting on me. The dealer does claim that they did call me on the 19th and left me a voicemail. I have no reason to doubt them. I don't know what happened to the voicemail though. I just wish they would've attempted another call. So today was day 340; it was ready for pickup on day 306.

I forgot...this is my first NFA item so I'm now a part of the club if there is one.
