Got a disapproval notice this morning. It was my first Efile since 41f, I messed it up. Resubmitted today for my Scorpion EVO. It got all the blanks filled in they said I missed. What a pain! I have to resubmit fingerprints too.
really sorry to hear that... so annoying.

Anyone get a call recently? Looks like some late October F4 Trusts are coming through on NFA Tracker.

9/26 check cashed, so hopefully shouldn't be much longer.

Trust eForm 1 submitted 12/10/20. Approved 1/11/21.


It took a month, but my local gunsmith finished my lower engraving this week. $50.

Think I'll try a regular laser engraving joint next time.

Sitting here waiting on the store to open.

Check was cashed the middle of September and approved 1/31/21.

It took them a month to cash the check and a month to get the email from the FFL.

About 6 months total wait.

Trust eForm 1 filed and order placed for a titanium QB .22 kit this morning (3/4/21).

BATFE is on the clock!

Well, BOO HISS!

I put in a unique model number that caused my application to go into PENDING RESEARCH.

First time doing a Form 1 silencer. Live and learn, I suppose.

Changed to "SUBMITTED/IN PROCESS" on April 6.

Have a slight issue. ATF changed the model name on the form by removing a hyphen. Wouldn't ordinarily be an issue, but the can is already engraved with the hyphen.

Any thoughts on what to do?

If the ATF cashed my payment for my Form 4 stamp, does that indicate that I am approved? I am trying to figure out where I am in the process.

Well, no worries. Talked with the NFA Division and they said it was just fine. Their system removed the dash but my engraving would work.

Whew!

For those of you selecting your own model name, it's best to choose one from the drop down list instead of making up your own. That added a month and some temporary heartache to my process.

Nope that is just the beginning step of the process, you have likely 200 days from being cashed to approval. That time period varies some, but for the most part that is about the average for Form 4's.

The last batch of Form 4 trust stamps my shop received were cashed in early-mid October.

My early January form 4's trust went pending on January 20th, I would be surprised if I get them back before August.

Ok, thanks for the info.

Another question...I listed my FFL as a local range. How soon can I go there and shoot with the suppressor some, provided I leave it there?

Are you asking whether or not you can use your suppressor while it is at your FFL? Different FFL's have different rules the only forsure thing is you cannot leave your FFL property with the Suppressor until you have your stamp.

Depends on FFL store policy. What is their recourse if they let you shoot it some, but then your Form is denied ... sell it as-is/used NFA item to someone else?

The range doesn't own it. They can't sell it.

Have you called up there? Call the ATFE office here in Dallas, they should be able to help give you an idea.

Did you get an email from the ATF with a cover letter? You had to send that in with your finger print cards to the ATF.

If not, what does your status say in the eforms portal?

I hate to tell you this but I had two form 1s take 6 months late last year, despite everyone getting theirs back in 1-2 months

I did a SBR in March of 2019 and December of 2020, both where approved right at 1 month. Both where done via eform 1, individuals. My fastest suppressor was 254 days, that was a form 4 trust.

Oh I am completely aware as most on this board were rubbing it in on how they had theirs back already.

I had two form 1s done via eform, as a trust. I think they didn't like the location of my 41F amendment but no one would answer any of my questions at the ATF, despite several calls with them.

Not trying to rain on anyone's parade, just letting the OP know that despite everyone receiving theirs quickly, longer delays can and do happen.

I got that and sent my prints. My form 1 is currently in the Submitted/In Process field.

I called them today...ATF said it was approved on March 11. I asked why in the world a month later do I not have my 2 stamps...they replied it could take up to another 45 days to actually received them....talk about being snake bit on this transaction.

Just FYI - it can actually be 180. I had some "lost in the mail" conveniently. Not trying to be a Debbie downer, just setting expectations.

How is this looking these days? Or is it pointless now the Dems are going after these?
