going to fill this damn request out like she said, and will then call.

what is the "eform ID number"? I don't see that on my form 4


Look for an email titles "eForms Application Submission Notification for Permit/Control No: " from when you submitted it.

You should stop wasting your time with ATF and contact your US Rep though.


Gonna need that control number when contacting the rep though

Thank you for contacting Congressman Tom Cole for assistance.

We have contacted the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) on your behalf. When our office has received a response from this agency, we will be in contact with you again.

In the meantime, should you have any questions or additional information to relay, please contact me at the address and telephone listed above.

My only hope is that if enough of us continue to pester our reps, the squeaky wheel will get some grease and they legislate this bull**** away.

As soon as I hit whatever the ATF claims is the "average processing time" I reach out to my rep.

Shlackin- not to throw salt in a wound but you probably could have had this a couple months ago had you reached out to your rep.

I agree w/ above- I'd bet you have it in a few days

I thought you said Dec 2022?

Either way, I bet your rep's office has it in your hands before the end of the week.


December……. January. Not much difference. Way too dang long. After looking everything up it was January.

Now I know. I didn't even know the Reps would get involved with this stuff. Next one will be different.

Not sure if this is victory or just relief.

My BOGO SiCo Omega 300 is in the "preparing eforms" stage and now it's been recalled. This should be fun.

And you have a good one. Cole hates the ATF.
It would be nice if he did something about it. Even if it's requiring a completed process within "x" days of submittal of all material.

Contacted my Rep, Austin Pfluger, today. Form 4 was submitted in late February and still pending. Hopefully he can do something.

You know that he is 1 of 435 right?
Sure. I thought they were supposed to represent us?

The failure to get the hearing protection act through while GOP had control still angers me. Of course then I realize that they are all in on this crap together, and as a whole don't give two squats about the people.

Garbage response from the NFA division.


Hello,
The NFA Division is committed to processing all forms as quickly as possible. We ask for your understanding that completing personalized status checks for applicants significantly delays processing efforts. NFA appreciates your understanding so that our staff can remain focused on processing applications and not researching status checks. Thank you.
What we can tell you:
  • Your E-FORM(s) are currently pending.
  • We will process your E-FORM when we reach your received date in the processing queue and your NICS check has come back with a PROCEED.
  • The published average processing times are updated quarterly therefore may not always accurately reflect current processing times.
  • If you have multiple E-FORMS received on the same date, they may be approved on different days because they aren't necessarily assigned to the same examiner.
  • We do not offer batch processing on e-forms.
    • We are not able to provide you information as to whether your E-FORM has been assigned to an examiner or the status of your background.
Thank you,

NFA Division

SilencerCo Recall


When did you submit your paperwork to SiCo for the free can? I submitted August 3rd, and mine still says "In Process".

Unfortunately the original can I bought which is still at my vendor AND my free can are both subject to the recall. Luckily, SicCo says they are working vendors to get cans they are holding sent back to SiCo for the recall repair while they are still in jail. That way customers don't have to send them in after getting the can out of jail.

They are saying paper forms are taking over 12 months. eforms are taking 5-7.

I was on hold with ATF for 50 minutes to be told that my form 1 is pending. 12 months for a form 1? It took 11 months for my form 4 in 2021

We shouldn't have a federal law enforcement agency who's mission is to act as a goon squad used to punish the political enemies of a political interest group by violating their constitutional rights. The ATF along with the NFA/GCA/Hughes Amendment need to dumped into the dustbin of history.

So not just the ATF, but the FBI, DOJ, IRS, EPA, etc. all need to be abolished.

From my rep......


Here is what the ATF said ~

Thank you for the inquiry. Here is the information that I was able to find for Shalackin:

1. eForm- was received on 01-31-2023. As of 11-15-2023, the application is PENDING with ATF because it is in a DELAYED status with the FBI's National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS).

DELAYED status with FBI/NICS could mean that there's an issue in the applicant's record, or something that needs to be corrected or clarified. ATF cannot complete the transfer without a definitive PROCEED from FBI/NICS.

I will use the release form you sent me to inquire to the FBI on your background checks and let you know what I find out.

No clue as to why I would be delayed. Other than this is a new trust that I setup through silencershop?
