NFA wait times and BS thread

Have two suppressors waiting... filed on 2/22/17 check cashed about a week later.

Haven't bothered to contact the ATF for status yet.

My last suppressor took 6 months

efiled SBR's all took less than one month like two years ago.

 

I'm in no way defending the ATF but damn something is not right if you guys are waiting this long for stamps some of the guys from the LGS i know are even getting them back in 4-7 months. All of the paper work in this area goes to Atlanta field office for processing.

 

No nothing wrong that's just normal processing time from what I've seen on Reddit and other places from people

 

10 months is about the average. There was a backlog caused by the whole transition to 41F the NFA branch doesn't have a ton of people processing forms.

 

I would file normal then add responsible person afterwards

 

I don't mean to get personal or in your business you have this set up for wife or other as Settlor or joint with full power of the Trust? just curious.

I add and remove people like I change my under wear through my Trust Attorney.

 

My attorney has it set up where I can add and remove when I want. He also told me I dont need to have anyone on the trust until my NFA item comes back

 

Thats how mine is set up as well....41F just fucked shit up but still have many work arounds

 

This thread reminds me I have to fill out one of those damn forms to get a suppressor.

 

I've got 2 suppressors in ATF jail. That's the good news. The bad: the gun shop was just got robbed. They took around 20 suppressors. Have no idea if any were mine. Wonder WTF you do if yours are stolen before you even take possession of them.

 

Damn
I would think the shop could contact the ATF and ask to change the serial number on the forms.

 

I'm guessing the ATF won't care. The best I could hope for is the shop refunding the cost of the suppressor and tax stamp. Hopefully mine wasn't one taken.

Looking to file for my SBR and a suppressor when I get out of the service and out of Commiefornia

 

It's my understanding its not yours until the transfer takes place....

Just about all shops here put customers stuff in the safe for insurance reasons

 

Just got word from NFA branch that it should drop to 4 month waits here very soon!

 

But I'll believe it when I see it. Do you have any documentation that shows its going down?

 

You are going to get high blood pressure waiting on this

 

That's why I take medication for it

 

No just the info passed on when checking status on a few forms you

 

I did hear that this would be expected from my Silencerco rep. who's a good friend.
