was this a SilencerShop affiliated store? Did you use a kiosk that took prints? If so, your copy of the F4 probably should have been emailed to you

Or, did you fill in the F4 yourself and turn into store for them to handle the process?

The dealers actions you describe sound either shady or inept, or possibly he just doesn’t care.

If the…[Read more]

You should not expect instant gratification from the NFA. You ARE impatient. My first can took just over 180 days and my last one was just shy of 300 days; all on a trust.
Yes, the times are coming down but if you take the time to look over the transfer tracking history you may get a better idea of how long yours may take, with no errors…[Read more]

The only thing I have ever taken with me is my ID. I guess the dealer could be picky and want the trust for verification. I have never had this happen to me though.

I do carry the “copy” of my stamped F4 when I go out for pew pew fun. I also have my trust printed on a single sheet of paper with all the pages fitted at 9 pages per sheet,…[Read more]

I don’t really pay too much attention to the bar graph but go by what the scatter graph is displaying. Per that, for trusts, after July 19 total turnaround reflects a downward trend. Where with a cash date of 26 June 19, took over 280 days for my approval and the 27 days to arrive. The ones in July, just a few days later started dropping to…[Read more]

Stamp arrived on 30 Apr, 27 days after approval. Looks like I got slightly under the ridiculous 30 day average they are stating it is taking for the stamps to get out.
On the flip side, if the current wait times for approval keep going down like most of the forms submitted after last July, I can live with that. After waiting over 9 months for…[Read more]

You guys are right. This does suck having to wait as long as it does now to get the stamps out to the dealers. I remember when it was within a week they got there. Am I happy about the wait now? No way, but all that aside, I am glad that I am finally not “pending” any longer.
Now if my range would open about the time my stamp gets here.

Called again today. Happier Friday now!
Obsidian 45
Check cashed 26 June 19
Approved 03 Apr 20, just a week after I called last month.
Still waiting to arrive at dealer. I guess I can wait a few more days with the news that it on the way.
283 days cashed to approved.

Well, I took the plunge and called after 280 days of waiting, being right behind you on the cashed date in June. No luck for me; still “pending”.
The only good news was that they answered pretty fast. I guess Ill call again in a month if I don’t get good news from my dealer.

Did you or are you going to update the tracker?
Good for you. I have similar dates for a trust via SS. Hope the day count trend going back down continues.
My last can was 186 days and that was too long.

Approved 8 months ago but no stamp? You need to call em back and get a copy sent.

To add to checking your bank statement, statement above, I will state that your bank statement may not have the standard information on it as my 1st one was listed as something other than the check # generic statement. It had some electronic transfer that I kinda skipped over at fuurst on my statement.
My second one I did through SS and I got an…[Read more]

You only have the right to free speech if you tow the anti 2nd line and anchor in the eyes/ears of the left.

If mine gets that long, I know ill just have to continue to wait as I have no sane elected officials in my state to turn to; WA.

Just to clarify; you got a 25 day turnaround on a trust or, did you mean 2018 for cash date? Am I missing something?
If you got that fast turnaround, great deal for you.
That is one hell of a first post if true.

Im a year behind you.
Purchased same item 5/3/19
Check cashed 6/27/19
Now my endless wait begins.
Hope you have fun with that. I have two hosts just waiting for the approval in in a year or so….

You have to account for the time from check cashed, not from time submitted to SS. So…you only have been waiting on ATF/FBI since April. I would say you are possibly close if the average holds from the scatter graph and you don’t have any issues to hold you back. Looks to be about 180-190 days for most submissions in that time frame…[Read more]

Form 4 Trust (1 resp)
Hardened Arms Stingray Suppressor/Rifle
Cashed 21 Feb 18
Approved 28 Aug 18
Arrived and P/U at dealer 4 Sep 18

FYI. I have a concealed and used the barcode and am at 6 months as of today. Granted, mine is a trust, but only 1 responsible person. Looks like trusts and individual are fairly balanced out for time per the scatter graph.

Point is that I don’t think concealed helps and I have read from many others that they are not seeing any real pickup…[Read more]

From what I can make of the scatter graph, it looks like there are plenty of Dec/Jan and creeping into Feb. I could be wrong in my interpretation though….

Is that fast? Not trying to be an a$$. I submitted my paperwork with SS barcode but via snail mail. I sent on 13 Feb 18 and check cashed 21 Feb 18. Granted it took me a day to ensure all documents correct before mailing but that seems fast to me. I guess I just fell into the correct slot for checks that week. Now I’ll be punished with a…[Read more]
