Has anyone that submitted their forms in March gone pending yet? This is my first NFA purchase so I am over joyed with the speed of the whole system.

Pending March 2nd I believe. I submitted in late February sometime. I forget.

It'll get here when it gets here.

Yea I guess I need to relax and wait on already submitted form4.

I just bought a can yesterday for my m1a yesterday. It will have to be form 3 then form 4.

Just so I am doing this correctly. I need to purchase a nfa item every other month so that when they start to come in I no longer worry about the wait?

I had forms received 3/1 and check cashed 3/12, I'll call in about a month to see if it went pending. I'm honestly guessing December for approval.

Since its first a form 3 you probably wont see the can for over a month, one of my form 3's will be at 7 weeks this Monday. And I purchased it almost two months ago, apparently it takes time for the supplier to send the forms in.

Sent 2 form 1s 3/14/12
Check cashed 3/27/12

That's all I care about. I never call. When the check is cashed, I know they got the package.
Stamps will be here in 6 months or so. Til then, I'll enjoy my "pistols"

Dealer supposedly sent the form 4 in march 20, I just checked, check cashed April 3. So I have 6 months wait too!

Mailed my Form 4 for a RDIAS in February 28th, and it still isn't pending The money order has been cashed since March 6th though, so it should go pending anytime now. I'll post here when it does.

My check was cashed for some F4's on 2/29, and they finally went pending 3/22.

Mailed Form 1 and Form 4 together along with two postal m/o's and two copies of my trust During the first week of March. Called yesterday, April 4 and was told both forms are pending as of April 3rd. So far it seems fast but I know the wait really begins now.
