I guess I'm getting the short end of the stick

For a trust I got

3 Form 1 Efiles
3 Form 4 Paper Files
2 Form 1 Paper Files

The closest one is from Silencer shop, bought 6-19. Hopefully soon. I just got another form 4 back, check cashed 6-7.

All from before 41F. It's cool through I got more than enough to play with.

And the quick cashing is to keep the NFA offices more secure.  Nothing like knowing a place has piles and piles of checks for $200 laying around to entice an evil-doer.

If that's true, everyone who has a stamp in the line up should write letters to the OMB and GAO and our reps about the rediculous wait times.

Form 1's (especially e-filed) are being approved at a faster clip than Form 4's. This is verifiable.

I wouldn't be surprised if that "local dealer" was spot on about his expectations.  There was an enormous amount of discussion about the new rules, and several forums I visit were extremely busy with people asking for last-minute instruction and advice on Form 1 submissions.

I firmly believe that NFA Tracker badly underreports the actual number of submissions because the NFA "community" has become so much bigger so quickly that most submissions don't get entered.  I also believe that this keeps NFA Tracker from accurately reporting times, (although I think it'll be in the right ballpark) because of what I expect to be an insane number of submissions just before or at the deadline - a very large portion of which would not be entered in NFA Tracker.  And honestly, I haven't ever even created an account there, so my own submissions and stamps aren't part of the mix.

Whatever the actual situation winds up being, we'll definitely see slower approval times as the NFA Branch gets to later and later submissions, just because of the volume.  What I wonder about now is how slow NEW submissions are going to be...whether it's even worth starting the process at the moment, or maybe waiting until next year (and saving my money) to buy a commercial can.

I'm not sure that your dealer completely understands how the forms are processed. We know that July 2 submissions are assigned control numbers in the  3180xx as reported by sh1fty above. I have a efiled Form 1 from July 4th that went from Pending Research to SUBMITTED/IN PROCESS and was assigned control number 3614xx on July 27th.

That's 43,400 control numbers for efiled Form 1s over the 23 day period. ATF may have a $hitload of paper Form 4s as well that probably accounts for the number quoted by your dealer (the Silencer Shop truckload of paper), but I'm pretty certain that efiled Form 1s are at the level which I've described above.

FYI, right now, ATF is banging through about 680 of those Form 1 apps per day, so check your control number and calculate out from the July 2nd approval of control number 3180xx to see when your stamp will pop up. For me, assuming no changes to current daily production by ATF, it's 64 days from when sh1fty's got approved on March 24th (calculates out to May 27th for mine).

I'm still waiting on two Form 1's from 06/30/16 and 07/02/16. Looks like I need to call tomorrow and see whats going on. Both were eforms.

Update:
Just received the approval on my 7/2/16 Form 1. Still nothing on the 6/30/16 Form 1, looks like I need to check with the ATF tomorrow on it.

Let's see, the cut off date was 7/12.

Your 7/10 is -329700
My    7/27 is -359300

Note: I used 00 just for easier to calculate.  Mine was created on 7/01, pending research till after I sent pictures of the receiver requested by NFA, was pushed to pending on 7/27.

I'm not sure about how many pending research were there by the cut off date, but that's a lot for 2 days, almost 30k applications.
