Both my stamps arrived Monday! Now just waiting on my sig MPX form 1 which has been approved but not received and Colt SBR lower that will require correction. Roughly 2 months door to door on both forms, not too bad.

This is maddening.  I bought a can on 9 April.... waited over two months for the Form 3....now Form 3 times are down and Form 4 Trust times are up and I'm still waiting.

Now I'm starting to think it'll be a long time before I see mine.

I mailed it in June 9. It went pending July 9th - so close to 4 weeks from receipt to pending.

How do you know when the status went to pending?

I mailed mine July 30, they cashed my check August 5.

That's not correct. My check cash date was about a week after mailing it - but pending was 3 weeks later.

I called in. They ask serial number, trust name, and who it's transferring from.

Wait about a month after mailing to calling, otherwise they might not tell you it went pending yet.

All the Form 4 Trust approvals on the first page of NFA tracker are from fricking April



This doesn't make any sense...unless they're purposely slow rolling trusts.

Click on "Stamp Received" twice to see the data sorted by latest stamp received date or you could do the same with stamp approved

Form 4 Trusts are being approved and received now from a range of April 13 to May 26 check cashed

Does anyone know how long it generally takes to receive your stamp after being approved? BATFE says 30 days but from i gather it doesn't take the full 30 days usually.

It's not consistent. Just when ever they get it in the mail. Sometimes it's a couple days, sometimes it's a couple weeks.

Same here. Long Form 3 wait on a can I bought in March, and an even longer Form 4 wait cause I used an LLC.

I wish I had mailed my form 4 right after the Form 3 went in. I saw where a guy did this that bought about the same time I did. He had his approved Form 4 back about a month after his Form 3 cleared.

I am waiting on my first three. all approved on 4 September. If the sheriff signed my stuff today, then tomorrow I will have two more form 4s and a form 1 to wait on...currently waiting on a form 3 from capitol armory. This NFA game is a terrible one to play, I am horribly impatient.

I broke down and called about an item I'm waiting on.  The pending date was 7/6, which is confusing because it was mailed in the same envelope as an item the went pending 6/8 and I already got the forms back.

Perhaps you're in the same boat as me. Mine should have been delivered 06/12, but didn't go pending for another 4 weeks.
