Ya, there was an issue because the dealer gave up his SOT, plus they had some other issues. It was definitely a frustrating experience.

Forms were submitted for a trust. From what I gathered, the examiner in charge of my application got laid off (they weren't productive enough, go figure) so the applications pending were diverted to another examiner and expedited. I hope the rest of my form 4's get processed that 'fast'.

Don't call it's just more depressing when it still isn't approved. April 29 sent I've called twice. And now the wait seems to have slowed down exponentially YMMV

They haven't slowed down, the number of silencers purchased grew exponentially in the last few months before 41P.

Anyone know if the same folks look at Form 1's and 4's?  Seems like 1's are mid/late June now so they should finish them in the next couple months then hopefully 4's will pick back up a bit.

Bah.....They collect our tax dollars before they even begin to look at he forms. It should be the other way around, the very fact that it takes 9 months is evidence of that.  I must be missing something....

Depends on the examiner. They don't pull each form out of the same pile.

You are letting the anti-gunners win. They know they only need to make firearm transfers harder and then people will give up on exercising their rights.

That's different. By your previous post you made it sound like you were going to stop doing it out if frustration over the wait times. I too am okay on suppressor purchases for quite sometime because of my pre-41P splurging. If the HPA did pass, just for the hell if it I would buy a direct thread can to pin/weld to a 10.5" AR upper to have a stamp free gun.

I just bought my first post 41P NFA item (SBS) last week because I don't have one of those, so to hell with the anti-gunners.

Purchased a sandman ti and an octane 45 on May 17 using my trust.  Approved on Feb 2, just waiting on the stamps to get to the dealer so I can pick them up.

Edited cause I put the wrong approved date, sheesh, it's seemed like a year.
