THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT The Osprey came in last week. Form 4's got sent off today. At my dealer's counter, I installed the piston, scrutinized it, but the joy wasn't all there. Even though I fondled that thing like I was trying to marry it, the can still feels like someone else's. 
Like I said. Weird. If I see my paperwork/stamp comes back completed by March of next year, I'll be a happy man. |

No, your not the olny weird person in the world.
Look in the Cubical next to you... it doesn't feel like your cause it's not yours... Yet. As a owner of an osprey FDE-45 can you will enjoy it once it is yours and only yours. |

Bravo on the FDE. I wasn't sure which one I wanted, so I took "first available". |

I know, I can't spell my way out of a wet paper bag.
My FDE-45 Osprey is one of the first 100 SilencerSo made. Looks and works great on my FDE FNP-45 Tatical. Great cans! |

No, I am sure I looked like a weirdo drooling over my 762SDN6 when i got to hold it. It pissed me off the first time and then on the second visit it made me even madder having to leave her sitting with the dealer. I want to take her home dammit.

Don't worry you'll feel better when you get to take it home and shoot it
 But yeah get an FNP-45 Tactical for that suppressor, it's my favorite combo for sure. |

No your not.... When I purchased, err paid for my sparrow, hard knowing I just spent $1000 on it(Can, Stamp and Trust) and won't get to try it out for at least 6 months. Almost felt like I just got scammed for a grand! Lol
And Paperwork was sent on April 3rd, and went pending May 8th 
6 month wait isn't lookin good |

It's a shame the way the government handles these transfers, but it's the only system we have and our freedom is limited to what the government is willing to offer us.

6 month wait isn't lookin good More like 8 or 9 months now. Sorry When my dealer called me to tell me that I can finally pick up my Phantom, I was at work & didnt get off till 6pm. That day is the LONGEST day EVER. He told me I could just stop by the next day if I wanted. I told him, HELL NO! I'll be there as soon as I can get there, without getting pulled over lol Im still trying to figure out why I didnt buy one years ago. I mean, I havent had this much fun with a gun since my first AK bump fire |

I feel your pain, I purcahsed my fist can at the end of January and two weeks later bought 3 more. 3 of them had to be ordered so I had to wait on the form 3, last week my final from 3 can came in and I sent off the paper work yesterday.
Total I have 5 stamps im waiting on, will get my Form 1 SBR stamp first, followed by the sparrow since the dealer had one in stock then the phantom, osprey lastly the MM going to be a long year... Here's a family pic. 762 Ti Phantom Osprey 45 Gemtech MM Sparrow  |

It's yours, you paid for it. The wait just the .gov's way of discouraging people from buying them. You're just proving that you can be patient & out-wait the stupid law instead of being intmidated by it.

Just you because my Osprey9 has been pending since the end of January, but I can visit it and play with it all I want until I can actually take it home.

The first can I purchased I bought from Major Malfunction. It arrived at the local dealer I was using, and I subsequently discovered he was taking it with him all over the place and putting it on display at gun shows. |
