Varies widely.  I've had some clear in under two weeks, and others have taken 3 months or more this year.

My last one was 6 weeks.

As said the waits can vary all over the place.  You are however still better off waiting and getting exactly what you want.

Yes SS puts up these dates, but they don't tell the whole story, like where they still have outstanding Form 3s going back to at least 6/20/2014.  Ask me how I know...

Almost 11 weeks? I would get your dealer to call BATFE...
But yes, SS's dates are generalizations and not everyone fits into their numbers, but probably most (hell they do a lot of business).

I think theres an issue when guys post X weeks for me.
So it throws peoples ideas of the wait times off.  

Its much more helpful if X weeks for me and received on this date is posted.

Im not pointing anyone out.  I just see this in most of the form 3 wait threads....so its hard to determine what the wait is CURRENTLY.

SS

F3 submitted 7/9, approved 9/16.

I tried calling the NFA on my own too.  I was asked if I was with the receiving SOT and I was honest said no. Then they said we can't speak with you.

But the very next day, BOOM approved so who knows.

Oh, and my buddy through SS-  F3 submitted 7/20 and approved 9/1.

I posted in one of the other threads about this, but mine was Pending June 18 and finally approved on Sept. 9th, so it looks like they've sorted out the lost June pile.
