Two things guided this build. A tight budget, and wanting to keep things simple. I know what I built won't work for everybody, but so far I'm liking it. After I put 500-1000 rounds down range I'll know better about how the combination works for me. So I decided to change the upper. I tried it with both the carry handle and with a red dot. I liked shooting the irons much better. I figured what the hell and decided to go with an A2 upper. The A2 saved 5 ounces over the carry handle and got rid of the knobs.

I'll be using Magpul SL furniture and for right now it will be a KISS rifle while I figure out what I want to do with optics. The upper is on a pistol lower until the stamp arrives. Worse than Christmas I tell ha! I eFiled today. I hope it all goes OK. |

As of yesterday, it looks like a 25-35 day turnaround. The holidays caused some backlog, but yesterday they pumped thru 4 days of Form 1's. Check out nfatracker.com if you haven't already. I typically pull down the XLS and do some filtering/sorting.

I filed 3/3 and they're just now on 2/1 or 2/2 submissions I believe. I think it will be another month for me and probably a 60-70 day wait when its all said and done.

I've seen the Draft Watermark issue mentioned before. What's up with that? From the EFORMS newsletter: Watermarks on eForms PDF’s Users have found that they may receive an email notification of approval or disapproval of a form but the PDF of the form is either not attached or has a draft or submitted watermark on it. This occurs for any of the eForms and results because the PDF did not properly generate. When this happens, please use the Ask the Experts function to direct an email to us notifying us of the issue. Include the permit/control number so we can check your form. For NFA forms, use the NFA Questions function. For Form 6, use the Imports Questions function.

It's right around the corner guys. Just hope you don't get a draft watermark like I did. It took 5 days to clear that up.
ETA: Just looked at the graph on NFA Tracker. My approval was the first one in months to take over sixty days. Now there are a whole bunch of them above the 60 day line. It looks like the current average is between 9 and 10 weeks so it's getting worse. |

Im at 63 days on a 2/10 submission. When I filed the graph was at 35 days so its almost doubled since my submission.
