APPROVED! I know that to many of you this is not very exciting, but I'm sure ya'll were as excited as I am when you got your 1st.

Anyways, big thanks to ARFCOM and its very helpful members for the dummy-proof guides to help out others.

That is all.

Matt

My newest pride and joy:

When and how did you send it in?

Congrats! Mine arrived during this past weekend, and already got it engraved and a shorty 11.5 on the way

Only took 5 months to happen though

Worth the wait.

Crosspost from the Armory Section:

Would anybody happen to know or suggest it as an option to just keep the emailed approved form 1 on your phone? Seems like it would be an easier option to scaling down a copy and keeping it in your wallet or in the grip of your weapon...

Thanks,
Matt

You're going to need a printed copy Matt.

Thanks for the advice FreeBear, you non-lawyer

Is a printed copy acceptable to be scaled down to a still-readable size and stored in the grip of my sbr?

I get home Friday and have a little work to do prior to assembly. But I promise I will get a pic up very soon. Btw, its a Mini Draco with a StormWerkz stock adapter and MagPul CTR stock.

This trip has turned out to seem longer than normal. It is a wonderful trip though. Its partially for my wife's birthday and partially to see her before her and her unit leave for Africa

Probably (after all, I am a "non lawyer" [thank God]).

Just be careful you don't shrink it too much. Being able to read the weapon's serial number written across the stamp by the ATF official is probably your best indicator...

Just e-filed yesterday. I'm hoping the month wait is still the norm.

I would plan for ~2 months, but hope for less if I were you. And if you can help it, don't bother checking the status everyday like I did. Its like watching your food cook in the microwave

When there is a change in status, you will receive an email notifying you of the change (hopefully to APPROVED status). Best of luck.

Aww, heck yeah!
That's a nice looking SBR Matt.

If you can't hit them, then use the muzzle flash to burn the house down around them!

Kidding aside, that's a darn nice entry into the NFA world.

Submitted mine 9/30. Heres hoping to a good email this week.

Very additive.

Nice piece man. Looks good. I hope J&G drops those again. Wish I would have bought one when they were $400 vs the 5 they are now.

J&G Sales still has them and for about the same price i paid for mine 3 years ago:

I'm strongly considering making the drive up there to pick up another (when the wife deploys to Africa next month of course)

I love my AK, even more now with the stock :) I like my AR that I built too, but the AK has taken 1st place in my books recently ;) Took her out to the desert today and just had a wonderful time.
