I live in Lake County and am interested in attempting to obtain tax stamps/approval to own a SBR. Has anyone had any luck recently (past 6 months) in Lake County? If so, any suggestions on whom I should reach out to first for getting the paperwork signed off on? Any and all suggestions for the Lake County area would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I went to the Lincolnshire police department and asked the chief Leo for a sign off. He had no issue at all and signed my form 1 on the spot. He said I was the first resident to ever ask him to sign a form 1. I submitted my paperwork and hopefully I get my stamp. I hope this helps anyone in lake county.

Did I miss something, are SBR allowed in Lake County?  Or it through a C&R license?

You will have to have a C&R.

Is a Form 1 not acceptable? Nothing I read on the forums or interwebz indicated that a correctly executed Form 1 is not acceptable. I hope I didn't just waste a large amount of time sending in all the Form 1 materials. I already have a C&R so I assume I didn't need to send a copy of it in with my Form 1.

Form 1 is needed but so is a C&R FFL.  You have to enter your C&R number (and i include a photocopy of my C&R license) on the Form 1.  They will mail you the Form 1 back if you have already submitted it.  The C&R requirement was enacted in Jan 2013; i submitted my Form 1 in Oct. 2012 but even though it was submitted prior to the C&R requirement, my Form 1 was returned to me.  It took me 6-8 weeks or so to get my C&R which is good for 3 years.

Thank you for the follow up info about the C&R. So  my likely scenario is the my Form 1 will be returned for corrective action. At that point I can just fill in my C&R info and return the Form 1 with a copy of my license. All should be good at that point with the ATF? Will the return of my Form 1 for corrective action cause my application to start over from scratch (as far as the waiting period) or when I submit the corrected Form 1 will the approval process continue?

In my experience you will continue with the approval process once you submit your Form 1 with the C&R info which should only cost you a few weeks time overall.  Mine took 10 months in 2012-2013 and that included the time it took for them to mail my form 1 back to me and have me wait to obtain the C&R license.  I'm hearing many people are getting theirs in less than 6 months.  My problem is that my LEO doesn't have the blue finger print cards so i have to order them before i submit 2 more for SBR (already had leo signoff).  Once i get the fingerprinting done i'll be good to go and i'm hoping for a 6 month time frame before i get my stamp.
