Can’t really blame them IMO: you are a “captive” customer (i.e. done deal) to whom they are providing a service albeit at a price.
Their other customers come first…which is understandable (INO). IOW don’t sweat it or take your transfers elsewhere and see if they are any better and the additional travel time is worth it. |

Quoted: There's a dealer that I've gone through here that is a fairly larger dealer class 3 dealer - SS shop kiosk top tier shop. I have bought 4 suppressors through them because of this - the kiosk makes buying it easier, but now that e-forns is live I am looking to branch out to other shops. Reason being is that whenever my tax stamp has arrived, whenever I go to show up to pickup the can, it takes damn near an hour and a half for them to fuck around with everything. Every, damn, time. I'm to the point that my time is more important than going in to just wait. Their employees don't seem to even want to process the pickups that I've done - they basically fuck around helping other customers, while ignoring me until they get everyone taken care of then come back to help me. I'm over it. How long has it usually taken you to process and pickup your can from your FFL once the tax stamp is approved? Just trying to find out if my experience is normal or not. You've already waited many moons for the AFT to waste your life before you can enjoy your can and now you're going to complain about an hour and a half? Go sit in the corner and play sudoku on your phone or something until the gunshop employees are done handling customers. The world doesn't revolve around you, Karen. |

Yeah, and I have a problem with that because they are making money off of my transaction - yet they don't seem to give a rip to make my experience as painless as possible. I am going to find another dealer, was just curious to know if other had similar experiences when picking up your cans. |

AIM has handled all my nfa transfers. Longest was 20 minutes (they were super busy), shortest was 6-7 minutes. They do a great job, Brian runs a good business.

My guy runs a busy range at the same time. Its just him and his mom running the show as his dad has gotten too old and retired. He's tried to get reliable help but with the recent events of the past few years its been hard for him to get someone willing to work outside in the heat, do some manual labor as outdoor ranges require maintaining etc....... Guess the Govt paying people to "not" work didn't help either.
In other words I try and pick a day in the middle of the week vs the weekend where I know they are going to be ridiculously busy when purchasing or picking one up. I'm also a patient guy and plan ahead accordingly knowing it might not be a 15 min in and out process which it has been for a few of them but usually is not the case. |

It should be first come first serve. You are paying for this service and they get a cut from SS. It's not a free favor for a friend.

I'd go to a different dealer that understands customer service. I've never had this issue though. It's always been in and out. My problem lately was on the eF4 front end certify nonsense. I switched to a different dealer and solved that. |

I had a dealer "lose" my integral 10/22 in his safe for a week when my stamp came in and he was a dick about it. It came with a hard case and when I got home I pealed back the foam in the case and there were bunch of parts for some other guys gun in it. I don't go there any more.

'Lose' as in you show up and he says he can't find it and you leave empty handed and have to wait a week? Fuck that. I'm a pretty reasonable guy but I wouldn't have left until he 'found' it. |

Quoted: There's a dealer that I've gone through here that is a fairly larger dealer class 3 dealer - SS shop kiosk top tier shop. There are plenty of Silencer Shop Powered By dealers.......you can use any one of them in your state to receive your silencer. I have bought 4 suppressors through them because of this - the kiosk makes buying it easier, No it scans your fingerprints once. After that you never need to visit that dealer or his kiosk again. but now that e-forns is live I am looking to branch out to other shops. One has nothing to do with the other.

WTF does this have to do with anything? OP is a customer like any other. Silencer Shop is a distributor that can take direct orders from customers, the dealer setting the pricing. |

Any gun shop taking an hour and a half to complete a transaction aint going to be in business very long. With NFA, there is just filling out the 4473 and going home. NICS check was already completed before the tax stamp was affixed. |

I’m I mis reading the course of events..?
Customers previously in the store before you..? - quote- "they basically fuck around helping other customers, while ignoring me until they get everyone taken care of then come back to help me". JFC..well aren’t you special..? Yes. They are taking care of customers that walked in the door before you. If you happened to show up and several people are there ahead of you then your options are: Wait, comeback later, whine like a little bitch on Arfcom you are never using them again. I guess next time try tears and stomping your feet ! Having managed a very busy FFL previously. Just because I acknowledge you as a previous customer does mean I drop the next customer in line or the one I’m talking with, others waiting on service or a question answered. If they are out of employees to help you specifically because…every fucking ‘employee is busy ? WTF did you expect ? You sound like a wonderful customer !  Attached File |

He actually didn’t state which order the customers arrived in but it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out he’s probably upset because the staff isn’t doing it on a first come, first served basis. |

It normally takes less than 10 mins with Quiet Riot Firearms. Most of the time is taken up by me filling out the 4473. Great folks at QRF.
