It appears forms with checks cashed in early March are now moving to pending. Mine was cashed 3/9/12 and my form 4 went pending today. Now time to forget about this thing until at least October

Why so long?  Is that what they are taking?  Is this your first?

Six month wait puts it at the end of September + mail time = October

Not to mention the wait times are getting longer and longer as each month passes. It wouldn't even surprise me if I do not see it until December at their current pace at the NFA branch.

I have another form I need to send out. I just keep sending them. Then, every month or so I get one back. Makes me feel better about it anyway.

Time wise, each form 1/4 is like the first! I'm a multiple stamp holder also(4 to 6 or more) and my Mk 760 has still been in my FFL's safe for over 6 months....

My check was posted at the bank on 9/29 and the form 4 arrived at the gun shop 4/4 and I picked up the mk760 today. Might get a chance to take it out next weekend!

It was cashed a few days ago.  When I posted that, it was pending in my account as an EFT.

For the record, I've never called NFA branch in 12 years that I've been sending forms :) :)

All 3 of mine have been cashed within 1 week in my 2 yrs of purchasing NFA items.  Now, no idea on when they go pending.....

Yea, I mailed out a Form 4 for a RDIAS on Feb. 28th, and the check was cash on March 6th.  When I called on Thursday it still had not gone pending...jesus.  Hopefully on Monday it has.  I really want to enjoy that RDIAS over Christmas

*Edit*

Called today. Finally went pending!!!

Mailed 2/28
Cashed 3/6
Pending 4/6

I have heard that they are slower with MGs many times though, but I never noticed it before..  maybe?

I'm on the same boat as you. Sent same time don't know when it was receieved (dealer was supposedly sent it on march 20 when I bought the can) but check cashed on 4/3/12.

So next is pending so I'm guessing 5/3/12 will be pending by then. I'm thinking I'll call end of may to see if it's pending then again mid August.

An agency friend told me that the wait time is likely going to be 7-8 months come summer.

According to NFA Wait Time Calculator for a check cashed 3-30-12 we're looking at it being delivered by Santa.  If we assume 22 days to go pending from check cashing date, we're looking at January.  Yeehaw...

If the calculator is true, then we are looking at a 10-month wait process now.....

Yup.  Kinda exciting in a rather depressing way.

First doesn't matter.  You don't get to the front of the line if you have done this before.

I have been doing the same thing.  I have been noticing though, that if one comes back to me, then one that I mailed out exactly a month after will usually take about a month and a week after, then after that, even longer.  It's really obvious things are getting backed up BAD.

Edit - I am thinking December or January now but was hoping before the election. A second term of this President will be an attack on the 2nd, and the alternative persumptive Republican nominee signed a permanent AWB in MA as Governor. It doesn't look good either way in my opinion. Better buy what you can now and get your forms in. With these fools running the country an SBR could get as valuable as an MG someday.
