Recently individuals have been about twice as fast. But, they could shift the focus of their workforce around at any point.

your dates make no sense. If you purchased it on 10/9 and your check cashed on 10/26, then there is obviously no form 3 involved in your purchase... Did your dealer have it in stock??

Could've paid for it on 10/9, F3 filed about that time, F4 filed a week or two later and check cashed on 10/26, then F3 approved on 12/23...now just waiting for F4 approval.

I never filed form 4 before, mostly form 1 on efile.

How do you know that your paper form 4 is approved?

When your dealer calls you. Approved Form 4 gets mailed to the transferor.

Or if you are unlucky, it gets approved and the form that should have gone to your dealer is lost.  That happened to me last summer.  It had already been approved for a month by the time I called.  I ended up taking a certified copy to my dealer.  This is why many regular NFA buyers recommend calling after three months.

That's makes sense as well. At that time SS was filing the F4 two weeks after the F3, so having it mailed ~10/23 could easily result in a 10/26 cashed date.
