I should just unsubscribe from this thread. I nearly forgot I was waiting for something for the first month. Every time I see this thread pop up I'm in agony...

You betcha!

So my form 4 was approved on January 15 and no call from the dealer yet... Around how long does it take from approval to the pick up call? My other ones were 5-6 days after approval.

Really depends on when the ATF mailed it back to the dealer. Even though it was approved on the 15th they might not have put it in the mail for a few days. Add in the delays with the postal service due to the storm. I haven't gotten mail since last Friday honestly.

It is hard to tell, I see most of the form 1 or 4 (not e file) people received it within a week after approved. I talked to the examiner a month ago, they said it will be mailed within 10 business day, but mine I got it 18 days later.

Learned something and wanted to pass it along.

You can not use a PO Box for the address for a Class III item, you must use a physical address; House Number and Street name....

Learned this the hard way, received a letter from ATF yesterday, guess I will be visiting the FFL that processed my paperwork to make the corrections and resending the paperwork back to ATF for processing.

My check was cashed on August 18, 2015. Guess my processing time will be in the 6 plus month time frame....

Well my Form 4 Trust got approved on Jan 20th. Still has not shown up at the dealer. Hoping it is just the snow storm that is delaying its arrival.

I bought my can back in July '15 and just got the paperwork back yesterday. I used a NFA trust so I don't know if that makes any difference.

Sundazes · Feb 3, 2016

Talk about fast. I sent in a F4 on sat 1/30 via priority mail. The check (ACH) hit my account today the 3rd. They received it Monday the 1st.
I guess I wont see that stamp until next fall. Now if the ones from last summer and fall would be approved....

Form 1 SBR e-file/trust
Submitted 11/24/2015
Approved 2/10/2016

cap6888 · Feb 11, 2016

Form 1 SBR e-file/trust
Submitted 11/20/2015
Approved 2/11/2016

Hopefully the one I submitted on 12/22 isn't far behind. But now I have to find time to get my newly approved SBR to the engraver before I assemble it. And I don't have a free day until March. Boo.

TacSol Axiom suppressor on Form 4 Trust:

Pending: Sept 1, 2015
Approved: Jan 20, 2016

Hopefully picking it up this weekend.

Hawkeye · Feb 11, 2016

You guys are giving me hope!

If they keep up that rate, my SBR should be ready at the end of March, and maybe my suppressor by May.

Time to get some more stuff filed.

FORM 1 SBR

Submitted Nov 17
Approved Feb 11

86 days total

I also have a FORM 1 suppressor I submitted on the same date that is still pending

rmbstyle · Feb 11, 2016

Anyone else waiting on approvals from Jan 16 and earlier? I still have a Jan 15 approval that I have not received....

ar15dave · Feb 11, 2016

I have a couple of 5320.20s in. Hoping they don't take long. Last batch took a month and a half to get approved. But, that was a year ago.

I just got 4 back last week. They took 4 weeks.
