    I got curious, and called to check my status today.

    My form 4 transactions went pending June 13th. Something tells me; this examiner reassignment, is gumming up the works.

    Isn't pending to approved roughly 2 - 2.5 months +/- ?

    My check went in 8/6/11 and I am still waiting for it to clear.

    Dave

    Should be any day now. Just from looking at NFATracker.com most checks are cashed within 2 weeks. In fact, most are cashed within 3 days of arrival.

    Is this for your AR 9mm SBR build?

    Does anyone just what it is they do that takes so long? I would think in the age of computers, you could pretty much find out all you need to know in 5 minutes.

    For Trusts not sure but for individuals its the fingerprint cards. From what I understand obver 100K fingerprint cards come in to FBI and ATF every day.

    I dont think their systems are as efficient or automated as they can or should be.

    It was in stock... he also has a Titanium 5.56 which will probably be my wife's soon. And as soon as he gets one, I would like to procure the 7.62 Titanium as well... you know, for the children's tender ears! :brows:
