    Just spoke with my ATF rep this morning. She claims excessive backlogging equating to an 8-10 month delay.

    Do you mean you just called the ATF and asked? If so, that is a stock answer. Has been for quite some time.

    Pair of suppressors on a form 4 individual. Paperwork submitted around Nov 17, stamps came back today.

    I have 1 suppressor on an individual form 4 I did during deer season so I am hoping two weeks for me

    Then another two months later, too bad they can’t just give you all yours in line when your first stamp clears

    Finally received a certified copy of my Griffin Optimus approval, 3 months after it was approved. Emailed it to United Gun Shop. Hopefully they will accept it and let me pick up the dang thing. If not, I'm probably going to request a full refund or store credit from Silencer Shop. Might put it toward a Dead Air Odessa, ??? other dedicated 9mm suppressor, Q Trash Panda, or something that will suppress 45-70.

    Bought a SiCo Chimera on Friday for the SiCo BOGO ("GO" is a 45K) from SilencerShop via Engage Armament. Form 4 Trust, 2RP. Still waiting for the form 3 to clear.

    Prediction for posterity: NFA Tracker says 175 days for this kind of form. Assuming the form 3 takes five days, that's about six months... so I should theoretically be seeing this mid-to-late December. Depending on how fast the Octane 45K goes, probably late December or early January.

    Super jealous. That thing looks awesome and everything I've read has been positive. Let us know how it sounds. It's supposed to keep every type of ammo subsonic, right?

    Ported barrel. Similar to the lrm169 or hkmp5sd.

    Just got it. I’ll do a range report sometime soon. Maybe this weekend.
