4/18 form 4 (supressor) dropped off @ MSP
4/29 CJIS letter
6/16 check with MSP. No problems, just not processed yet.

Until now, my form 4s have closely followed the CJIS letter. I see why you guys go the trust route.

MSP is appoaching ATF efficiency standards. Shame. They used to be so much better.

2 months already!?!? That's god-awful. MSP did mine in exactly 30 days a couple of months ago. Now I'm dreading my upcoming SBR purchase

 

[Bigpapa]

Glad I too went the trust route after hearing the MSP delays, hoping to have the stamps in 6-8 weeks.

 

[boatbiologist]

30 days? So the MSP has slipped to this?

I am trying to remain positive, but I am loosing confidence in the MSP. I hope my experience is not the normal way officer Everett(sp.?) conducts State business and my form 4s show up soon with an apology for the delay. The troopers I know would do no less.

...Unless he quit caring and decided to take a dump on one of the last law abiding segments of the public left.

Both SBR and can were approved this week!

Pending: 4-4-11
Approved: 6-16-11

Examiner: Nicole Dudash

All and all I'd say my first NFA experience really wasn't that bad.
More like a trip to the dentist for a cleaning rather than a root canal.

Was that with a trust?

When did you mail your forms to the ATF?

Individual.

 

[Oscar-Mike]

When did you mail your forms to the ATF?

Paperwork was sent first week in march. Total wait was just over 4 1/2 months.

 

[Oscar-Mike]

My MSP wait was three weeks. Seems like they are starting to take longer.

 

[Bigpapa]

My MSP wait was three weeks. Seems like they are starting to take longer.

From everything I'm reading MSP is the bottleneck right now. I ended up going with a trust and hope the BATFE will only hold me up 8 weeks.

Confirmed delivery to BATFE 6-13-11
Will update soon

Thanks. I mailed mine to the ATF on 3/23 so I'll expect approval in a couple weeks.......hopefully

Sent off 2 Form 4 (Supressors, LLC) on February 22nd....we'll see how quickly this goes

3. Transferee: Trust
4. Forms Sent: 2/22/2011
5. Check Cashed: 3/1/2011
6. Pending Date: 4/4/2011 Pending
7. Examiner Name: William Shipman
8. Approved Date: 4/27/2011
9. Stamp Received: 6/21/2011

The second stamp got "lost in the mail"

My guidance from the ATF was to "wait 30 days and then contact us and request we resend it certified mail"

Then, I sent them correspondence via Priority mail asking them exactly that.

Yesterday I received in the mail my paperwork at MY ADDRESS standard mail, not Certified. It was sent to me, not the SOT's address like the original stamp SHOULD have gone to.

I paid the stamp instead of waiting several more months to wait for the suppressor as I knew we were getting our Class2/3 license (we're approved on July 1 2011) soon. It ended up taking all of a week short of being able to transfer it dealer/dealer and save the $200 tax stamp

[IlikeNFA]

I am +100 days on a form 2

Christ...I can't catch a break on this one. I am now +85 days on the form 3. Its going to be over a year, after the form 4's, until I get these items.

What are you waiting on? If its a Form 3 to your dealer and its taken 85+ days the transaction may be in "problem status". It is exceptionally rare for a good Form 3 to take that long.

Mine took middle of January to middle of April to transfer from out of state individual to my dealer.
