    use that "contact the pros" or whatever button in the efiling system. They will just email you the form again without the DRAFT across.

    Great, looks like we are back up to 6 months again. Oh well, hopefully have thumper out of jail before Christmas.

    Shoot, when did you submit yours? Mine was the first submitted/cashed the first week of May. Initially my dealer was thinking September. Looking at nfatracker, I feel like i underestimated the amount of submissions. Definitely hoping I can still get my stamp approved before Christmas.

    Mine went in at the end of May. At the time the wait time was 3-4 months. About two weeks after I entered mine it went up to 5 months. Now it is at 6 months. Will hopefully have it by X-Mas.

    IIRC I had one SBR stamp come back in 2 months ?? Form 1 e-file. I guess I will be building suppressors during the snowy days and if the snow comes in like the rain is lately I will be keeping my plow in long barrel form! in between builds that is.

    You should stay off of ar15 forum, there are people there saying that after the end of April, you are looking at 9+ months and as much as 12-18 months for those who submitted in July. I think 6 months for May is very optimistic. I've got a buddy who submitted early February and is expecting another month.

    My purchase was mid May my check was cashed 6/1. I'm not expecting anything until my birthday in February.

    Oh take the fun out of it :D

    I submitted eFile and it went pending immediately in May. So, if my stars are in line (never are) and I can get some of that Peter Pan pixie dust, then I may see it by Nov-Dec. At least that is what BATFE is reporting. 6 months I believe on their recording.

    Will have to wait and see I guess. It is what it is. have plenty to play with while I wait for my eForm1

    ATF Site was down last Wednesday for maintenance and to allow them (ATF) to work unimpeded. Good news was that Jason Frushour re-sent the form about 2 hours after I left a message on his phone.

    Maybe with e-file it is a lot quicker. I am a form 4 paper submission. I feel your pain though, but the last couple of weeks have been about managing expectations for me. I was hoping 6 months, but my friend is now over 6 and he submitted in Feb.

    In July I put in for two more cans, one of them being a Warlock 2 for future kids to use with their first .22's. Wife just told me we have our first kid on the way. Wonder which will get here first?

    Congrats on the good news. The can should arrive in time for them to be old enough to be able to shoot with it.

    Just called in on my mid-February Form 4 and was told it was approved on August 3rd, so my stamp should be getting in to 2A any day now

    Good news, thanks for the update. I have a few from mid febuary as well, but haven't called yet.

    I don't know why both of yours took so long? The two F4s that I submitted in 2/4 & 2/5 were approved 5/5 & 6/3. Those were paper F4's as an individual.

    That's because, with all the stamps you got, they know you on a first name basis there!
