    Still haven't heard on my 1/13 paperwork, but hoping any day now. I did email MSP yesterday to ask the status of my collectors application. They responded by saying that collectors applications are now taking 5 months to process. Now that's utterly ridiculous!

    I was looking at an M11-A1 at the silver spring Atlantic guns and they told me the paperwork takes roughly a month to go though now a days. Not sure how accurate that is but they've never lead me astray yet.

    The email mentioned above came last night. This morning I received a second email stating that my application was approved on 2/5 and my letter was mailed today. :lol:

    So glad I escaped Maryland. Went in to a local shop to do the paperwork for an SP2022 and was told it would be an 8 to 10 day turn-around before I can pick it up. No stupid MSP approval, no ridiculously long wait times. God bless Colorado. :D

    That's why I'm getting while the getting is good. I'm not too worried about Colorado getting all Kalifornicated... yet. But I am keeping an eye on developments. Although the state has become more liberal over the years, it's hard to imagine all the gun owners here would simply bend over and take it. To be continued...

    What a good number to see on my phone. The gun shop!!! My 1/15 came back

    Finally a 1/15 after so many days. I have a feeling my 1/17 paper work is not going to come back until the middle of next week.

    I think the two factors at play here is the MSP is doing them in no particular order but in blocks of a five day span. The other factor is when you assumed the paper work was summited and when your FFL actually sent it in.

    I assume my paper work was summited on the 17th but for all I know it was submitted a day or two later.
