Before I contact the FFL, anyone get a call yet for a 3/23 further review??
Day 95 today

I got my call yesterday, same date. How'd you make out?

Just called them a few minutes ago -- still nothing. Day 96.

Day 74 on my P38. Figure I have another couple of weeks.

Day 55 on my Designated Collector app.

Day 88. Sadly you prob have atleast another month wait.

Hang in there, hopefully before the weekend.

Had a chance to speak with MSP a few weeks ago. Work related. They said that on 7/1 the new hires will start to offer help with more paperwork which will help with the wait. 15 more to add to the staff. Hopefully that will speed things up.

I'm not as stressed or anxious about this one as I was the first, or second or third ...purchase. It is just frustrating and almost comical because I had purchased another handgun from this FFL a week before - and I received the ND for that one a month ago.
I'm not going anywhere near the flaming threads over FFL's that release without MSP's ND - but I pick up a purchase at Shooters Discount on Saturday that I bought at the Timonium show -- 14 days, instead of 98 if this one other one comes thru by then.
I know where I'll be making future purchases.

MSP on June 22 were looking at April 1st and 2nd apps. Today on June 27th they were looking at April 5th and 6th apps. I have been calling there number at least 3 times a week ever since I bought my handgun.

That's good news, hopefully it helps the people that don't have 8th day release ffls

 

[Ranger Tom]

Have they been hired and trained?

81 days for me, now. This is ridiculous. Phileas Fogg circled the planet in less time than this.

FWIW, my wife did the online safety training a day or two ago and I noticed they no longer require you to cut off and mail in the top part of the form, so you'd think that they could shift the resources that were previously doing whatever they did with those records to processing apps.

Just got off the phone with MSP. My 4/4 application went in further review on 6/22. They are currently processing 4/5-4/6 for first reviews and 3/24 for secondary reviews. Any of you mathematicians have any estimates on how long my review will take?

 

[Poonbag]

I submitted paperwork on 4/13 and got the ND on wednesday. A little over 70 days. I was surprised as I thought I was getting it in July. Pretty Darn close.

More evidence for my "3D darts for dates at the morning tag-ups"theory

 

[namelessname120]

I still haven't received my glock and my papers were submitted 4/1.

Agreed. Definitely something like that.

4/9. according to google "how many days since april 9th 2013" today is day 80. 4 more days makes 12 weeks (7*12=84).

 

[ED O]

4/13 was my purchase and I am still waiting.

When I did mine back in February it was the same way, so it may have been like this for a while.

 

[pianodwarf]

I'm April 8th, so with some luck, maybe I'll get mine before the 4th of July holiday. There's no reason I should go into review, but of course that doesn't really mean anything.
