I'm getting up there in time too. What congress critter do you call? Would Burr or Tillis actually help or pretend they're too busy? I know my local rep David Price-D ain't gonna lift a finger for me in this issue.
E File form 4's are showing up!
- Thread starter Mr.Gadget
- Start date
so I called ATF,,,, waste of time
my application is still in the "pending" category, which means it's not assigned yet for action
154 days and not assigned
90 days my arse and I don't believe any of the other data that says folks are getting it done sooner

All mine were marked pending in the past.
Some showed pending I would call on them, pending on Friday then approved on Monday.
If I recall pending just shows it is in the works.

according to the message that talks when you call them (before you go on hold) pending means, and I quote, "pending means your case has not been assigned"

I got the same thing when I called in. It was always "pending" until it was just magically approved. Never changed status on either of the two I bought until they were approved. The agent I talked to said that pending is a good thing as it means there's no problem, its just slow. If there was a problem they would tell you and obviously they'll tell you its approved when that time comes.
The frustrating part with the old process was when they show its been approved for weeks but they hadnt actually mailed out the tax stamp. Now its all electronic and fairly instant. My buddies efile form 4 was approved and signed and he got a call from his dealer the same day to come get it.

This is a case where no news is bad news!
Still waiting.
And longer weight than the last 6 done on paper!
Should have never changed and then got a real stamp.
My next will be back to paper!

Got email last week, 159 days on the efile. Dealer said paper form 4s running 14-16 months.
Mr.Gadget
Old Mossy Horns
I have never had a paper form run that long.
Not that is does not happen but not for me so far.
My last forms early in the year the longest was 5 months.
My dealers I have use have seen some go 12 or longer but not the norm at all.
Most were trusts with many people on them.
I am at 175 days today

I'm beginning to wonder if I will get my new hunting suppressor back in time to hunt!
After all they said only 90 days!

Gives me hope at least. I've been meaning to get one for my M&P 15/22 but the wait times turn me off of it every time.
approved today - exactly 6 months from date of submission/payment online (Feb 18),,,,,

Anybody got their Silencerco EVO yet for review? I did the e form for one in April. Obviously I haven’t gotten it back yet. Just wondering how it is. It will be my first one for a centerfire rifle.
Anyone else get the email today from ATF about the pay.gov scheduled maintenance. I got all excited for about 5 seconds until I opened the email.
Yes
I have mine. It’s great. Very quiet. Almost identical in performance to the omega in sound reduction.

Thats what I was wanting to know. SS is giving a 100s gift card now with the evo.
Was thinking about another so I had my two dedicated hunting combos and just leave them direct thread.

That’s not good news for me. I ordered my efile in June…. Was hoping to have it by the end of October

When I got my first in 2010ish, they told me the best thing I can do is pay and forget. That’s the best advice one can possibly get. The wait times have been pretty much identical from then to last year on all of my stuff.

I got my last one two weeks ago. Govt money came out 8/11/21.
My neighbor just got his first one last Friday. His was done electronically first week of March.

I have a question for you, I’ve heard for years that atf would randomly show up to inspect your NFA items and basically walk into your home like they owned the place. While I know you have to provide the item if asked so that you can demonstrate it’s still in your possession, have you ever heard of this happening? I don’t care about providing the NFA item for inspection but I’m not keen on anyone, even agents walking into my home.

The ATF will not show up at your door and they can not enter your home/property without a search warrant. The ATF can olny randomly inspect FFL's during their posted business hours.

That’s good.:.. I’d always thought the entry without warrant was suspect but it was guys in the gun business that always talked about it, granted they didn’t mess with the NFA side of things

I have accepted the fact that I may not even have this for hunting season lol. Hopefully by the end of the season, but was hoping to have it to start the season. Government programs, I should have known better.

I have a dead air sandman L and a surefire 7.62, I recommend the sandman over the surefire. Both have been shot on rifles from 260 to 300 win mag.
Silencerco Evo if you don't need full auto. The silencerco 46 hybrid and the 36M are great options also.
