Glad they threw you a bone with that 96er, 374 is outrageous.
One approved yesterday, the other was approved this morning. No doubt Senators office got this moving.

Got the email this morning at about 10:30am while at work, but didn't notice it. Then my dealer texted me and told me it was back, so I swung by after work and picked it up. The rest of them should be following shortly (the last 3 are all 20-30 days apart).

*** Also, just a reminder, my dealer is a machine gun range, so I get to use my cans while waiting on the stamps, so they always look rough/well-loved by the time I get them, because I’ve already put like 500-1,500 rounds through them before I get to take them home. The finishes always come perfect from the factory. They just develop some scratches and wear marks over time. ***

Quick questions for the masses. For those of you who have reached out to your congressman what luck have you had getting them to move the process along?

I have never reached out to my congressman, but on the last can I had approved, once I started seeing others getting approved that were submitted a month or two after mine I emailed [email protected] and asked for a status update. It was approved 2 hours later. Maybe it was a coincidence but I highly doubt it.

From what I've seen and myself included , it has a pretty high success rate
At what point are you all requesting assistance from them? 200-300 day mark?
I think most wait until they are at 300 days or more before they complain.

I have 4 submitted 2/17/23. Trust Silencershop. Still waiting.
I have been doing this a long time. Never waited less than 5 months+ and have some that were much longer................always wondered why it can't be simpler once you already ATF goodies. Simply check for no felonies, take my extortion money and approve.
I love government bullshit!

Purchased and completed my application today (9/21/2023) for Rugged Obsidian 9 and Otter Creek Labs Hydrogen-L 7.62...Now to wait for the Certification process to be completed. Form 1 for my 300BO SBR will be submitted tomorrow.

Both good choices. I have an Obsidian 45 and it's a great pistol can! I also have 4 OCL cans (3 Hydrogens - 2x S, 1x L) and a Polonium 5.56 can. My Polonium stamp just came back Monday. Still waiting on my Hydro-S 6.5mm to come back (it will be next). You'll love that Hydro-L. It's a really impressive can.
Looking forward to putting the Hydrogen-L on my 300BO SBR.
I have done a crap-ton of research and given the $ parameters I could tolerate (lol), the OCL Hydrogen-L fits the bill quite well. For pistol, the Obsidian 9 is a pretty decent can and should give my M17 a nice sound with the AAC 147g subs.
The 'disease' has taken hold...hopefully I can hold off on more for a while. Have an LR308, an M4 and my long-range gun (7RM) that eventually I want to put cans on.
Definitely throw an OCL Polonium 5.56 on that M4 (video of it in action on mine a few posts up). The Hydrogen-S 7.62 will also do well on the LR308, and your Hydro-L 7.62 will sound great on the 7mm RemMag. It will also tame the recoil noticeably, as well. I have some videos on my YT channel showing the Hydro-L on a couple of my 7mm RemMags and other rifles, you should check them out.
If you look up a few posts I added one of my YT videos into the post about my Polonium stamp coming back on Monday, and you can follow the link from there to my channel. Feel free to sub and hit the like button if you want. Every little bit helps with how hard YT hammers us small channels for gun content.

Since I am using ASR muzzle breaks on my AR's, my Hydrogen-L will definitely be used on both the 300BO and the LR308 (until I can buy another can for the LR308). I even put a 1/2x28 to 5/8x24 thread adapter on my M4, so I could buy the same ASR muzzle break for my rifles.
For my 7RM (Sako S20), I currently have the Sako muzzle break on it and have not felt much, if any, recoil. LOVE shooting that rifle; freakin accurate as hell out to 300yds (longest I've been able to shoot with it so far. Longer range was closed for some major reno this summer. BOOOOOOO).
My desire for the 7RM is to put a TBAC Magnus on that rifle...but time will tell. Technology is always advancing so who knows what might be available when I am ready to buy and put the can it it's holding pattern.
I have a Magnus HUB, as well…. There’s a couple vids of it on there already. Still waiting on the stamp. My range is my SOT, so I can use them while waiting.

Maybe things are finally starting to pickup…
While everyone else was seeing 200-230, it took 243 for my Polo stamp. My Hydrogen-S 6.5 will be next, and should be any day now. The last 3 I have pending were all 20-30 days apart on certs, so they should start rolling in very soon.
Well…I really manifested that into existence!Maybe things are finally starting to pickup…

Got a call about an hour ago that my Hydro-S 6.5mm stamp just came back. Checked the email, and sure enough, it was there. Won’t be able up pick it up today, but will grab it tomorrow on my way home from work, and post pics.

You'll get it the day the RC3 releases
This is typically my luck with things... Back when I was a Poor many years ago, when I finally got the cash to buy my MagnetoSpeed v2, I was so excited, and I bought it when I got paid that Friday! No shit, 1 or 2 weeks later they announced the MSv3... I was so pissed, because the price was the exact same.You'll get it the day the RC3 releases
RC3 has been leaked. Supposedly releasing on October 12 I think I read. That being said, my second RC2 just got out of jail a couple weeks ago so perfect timing. From what I’m reading the RC3 will be quite a bit more money, but my larping might require it. Lol
If you are over 200 days then check your NICS status with the FBI. I finally checked and found my was on hold since April then quickly resolved after the inquiry. All forms were approved within a week after NICS cleared.

I like seeing your individual time at 167 days. I’m at 165 on an individual. Perhaps they’re almost done infringing on my rights. Until next time of course.
Hmmm. I better call then. Who did you call to check? I mean did you call atf first or a fbi number ?
I emailed the ATF first then FBI but I would tell the everyone to start with the FBI as the NICS have to clear before the ATF can do anything. This is the hardest part, send a cordial email to [email protected] with your control number. May take a couple days to respond but they do. If you don’t receive the approval within a week or so then email [email protected] with you control number.
Updated pics when I got it home after work…Well…I really manifested that into existence!

I'm at 132. We have roughly another 100+ days on avg. But we may get lucky, lol!
That's exactly what happened to me....found out I was on FBI NICS hold for 3 fucking months and no, there is zero contact info for ATF NICS transactions. Needed to engage my Senator's office. FBI fucking sucks.
How'd you get the FBI to finally move on your NICS check? If you are Declined, you can appeal. Delay...you have no formal inquiry/recourse process. Ooops, just saw your follow on post. Where did you find the [email protected] address? I couldn't find anything like that.
And I'm a former USAF officer, sec clearances both mil and civ, and zero criminal record.
So fuck the FBI...I applied for a UPIN, got it, and will use it for future transactions. We'll see what their miserable excuses for delays are after that.

Went from 280+ days to 250 now down to 207. Have one more in time out (for now). Maybe moving in the right direction?
