Has anyone tried to form 3 a can from a dealer to dealer in last couple weeks? I have 2 cans ordered late Sept and my dealer still hasn't seen anything. I know form 3's in the past could be a while but for the last two years its been days not weeks.

Any idea if the shutdown is slowing down Form 3 and Possibly Form 1 transfers?

according to my LGS its affecting processing of all forms of all stripes, from end user F1/F4 to the more interesting ones. According to the dudes who I shoot with it's even affecting defense contractors (they'd know, many of them work in that sector)

Yes @DeathBeforeDismount it is effecting everyone. I have a few coming from Milehigh, and I’m an FFL-SOT. Been paid for for weeks, they have a stack of forms there waiting on approval however nothing is moving atm.

But yes, prior to the gov shutdown, I averaged 3 days on a transfer. Some took 1 day, some took 6.
 
I submitted a Form 1 two days prior to the shutdown - USPS showed delivery of the paperwork the day of the shutdown - and - haven't heard anything since. My Form 1's are usually approved within a couple of days.
So, waiting.............. 🙏
