Suppressors Form 4 wait time

I called 2 days ago on mine.

Check Cashed: 10/20/18
Pending Date: 10/23/18

I asked if it had at least been assigned to an examiner and was told that it still had not. In essence, application has been sitting in a box for 9 months with no progress at all! You’ve got to love bureaucracy if you think that is ok!

Hopefully a “miracle” occurs soon!

Mine got approved later the same day that I called apparently. Exactly 300 days from when they cashed my check.

Form 4 Individual Paper
Check cashed 09-26-18
Approved 07-23-19
Stamp at dealer 07-29-19
 
2 Cans bought at the same time last summer (SiCO deal).

Form 4 Trust
checks cashed 1 day apart from each other. 7/27/2018 and 7/28/2018
received both stamps today. Damn near exactly 1 year to the day after checks cashed.

which state your in.
 
Purchase 10/9/18

Form 4 individual on tbac paper submission.

Never called to see what check cash date was since dealer takes care of payment as part of purchase and never checked on progress to see when it went pending.

Stamp at dealer 7/31/19

295 days purchased to stamp at dealer

Form 1 approved july 31. Spent 1 hr today milling and laser engraving. Suppressor complete.

Still waiting form 4
 
<chuckle> A secret clearance is a joke (hell, a Bn C.O. can grant one on a verbal). It's nothing more than a quick background scan...but I get what you're saying.
 
For those of you looking for Form 1 efile suppressor kits;) See my review I just posted up

Just an fyi, they are a bit backlogged on the drill fixtures but are working to catch up on them.

Ummmm.....I think you mean 2019 don't you Steve? :ROFLMAO: It's hard to get one approved a month before it's pending.
 
358 days and counting on a form 4 trust... ugh... my dislike of big government is growing daily

Approved on a Sunday?
 
That’s what the lady said. I called her yesterday and she said, “well I’ve got some good news. Your form 4 was approved yesterday 8/4/19.”
Then proceeded to tell me the form should arrive in about 10 days but could take up to 30.

Guess this is why they havent gone to Eform....everyone wants weekend overtime.
 
Mine came in a few days ago, 363 days from filing to stamp in hand - form 4 trust.
 
I have 2 can stamps coming.
Trust
Ordered on 9/4/18
Cashed 9/22/18 according to my bank (9/24/18)
As of 7/23/19 - “still processing” and the lady said about 1 year from check cashing to receiving a stamp is typical right now.
Hopefully any day now.
 
I called today and learned that 2 of my cans (Dead Air Mask and Ghost) were just approved 11Aug, these were purchased at my dealer last year 6Sept.

So now to wait for the stamps to arrive.

My Sandman from October 2018 is still pending though.
 
Form 4, trust.

Filled out on Aug. 9 2019... STILL WAITING!!!

Seriously, they're saying 8 months in WA FWIW. About average I guess. I won't pester them unless it goes over ten months though.
 
TBAC 338 Ultra paid in full w/50% off cert on 7/22/19. It won't have a serial number until January 2020, I'll be stoked if I have it in my possession by the first quarter of 2021....
 
I called again today and my forms are still in processing. Checks cashed on 9/22/18.

Filled out Form 4 and paid for stamp one year ago today, check cached 8/27/18, still no stamp. My CCW was renewed in the past month so I think I'm still not a felon.
