Suppressors Form 4 wait time

[Baron23]

This is absolute truth of how fucked up and careless the BATFE and the FBI is still to this day. It sucks for people that have to wait a whole year just to find out that they’re sharing a name with someone that has a massive or even simple criminal record. They won’t push to find out who’s who, YOU have to do the leg work and prove yourself. And you guys that have pushed hard to get extra benefits through the VA, you’re 100% flagged and targeted for mental illness denials. It’s fucking bullshit…..

Former mil officer, sec clearances as mil and civ, zero criminal record....and still got put on endless delays by NICS.

So, I got a UPIN (which was approved in less than a day) and last NICS check went thru like crap thru a goose.

Something to consider.

They could literally process them in 5 to 15 minutes (same as a NICS check for a gun purchase), but they don’t… It’s called government, bureaucracy, and job security.

In addition to 4 day work weeks averaging 4 hrs/day...

 

[mark5pt56]

This is what makes no sense to me is I have a fm4 submitted a week later for a factory SBR, one would think they would see it and process at the same time?

Over a year. WTF!
No rhyme or reason as to the order in which these get approved.

Submitted 1/18/23 still waiting. I have 4 more submitted after that. They all say delayed NTN

 

[Ironman1959]

The ATF was making sure you knew you were actually approved and good to go!

I got the same notice. Hmmmm

Certified today. We will see how long this one goes. My last two eform 4s went 6 and 8 months.

How many do you need to be in the running for a “batch approval?”

 

[black5.3]

I have a form 1 pending since 09/01/2023…..

There’s no rule, rhyme, or reason. Could be just two.

I had one form 1 approved less than 30 days back December 23. Certified and submitted another first week of January and still pending. Like everyone is saying, no rhyme or reason to the process. Typical federal government work.

I have a rifle that I've been holding off using for deer until I got this can to go with it.

Can approved 11/11, firearm deer season opens 11/15.

 

[Guns&WhiteWater]

Same happened to me. Notified 2 months later by silencer shop

Better than my Silencer Shop notification. They notified me that they made a mistake and I lost nine months of waiting.

Had that happen once, but it was only 4-5 months. It was the dealers fault.

But, if the ATF makes a mistake, they’ll turn that around in under a week, including snail mail both ways…

Tbac 338 SR G2 approved today 176 days. Had a flow 762 submitted the same day hopefully I get it back later today or tomorrow so I can make only one FFL trip.

Gimme that shit.

You hear nothing but cycle without ear pro with sub 147's and a #27 90⁰ locking piece. It's better than what I wanted. Money well spent.

Did the ATF hire a bunch of folks to process forms instead of assigning all new hires to shoot our dogs?
