Suppressors Sent my Form 4 Certified return receipt requested = no receipt after 2 weeks

[minn_wild1]

I hope I didn't screw up by sending in my Form 4 by certified mail with a return receipt. I sent the LEO copy on the same day and got the receipt back 4 days later. It's been 16 days since I mailed them and the USPS tracking says that it is still in route. I'm wondering if the ATF will sign for it. Has anyone else sent theirs with the return receipt request?

From everything I’ve heard, anything with signature confirmation will be returned as undeliverable. I send mine Priority Express and waive the signature requirement. That will tell you when it’s collected from the PO Box.

For some reason them government types hate to sign for anything. I would wait till after the holidays and check again, they will get to it...

I did and was signed for in about 3 days via certified letter, and got the approval in 3 months.

I'm looking to do this for an SBR. Should I do it on my own or use the local gunshop?

Gun shop especially if you haven’t filled out a form before as any error and it’s back to square one again.

Yes, form 4s need to be sent to Portland.

Unfortunately, my dealer filled out the paperwork and sent it to me with the mailing address already on the forms. That was the only thing I didn't triple check for accuracy and it got me.... Damn....
