I just had a form 4 individual come back in roughly 6 weeks. o_O

I bought 2 Dead air's from the same dealer. My dead air Nomad 30, paper work submitted June 13, 2019 and Dead air mask, paperwork submitted Jan 9, 2020, both come back the same day. Dealer called Feb 24, 2020 to say I could come pick them up. Both form 4 individual. My dealer said he had 24 stamps show up the same day, (Feb 24, 2020) that dated from early Jan 20, to Feb 19.

I did the paperwork and submitted 4 items, Apr 2019, only the one has the stamp returned so far. All paperwork mailed the same day. Go figure. Hopefully the rest shows soon!

Oooooo my check was cashed on the 16th of January. This further confirms what my dealer told me. Form 4 Indi's are coming back fast, still. Lets see if my Individual Form 4 beats my Form 1 submission.

My Form 1s are still coming back at 30 days or less, but if Form 4s keep coming back this quick, I'm going to go broke.

I'm happy to have my can of course, but for what it's worth, I think it's total bullshit that the ATF is processing newly submitted applications rather than doubling down on the existing ones.
 
Dead Air Nomad-30
Form 4 Individual
Purchased - 10/18/2019
Check Cashed - 10/23/2019
Approved - 3/2/2020 (131 days)
Stamp in hand - 3/11/2020

This is my first suppressor, can’t wait to get out and mess with it this weekend.
 
i hope you're right. it'd be nice if all these agents working from home really blast though the backlog but somehow it's doubtful. COVID-19 may really slow things down.

I received an email this past weekend from American Suppressor Association, who spoke to the ATF about approvals during this time. At this time, they said they're still working at normal pace and have preparations to allow employees to work from home, should a quarantine go into effect.

I'm sure that is subject to change.

Order placed @ Capitol Armory 12/24/2018
Forms completed / mailed 1/31/2019
Stamp approved 2/7/2020
Shipped 2/27/2020
At my door 3/2/2020

434 days from placing order to receipt.
372 days from form submission to approval.

To be fair, the month between ordering and sending the paperwork was mostly my fault. I work M-Th, my wife works F-Sun, and am still active USAR, so I had to carefully pick my weekend.

WTF. Mine was submitted January 22nd and they still haven't cashed the 2 checks. What would you guys do?
If they haven't cashed your checks by now either they never got them or they got lost. You definitely want to call them Monday and I'd call my dealer to make sure they actually submitted my paperwork. We've seen on this site several times where the dealer did not submit the paperwork.
