Your timeframe was almost identical to mine.
Mine was a trust but my dealer said that his experience is that at present trusts are coming back just as fast as individual.

 

[jrpilot]

Thats great.

I have officially entered FBI background check purgatory.
Form 4 Individual check cashed on 3/6/18.

 

[stalwart300]

Should be filing paper work Thursday or Friday... holding my breath that it doesn't take 7 to 12 months.

 

[CUBUFF89]

Just be sure to work with a dealer that really knows how to fill out the paperwork. If you do it'll go more smoothly with the examiner and you'll get your can more quickly.

And don't hold your breath too long or you'll turn blue!

 

[stalwart300]

The dealer I use is great and knows the ins and outs. The problem is the wait. ?

My Trust purchased a Crux ArchAngel 338 from silencershop on 2/23/18, Check cashed 4/1/2018, Form 3 disposed of 4/20/2018, Stamp approved 10/25/2018. Nice lady at NFA branch said it would be mailed in the next 5 -7 days.

[Darkside-Six]

So is "FBI background check" an actual phase in the process now? i sent out 5 stamps in june. 3 form 1 and 2 form 4. all on trust with 2 responsible people. Checks were all cashed on 6/21. I'm not even interested in calling yet as i'll wait until i see more approvals closer to my date. i'm only asking as these were my first purchases after 41P

Thanks.

NFAtracker suggests ~ 6-7 months currently for form 4 trusts. I suspect these have multiple responsible persons ... mine has 1 (ammendment) ... so should be quicker.

Has anyone ever had success in seeing if the ATF will process 2 forms at the same time? I submitted at form 4 in May and another one in Sept. I wonder if it is possible to have them tie those 2 requests together.

I wish they would. Or simply have your name on a list if you’ve been approved in the last 12-18 months to make it run faster.

I haven’t seen anything faster than 7 months come through the shop recently, still have numerous pending approval over 12 months. Sucks seeing some of these faster approval times, oh well.

 

[Longshot231]

Has anyone seen anymore news about the new system ATF was to have in place for FY2019? It's supposed to get wait times down to 90 days.

I'm not saying that I believe that but just what I read.

Ouch! My last one was 13 months. I filed for four more in July, I’m hoping they go through in the 6-7 month time frame.

 

[Longshot231]

I was told from a few Class III dealer, that for anyone who was in the military or government employee with security clearances, that it usually takes longer than for other applicants.

Does anyone know if there is any truth to that. I'm not asking for speculation but wonder if there are any facts or statistics to validate that.

 

[combatgrunt84]

^^^. I had no issue with my first one so far

Not prior military but do have security clearance - 6.5 months for my last 2 form 4s on SRP trust...
