I'm still waiting from 11/23/17
I’ve got 5 stamps that were all cashed 6/21/18 so I’m right there with you. Haven’t bothered calling yet.Check cashed 5/23/18 and still nothing for an obsidian .45 sent on a trust.
Last batch that came in was sent March 2018 and a arrived September. So I was hoping the 6 month turn around was a new trend, but I had a SBR due in November and it’s still pending. Of course the shutdown didn’t help, but it looks like we’re back to 8-9 months.
5 waiting in jail.....
Yikes still waiting since March?? Well he's right on the cusp of 9 months, hopefully it'll be one of the first to go out now that they're back to work.My buddy sent his individual form 4 in March 2018. Still waiting. I did mine November 2018 so I didn't expect it until after 9 months before we had the shutdown. No idea now. My dealer in November said they were running 7-9 months.
Called just now, and they even took the option to speak with someone off the menu. They said now you have to send an email.. basically now it’s just press 1 if you’re law enforcement.
Guys, we need to be a little patient. They’re just getting back to work today so they’ll probably have this email thing up for s few days while they get things back up and running. Kinda like I do when I’ve been off work for a week or two and then leave my “out of office” on the first day back just so I can get caught up on in peace. Hopefully they get rocking and cranking these things out.
I was also under the impression that they hired more people that were supposed to start here at the beginning of the year?
I find myself pretty impatient when it comes to infringement, especially 11 months of infringement. #everygunlawisaninfringementGuys, we need to be a little patient.

Got my first Maxim back in Sept after 6 months waiting, 2nd one is overdue by a month and add the 34 days backlog too.Two items check cashed late May 2018 single person trust a Silencerco Maxin9 9mm integral pistol and a FNC 5.56 MG. Been pending since June I assume a few more months of waiting ahead. Sure wish I had sent those in earlier. PG
I figure to hold off on the phone call as long as possible. The more phone calls they get, the less time they spend on processing the approvals.Perhaps on the phone answering thing they have enlisted that staff to do some lower level data entry etc. to jump start the backlog......

The government is only funded for 3 weeks, do not forget that.
Exactly......I find myself pretty impatient when it comes to infringement, especially 11 months of infringement.
All,
This whole process isnt static. We should all be aware that an average is the ideal, but cannot be seen as the norm. Things will happen. After this shut down is all over, the reported average will go from 7 months to 10 months. That will be the new norm and what people will be anticipated turn around time.
It's tough that we are dealing with this now. I have 2 cans on hold and would love to have them tomorrow. That's not at all realistic. We all know going in that this will take time. I'm sure we were all told when we purchased the can that we should just forget that we bought one. It's approved when its approved. And it's not like you cant still go shoot. If hearing is a concern, pm me and I'll send you some 3 cent ear plugs. You'll pay for shipping!
So let me ask, based on above you'd be okay with buying a house, paying for it in full, and then waiting anywhere from 6 - 15 months for the sale to be recorded before the gov decides whether they will allow you to take possession and move in?
Obviously pushing it to the limits here, but in essence is pretty much what is going on with the ATF.

I realize that there are some here that will tell me that "it doesn't do any good to vote or call my representative, cause they are going to do whatever they want anyway."

This is a terrible analogy ^^^
People on this forum regularly pay in-full for delayed gratification on actions, full builds, SHOT show items, etc. Most people waited longer for an ARC Nucleus than the current ATF wait time.
Well seems as though the only thing they are doing is cashing checks no approvals figures
??You are aware that was 235 years ago and a lot has changed to make us much softer in the intervening years!
How does it go? Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away... I put the chance of them not getting back pay at something slightly less than us going back to muskets.
Terrible analogy^^^^
They pay for an item then wait for the item, NOT for permission from the government. Big freakin difference.
There is absolutely no correlation between “delayed gratification” and a unreasonably delayed enumerated constitutional right .....This is a terrible analogy ^^^

Like it or not, we agreed that the waiting came with the territory.There is absolutely no correlation between “delayed gratification” and a unreasonably delayed enumerated constitutional right .....

We could all keep our money in our pockets until the laws change. And maybe one day the process will get easier and quicker.
Which wait seems most logical?
“Complying” and “agreeing “ two completely different matters.Like it or not, we agreed that the waiting came with the territory.

I think we are all saying the same thing.“Complying” and “agreeing “ two completely different matters.
I never agreed to the NFA.
I never agreed that a muffler should be part of the NFA
I never agreed the process we are forced to undertake be deemed “non essential” while the government spats.
I never agreed to not discuss timelines, projections, procedures and other matters pertaining to this foolishness in a forum named “Suppressors” in a thread titled “Form 4 Wait Time.
No sorry I will not go sheepishly into the night.....
Yes I did comply ......while gritting my teeth.
