Well, that sucks, but time is money, and if you can get approved in a damn week or 2 on an individual, then pick it up from the dealer, then flip it over to a Trust at the expense of another $200, you already have the can, and are still using it in the meantime… Just costs you double to get it sooner.
)? 
Exactly what I will be doing in the near futureSo, if one has a regular trust (not a one-shot) but wants their can in hand asap, let’s say they submit electronically as an individual. $200.
To get that can into the trust, is it an additional $200? Of course they can use the can in the meantime
You don’t have to use a dealer. You are already the owner of the NFA item. Form 4 to Form 4 transfer doesn’t require a dealer, just a complete resubmission of a new Form 4 for the Trust to the ATF and another $200 check. Form 3 to Form 4 requires a dealer.
If you're a hunter, getting a can 9 months sooner could mean another season or 2. I was hoping to have mine by October, this year but wasn't banking on it. Now I've got it for spring bear and fall season. I'd have paid $200 for that without a thought.
It just matters when you die (I think).
This is exactly what I did for my Hybrid 46.. which got approved in 3 days.
Are you married? Does your wife or kids have access to the safe? Constructive possession of an nfa controlled item.
Yeah, thought that through. I have a trust with relatives on it. Nobody has access but me.
I was under the impression a relative could acquire it with a Form 5 after I kick off
Perfect, that's how I understood it and I printed off two form 5's but will look into the fillable PDFs.
I have a trust, this one is on an individual…needed a quick turn at the ATF due to a move in 3 months…outside of trust approval times…so I’d have to roll the dice and cancel if not approved before the move then reapply again. So went individual and I’ll debate assigning it to my trust after I have possession
Bumping this question back up. These fast indictable turn around has me wondering about buying another can if the wait is low
I’m at 8 1/2 months on four form 4s individual eforms…
Same. Not sure what’s grid locking these older eform individual submissions but it’s like blue balls seeing all these fast proceeds.
You two irritating fags submit as individual or trust?
You’re convincing me to buy another can when I don’t need one lol
I felt the same way when I was waiting for my trust to approve, then said, "what the heck, let's just give the individual approval a try"
If you have something on your wish list, I say grab it up! With elections coming up, could be shortages a head of firearms related itemsI felt the same way when I was waiting for my trust to approve, then said, "what the heck, let's just give the individual approval a try"
I filed 2 form 4s on 1/31/24 individual
Oh... I am going to piss you off then!
Submitted a Form 1 on 03/01 and after seeing all the 2 to 7 day approvals I e-mailed NICS liason and was told to fuck off and stop e-mailing them (In nicer language but par for the course) so I hit the "other" e-mail and explained that I had screwed up a form, withdrawn, and resubmitted all in an hour and could it be problem having 2 forms in the system with the same serial # anf how could I help if it was. This was at 2:22 P.M. today. At 2:29 P.M. I was approved! Followed at 2:30 P.M. by a very nice e-mail that said that wasn't the issue, it was a NICS problem but they re-submitted the back ground check and my form was approved. This all happened in SEVEN, yes SEVEN minutes! I can't get my head around it but I am tickled pink! Full disclosure it was really 12 days but talk about things that make you go "Hmmmm."Oh... I am going to piss you off then!
