Re: Form 4 wait time

Check cashed on 1/10/12
1/23/12 it went pending.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: yfzjen</div><div class="ubbcode-body">The wait now begins for me. Dealer signed on 12/31/11, fingerprints and photos on 1/2/12, Chief of police signature on 1/3/12, and dropped in the mail for its journey 1/4/12. Dealer states roughly 4-5 months is the wait he's been seeing. So i'm hoping to have before the scorching Texas summer heat kicks in.</div></div>

Re: Form 4 wait time

Hey guys, Quick question???

So i had a trust done in July 2011, gave my $200.00 cash for the tax stamp and was issued a Suppressor (.30cal) which i am going to put on my AR .223. The NFA told me i should have it before Valentines day and i am getting excited, however, i just went to the website to the gun dealer i purchased all above from and they have went out of business, closed, retired etc...... now what do i do? I have the make, model and serial number for the suppressor but where would it be?

Also,

Does anyone have a good reccomendation for a gun dealer in the Denver/metor area that will be able too thread my rifle(s) once i do receive my suppressor???


Thank you all!

Re: Form 4 wait time

Two more came in this week that is four this month and two more hopefully within the week. Seems like close to 6 months some a week or two shy of that.
I guess that means I have about 6 months for the latest two. At least this time I have some in inventory to keep me occupied while I wait. Guess I need to send off a couple of SBR's while I am at it.

Re: Form 4 wait time

I ordered my a TBAC at the beginning of Jan. In process to the dealer, who then has to send it to my dealer in this state, then the form 4. Based on form 3 and 4 wait times, I'll be lucky to pick it up this year.

AAC Cylone went pending Sept 2. Dealer called Monday February 13 and said my stamp was in! Going to pick it up today. Greatest Valentines day present ever!!!!

this has been answered 20 times in this very thread, but on the info page of the form 4 there is a phone number to call for inquiries, call that number and ask. Have ready your name and the serial number to the can

Re: Form 4 wait time

Do Form 1 trasfers go to a different department than Form 4's?

If I send in a SBR Form 1, and also a Form 4 for a Suppressor, will the same examiner do all the paper work or no?

Re: Form 4 wait time

I think I might be taking the plunge and get myself a Can very soon. However, there's a chance I might be moving from CO to OH in the next few months. If I start the process here will that be a problem if by the time I can pick up the suppressor, I live in a different state? Will or can the vendor ship the suppressor to me?

Should I wait until I get to OH? Who's faster/better on the wait time, OH or CO?
