Form 4s are taking forever but Form 1 is flying through. I think I'd be inclined to say fk it and Form 1 one and be done with it by Xmas. I have a buddy send a Form 1 in for a SBR and it was back in like 15 days.

I submitted a form 4 last year check cashed 08/27/19. Just got approved 11/02/20. Still waiting on my stamp. Mine got held up by the FBI also, I finally contacted my congressman mid October. Not sure if that helped or not but it had been pending FBI check since April and within two weeks of contacting my Representative it was approved. Hoping my stamp comes in soon. This is the longest I have ever waited.

Or how about suppressors are treated like magazines, optics or other accessories like EARMUFFS??? You walk in, pay your money and walk yo happy ass out the door. Or, how about the whole NFA is UNconstitutional?

I have no problem with that at all, but here in the land of the free I doubt we will ever see that.

So I bought a new SBR 10/2019, did the electronic process at the dealer and everything was cashed by the ATF by 10/20/19. Dealer said it would be 4-7 months at that time based on previous Form 4's.

Then Covid hits, so I let it go for a bit. I just called to poke into the process last week. Dealer calls the ATF and is told things are slowed down again and my Form 4 had fallen thru the cracks. Said that it was being pushed thru.

I get ahold of the examiner at the ATF and basically even though my check was cashed 10/20/19 the ATF didnt log into their system until late 11/2019. My file was transferred into the FBI system 7/2020 and currently the FBI is working on 6/2020 files. Hoping it will bee only another 4-8 weeks until I get the stamp in.
Meh get your money back if you can, this will only move you to the front of their list

Money back on what?

There is no way a dealer is going to give me my money back on a Class 3 rifle that I have attached my optic on, my suppressor QD along with shot 300 rounds thru it just because the ATF is taking their time.

Sounds like something is not right. I submitted a paper Form 4 on 5/14/20 and it was approved on 10/15/20. You might need to contact a congressman like someone has already mentioned.
