ATF E-Forms Submission wait time

10:58AM here. They must zoom through those pretty quick!

Mine was 11:06 so yeah, they must fly through them. To be honest, there really isn't much there. Your best bet is to make the application as streamlined as possible even if its [wrong], then simply send a letter "amending" the details. Oops, my bad: I meant to make a 5" 9mm instead of that 12" 5.56 I wrote down... Once you have the stamp approved its easy to "advise the ATF of changes".

Sh!t
Dyslexia strikes again

They don't like typographical errors... PFF is not the same as PPF.

That's simple incompetence not Dyslexia... How embarrassing that a .gov servant can read better than you Sean... lol

Easy to fix and get your stamp in short order hopefully.
 
She said a refund has already been issued, I'll need to e-file again and wait. Whatever, I'm over it

that blows. i hate how they don't even let you guys try to correct the forms--they did it with paper and it took ages. it could be done in seconds if they just let you amend the electronic forms. such bullshit.

This one surprises me bc I HAVE had them contact me and change both form 1 & form 20's. All it took was writing the updated info on the form with initials, scanning it in, and emailing it back to them. This must be both time and inspector dependent.

I just bought an lmt (lewis machine tool) receiver without a barrel as a title 1 firearm.whenever i get approval i just need to engrave trust name and city , buy and attach a barrel. Not much of a build.. i'll be casting my own projectiles out of aluminium or zinc. It's already a work in process.

Edit... it's the rail mount version i will be using on either my sbr which was submitted, rejected,resubmitted with the M203....... most likely with a 9" 40mm barrel and a 14.5 inch upper. Or i can run it on my m16... i know photo's or it didn't happen. Maybe when everything is approved.

Interested in this.....
What are you doing for cups? Where you find a 40mm rail mount ? I've only seen the 37mm flare ones.

Tall one on left is 40mm to 12 gauge
Tall one on right with green base is a 40mm "cannon" round. You load it with whatever in a shotgun like wad
Short one center top is a reloadable 40mm case. I havd 45 nosecones asnd zink pushers so i can load right away when approved



I wish i could have modified my rejected form one...... clydes's armory sells lmt railmount receivers

Better hurry only 2 inStock!!!! (It said thst when i bought mine)

FK me! how much is a barrel?

I sure hope that thing is a blast to shoot when you get that stamp! The sticker price surprised me. Is there a legit reason?

Just what they cost.. you can buy it as a registered dd but then you have to pay 2 $200 taxes instead of one.
IDK what a barrel cost from clydes armory.. 2-4 would be a guess.. you can buy lots of 3 and 4 barrels on gunbroker or armslist for 300.
I'll probibly buy 1 new one for safety reasons and a lot from a forum i'm a member of.. i'd like to have a 12" barrel incase i want to run a 16" upper....

I just thought i should add the m203 enhances my collection already owning an m16.. i would have loved a colt but at 3500- 5000.. I plan on slapping it on the bench and using it. The reloads will only cost a primer and 4-6 grains of bullseye... and my oh so precious time.

I wouldn't worry everything hits me in the face. And i'll hold it from the pistol grip and magwell.. after seing that i won't wrap my hand around the barrel of a 40mm... i could deal with a finger but not a hand..i may make a jig to testfire for load development.

I sent a few questions tobthe 'ask an expert ' thing. Gary N Schaible responded.
. Yes, the tax will be refunded and is in process. We have referred your form to the NFA Branch as a correction for review
Click to expand...

Does that mean I may get pushed ahead in the waiting line?
 
Gary N Schaible is a pretty helpfull guy.
I heard it takes 90 days to receive a refund, i assumed that meant a check.
I recieved my refund in less than 30 days via credit to my debit card..
If the refund is "In process" i don't see how your not back to square one.

If mines dissaproved a second time i may file paper....but i think (hope) i got it right this time.

So you successfully had them make changes to an efile form one?..wish i had called now
Click to expand...

I did a new form one and a new $200. I included the original and new form control numbers in an 'ask the experts' question. I asked if I should expect a long wait or if it could be pushed up for review. A refund is being processed and I'll have to wait on that.
 
Good for you....i'm going to be "asking the experts" the same thing at lunch. That would make my day.

Edit ....The efile site is down Wednesdays

Edit.... i've "asked the experts" i'm curious to see if they often help you out or SJan just got lucky.
Either way nfa tracker has me at around Christmas..i probibly won't die if i have to wait a couple more months for my m203. But no promises.
