ATF Form 4 thread. Process and approvals!

[PatMcD]

My buddy just got approved in 6 DAYS!

He is AGR and has undergone some previous deep security checks as a member of a NBC Responce Team. But I can't imagine that would have anything to do with a quick turnaround with the ATF.

 

[DarthRevan]

I'm going to certify tomorrow so I'll let you know.

 

[DarthRevan]

17 hour approvals

 

[ChevyGuy91]

God damn it.

 

[VTski4x4]

I need an 07 yesterday. Ugh I hate this state.

Individual form 4?

Wish I wasn't buying a house this very moment or I would try my hand at buying another can as an individual this time around.

Yeah, I have one that’s been sitting in a trust since Nov waiting to clear ATF purgatory.
It was about four weeks from cash down to can in hand. They had to order it in. Wild.
Might get a 45 can next.

Who did you buy the 17 hour approval from? Silencer Shop?

 

[DarthRevan]

Yeah but I’d bet regular submission individuals would process as fast.

I'm curious if "trust bundling" is actually going to happen. I've been sitting on a Form 1 for about a month and just submitted a Form 4 on Friday. I have another suppressor waiting on a Form 3. If I'm lucky they will look at that Form 1 and batch my Form 4s. More likely I'll see those cans in 6-7 months.

 

[DarthRevan]

Four days later, my RC2 is freed as well.



Trust: eForm4 131 days

You gotta get some longer handguards or SBR those. The length of exposed barrel bothers me.

Let us know what you think of the RC2. It might be my next can.

Bothers me too. I’ll need to make a new upper with my old longer rail set.

FIFY

Here I am waiting two weeks on my OCL OCM5 after getting my two Velos cans approved in under 24 hours. I genuinely think the overlords at the ATF get off on this shit. I was used to waiting a few months and forgetting (sort of) about the pending cans until getting the approvals. Now I’m like, where the f*** are my stamps after waiting two weeks and looking every day.

This thread made me try my luck and I grabbed a mask and ghost45 on Friday. Doing it through Silencershop and just waiting for the dealer to call me back to certify the eform. If I get lucky with approval time, I'll be adding a sandman.

Was initially going to get a Wolfman for 9mm but they talked me into the ghost so I could play around with 45 or 300blk for basically same size and weight.

 

[cams]

I got nothing yet. Website right now is showing 89 days for form 4 - individual.

 

[kingson]

Just got 2 back. Same customer filed on the same day with mail in prints. Hopefully this keeps up

E-filed 26 March and still waiting.

So I’ve shot the RC2 on the piston LWRC IC-A2.
So far I can confidently say that the current batch of XM193 55gr federal ammo does not work with Surefire cans.
I will have to bring my other rifle out with my trash panda and see if I have the same results but so far shooting mid length gas systems with 1/7 barrels I need to be using 69 grain or higher bullet weights to get 1 moa accuracy.

That said, while there is more gas blowback (as expected) on the RC2 compared to the RC3, it’s less awful than the Trash Panda was.

I will need to swap SF cans to see the further impact.

I know you remember when we were waiting a year for this.... chill

 

[Caveman]

It happened. Batch approval for 6 stamps. All single shot trusts starting from Nov ‘23 to last week.

I know that shop

I know that shop

That's my preferred place, all my silencers and most of my transfers, and some new stuff too. Great people.

 

[iefstath]

Just got my first two approved. Submitted Friday afternoon and got the ATF approval this morning.

Basically the same here except I submitted mine Thursday night, approved this morning.

I just purchased my first suppressor. I have a National Gun Trust trust but went the individual route becasue of the reported short approval times. I am not loaning out my suppressors. I'll just add them to my will. My heir can use a tax-exempt Form 5 transfer when I am pushing dasies. eForm4, prints, photo, and payment--20 minutes. The shop said to expect it by Tuesday since it is late Friday.

Approved today. Two business days total.

 

[MC56]

Just got approved after 140 days. Submitted two same day and the other was approved in 106 days. Both on the same trust.

 

[Road_Clam]

So how's the availability of 5.56 supressors ? Im seeing a ton of "backorder" status on Silencer Shop. Ive delt in the past with 2A Tactical in Brentwood NH and they are a SS dealer. I have 3 other cans but in need of a dedicated 556 .
