What are the reasons? Because I want one, damn it. But I'm guessing citing the 2nd Amendment isn't what they are looking for.

Re: NFA Wait Times

Re: NFA Wait Times
The gun store put my last quote on all of my Form 4s. My NFA Lawyer suggested "Any Lawful Purpose" for my Form 1.

Re: NFA Wait Times
Just called to check on the status of my form 4 that went pending on 9-7-12. Was told by the person at NFA Branch that it should be approved in March. Ugh.

Re: NFA Wait Times
This website may be a good thing to sticky. There's a fair amount of user-submitted data used to determine probable wait times. They track:
* When forms are submitted to NFA Branch
* When checks are cashed by the ATF
* When stamp goes pending in ATF's system
* When stamp is approved by ATF
* When stamp is received by dealer/individual
* Origin of NFA item (at dealer, Form 3, Form 4, Form 1)
* If the NFA item is submitted as a Trust/Individual
The site predicts when you should receive your tax stamp based on ALL data received as well as data from the last 6 months (which is probably more accurate).

Re: NFA Wait Times
Just got off the phone with the ATF - Surefire FA762K stamp that went pending on 9-7-2012 was approved on 2-16-2013. Now just gotta wait for snailmail (aka USPS) to get the stamp to my dealer.
Have a SWR Spectre II that went pending 2 weeks after the 308 can. Hopefully that approval is a week or so away.
By the way, 2-16-2013 was a Saturday. NFA Branch works Saturdays???? Whodathunk...

Re: NFA Wait Times
This,, Everything i have is on a trust and i don't have to wait on barney to be in a good mood either. 7 stamps total. :thumb:

I would love to have a trust, but I'm not shelling out 1 to 2 grand for one.

Re: NFA Wait Times
Depends on your state & the lawyers.
I've check into trusts a few times & all were near a grand for an attorney to set one up. :wall:

Re: NFA Wait Times
I love that pistol, you should replace the mag safety with a "sam lam" bushing if they still make them.
Looks like he does still make them, best mod I have done to the pistol by far, the trigger pull really smooths out.

Re: NFA Wait Times
That looks very much like one that I own. I have the "Lite" version and a different RMR and mount. I see the VQ trigger on there. Did you get rid of the mag safety so the mags drop free yet? I even have the Sparrow

Re: NFA Wait Times
I did the VQ internals for a mark II so no mag safety, my mags mostly drop free most of the time. but I can not play with it now as I am in Japan for the next few months.
