Just received notification that 2 suppressors were approved. One was an individual form 4 and approved in 5 months. The other was a trust form 4 and approved in 4 months. These times are submitted to approval.

I decided to call on Monday and found out mine was approved 4/9. Called the jail and he said yep, come get it.
So my check was cashed on 11/24 and approved 4/9.
I will say this was my first one and I was a little shocked when I went to pick it up and had to fill out a normal transfer form. WTH is the Form 4 all about if they didn't do any background information on me. I wasn't ticked off because as a CHL holder it isn't any big deal but it's just stupid it takes them 4 months to go through paperwork and not do any validation of trustees.

FFL's are required to do a 4473 on all firearm/NFA transfers to show to who the item went. There is a check box on it for NFA items and so they don't call NICS to do a background check. The approved form 4 is the background check

Thanks for the explanation Eric...it was implied if I didn't have a CHL then a back ground call would've been made.

IIRC they do not have to call. There is a check box for NFA items. Maybe it is their policy to call.

I have bought two cans w/ a trust and had to fill out the paperwork both times when I went to pick it up. Both times NICS was used. Pretty sure that is standard practice since they aren't doing any kind of background check with the trust. Hell, there is minimal information on the trust so it would be nearly impossible to do so.

Yes, whoever picks up the item must do the background check, there was a change in the law not to long ago or there was some confusion as to doing the background checks. I read online there was some atf agents telling stores no background check was needed for trusts. My first two cans, i did not do a background check, this was within three years ago. My latest form 4 was sent on 5-4, check was cashed 5-12.

So does the wait start when u order it or when it has been accepted? If your dealer is waiting for a Form 3 to be approved...2-3 months. Once they receive the approved Form 3 they then can prepare and issue a Form 4. Now the wait begins...4-6 months. The key is buy an item from a dealer who already has the item in stock on a Form 3.
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

I've been watching silencershop's wait times pretty much daily. It seems they have stalled, and even at times gone backwards for paper form 4's. I wonder why? Also, the dates are still different if using a mobile browser vs desktop.

Purchased 2 Omega's March 3 ... $'s accepted by ATF March 12.... I think 4 months is the right number based on the Silencer Shop tracking status.
Getting close!
