    MSP took 6 weeks:

    1. NFA Item: Suppressor
    2. Form Type: Form 4
    3. Transferee: 2A Sales
    4. CLEO Signoff:Oct 4, 201
    5. CLEO Recieved:Oct 15, 2011
    6. Forms Sent:Oct 17,2011
    8. Check Cashed: ...

    Funny how this stuff works. I turned mine in on 9/16. Signed off on 10/11 and recieved in the mail on 10/14:confused: Looks like yours just sat there for a week before being mailed:sad20:


    Starting week 7 waiting on papers back from MSP. If I could do it over again I would have just done a trust this is ridiculous.

    See above. You may want to call them.

    Revvin' Evan, are you talking about MSP paperwork or are you talking about ATF paperwork when you say one month turn around time?

    This thread is mostly about ATF turn around times.

    Brad,
    I went the Trust route, but Evans said over email that he was willing to sign. Look for Rusty Shakleford (member here) and enquire about a Trust..... well worth it.

    Still - Thanks, I may do a Trust later on, since my finances ain't what they used to be I'll probably go solo on the first 'Stamp', that and I worry the BATF will stop the Trust deal, since it makes NFA-life more bearable.

    All the more reason to do it from the outset.
    That way, the cost of setting up the trust gets spread among any (and all) future NFA purchases.

    Good point, If I can get one set up w/out breaking my pocket too bad...I may just do that first, then wait till I recoup some expenses and get my can.

    God, I need a better paying job..., I miss working for Mercedes-Benz... :sad20:

    5 months......ouch:tdown:

    Yup, be pateint. I just checked around last night. Some forum posts here and there and NFA tracker times. Looks like when people have called recently, WV is telling people ~4 months from when they go pending. (Not advocating calling.)
    "Ouch" is right. Just sent mine to Atlanta 2 days ago. Time for a long nap, Rip Van Winkle style.

    Waiting on a previous one, check cashed by ATF early July. Still waiting.
    Evan, I think you may have seen it at 2A, the FDE Osprey on the FDE FNP45?
    That is the one that should be back in the next 30 days or so, let's hope?

    That's a badass rig. Were you the guy that called them about the finish having a blemish?

    Yeah, that's the one.
    But get this....you may remember Mark and I were rubbing CLP on it to see if it would do anything to the blem?

    Mark calls a few days later, he pulled it back out of the box, and the CLP had taken the stain out! :D
    Looks like it had leached from the black velcro on the pouch onto the anno finish.
    All is well now. :thumbsup:
    Except for the ATF wait! I keep saying "any time now?" :fingerscrossed:

    Once everyone gets their stamps for the YHM SBRs we'll have to have a SBR shoot somewhere.

    Based on the latest estimates, I'm guessing it's going to be Feb/March timeframe since mine just got mailed to ATF this week.

    I probably won't have the stamp back for my YHM 9mm SBR until April I think. Only because I don't think I'll have my forms back from MSP until the end of November. But once I have it, I'm down for a range session with you guys.

    Post up as we get them. Then we can make arrangements.

    Sure Dave! The more the merrier.....maybe we all just show up at the "2nd annual suppressor" shoot? Or have an SBR/Subgun Shoot?

    ***Sorry, but we are drifting into a THREAD JACK here, ... back to "Wait Times".

    Question for you guys. Tomorrow marks 16 weeks of Pending status for my Osprey and 15 weeks of Pending status for my 22Sparrow, should I call to see if there is any news?

    It's up to you, but with the last report of 4 months.

    You may be around the halfway point.

    I'm only a month in for my last transaction...
