Just got off the phone with the BATFE, the wait time has increased to 6 months

what are they taking 6 months to do?
That's the million dollar question. They say, they are extremely busy...
I recently got my NFA trust back to use for the purchase. Does that speed things up with them?
I've got form 4's that have been pending since August!! This sucks

I have a transfer in now... I hate this god awful ATF system.
Take what should be simple and turn it into a clusterfvck. I paid my tax, read the form, stamp it, and be done with it. You can't do a background check on a trust, so just stamp the motherfvcker paid!
They're just hideously understaffed. This problem could probably be solved by the end of the year if Congress would allocate a million bucks or so towards the issue.Must be all those trusts I'm doing...

That's really quite unfair. They processed ~105k NFA forms in 2010.I dont think its really a money issue and thats its more of a "We dont give a shit." issue.

If you could do better with the same resources (16 examiners), I'd be quite surprised. They just flat-out need more people there.
