Bought my Thunder Beast in December and was told not to worry about it until April

When are the new obama rules in effect?

BTW, does anyone know how to handle a change of address with the ATF?

Yessir, had crews right down the road from them this morning. Mark reacting to call volume was entertaining. He said last time his phone rang like this they sold out of every can on inventory in like a week.

Just got an email from the ATF stating that my Form 1 has been approved. I e-filed on 9/13, so wait time was 134 days. It's going to be a SBR on my Class Year receiver set from EyeGuy. Too bad I'm going fishing in a few weeks and will almost certainly lose it in the lake.

Doing my class year set as an SBR, too. Just filed my Form 1.

I am checking mailbox holding my chest I have a form 1 to SBR a sig MPX sent 8-31. It was returned 2 weeks ago as ATF wanted SIG MPX as model not just MPX. I have an octane HD in jail mailed same day to go on it. I am thinking I am in the home stretch.

I'm looking at the exact same setup, so good to know about the model number. Just ordered an Octane 45 HD and an Omega .308. About to SBR the MPX and a lower that I have laying around.

I've got a Thunder Beast Ultra 7 in jail right now up at Spring Guns & Ammo. Form 4 filed a few weeks ago. Expecting another 4 months or so.

Cave,

What do they charge for the TB Ultra 7?

Sticker price was $1129 or $1150 I believe, but I got it for right at $1000. They'll file your Form 4 for you as well. Just make them a copy of your trust info, and they'll take care of it. Good customer service, knowledgeable staff, nice selection of weapons and other NFA items, pretty good indoor range, etc. I like them a lot.

3 weeks ago efiled a Form1 SBR and snail mailed a Form 4 transfer for my first can (used a LEO signoff) to my trust. Also at that time bought an AAC SDN-6 and snail mailed in a Form4.

Here in about 3 more weeks, going to get another AAC SDN-6 hopefully filed...

I've got a SilencerCo Saker 7.62 in jail. Form 4 check cashed 8/31, and no sign of approval yet. I thought I'd have it a few weeks ago, based on the processing times when I ordered it, but they've been going steadily up. In the immortal words of Tom Petty, the waiting is the hardest part.

Just called the BATFE and they said my form 4 was approved on January 16 (whoop!), but I called the FFL and he said he doesn't have it yet (hissss!). Is it normal to be 3 weeks post-approval and not have be able to pick the damn thing up?!?! Just when I thought the wait was over . . . waiting some more!

Silencer Shop's website has a Form 4 tracker on it that was very close for mine.

Currently waiting on a Form 1 to come back. Might have to pick up a few lowers to beat the NFA changes.

My last approval was 2 weeks from stamp date to when my dealer e-mailed me.

My thoughts as well, but I'm trying to figure out how many form 1 lowers I really need.

When was that? The guy told me he has seen them go three weeks after signing until they get mailed, then another week after mailing . . . seems absurd, but then again gubmint.

He isn't lying. I've seen approved forms take up to 6 weeks to get into the FFL's hands. ~10 years ago, all of my forms were being processed by William Shipman. His nickname was "Shredder" Shipman because approved and pending forms would mysteriously disappear off of his desk. Eventually it was found he was shredding forms when he started to get behind. He was notorious for shredding print cards too.

I had an approved form sit on his desk for 4 weeks before mailing. I had to call the Chief of the NFA branch to find my paperwork and get it in the mail. Sandra Snook was almost as bad about sitting on forms.

Bought one of these on Saturday so my .22 can would have something to live on. Shop guys say they make lots of money on folks waiting on cans who foolishly swing by to see if the paper work magically appeared.

I have not. But the .22 version is basically savages TOL model with a shorter barrel and the base model/crappy stock from what I've read. I've shot a buddies spendy version and it's great. Will likely put a Boyd's stock on mine for shtts and giggles.
