The NFA gods must be happy with me. My form 4 for my first suppressor just came back. Approved just 7 days after the form 1 for this rifle

Congrats man. When did you submit your F1? I submitted mine in 5Sep14 and am waiting still.

22 Aug

Mine came back a little later than most. I called to check status once and they told me that the examiner would probably change. Not sure why it changed but it added about a week before it was approved.

Did you file as an individual or trust?

5

E-file trust

Thanks for the update. Looks like I’m a week or two away.

Outstanding. If you don’t already, keep an eye on nfatracker.com

Should give you a good idea of when to expect it, especially if you know your examiner

I was looking at the same stock for my SBR. How has it worked so far? Do you notice any difference between that and a standard RE and stock?

9

Any reason you went with the Ultra compact stock as opposed to just the compact stock?

10

It functioned flawlessly when I took it out yesterday. No noticeable difference from a standard buffer tube and stock, just a little shorter

Wanted to save the extra inch. I was trying to go for the shortest possible rifle with the 10.5" barrel. Considered 7.5 but the 10 gave me more options with suppressors

10.5" is the shortest I"d go. I like the 11.5". I have both. No cans for me here in VT.
