So far it has taken 15 calender days. The check was just cashed yesterday and the NFA office is saying it is taking 14 days for data entry, then it goes to a reviewer. This is all after the check clears. This sucks. After all of the short turn around times that I have been reading about, I was hoping to have mine soon. Oh well.
On a more positive note, my lower has been engraved. I still need to pick it up.
I got my Form 1 back last week. It took 26 days mailbox to mailbox, but mine was an Individual and not a Trust. I’m not sure if one or the other takes longer, but I wouldn’t start worrying yet.
It used to be that Trusts, LLCs and Corp transfers were the fastest.
All are very quick to be approved lately. Quickest I’ve seen as of late is 16 days for both private and Trust approvals.
The trust route is better in a few circumstances. For instance. Both my wife and I are gunnuts. Sometimes we’ll meet after work at the range. Since were both ‘Grantors and Trustees’ either one of use can possess the NFA stuff without the others presence.
Don’t feel like the Lone Ranger. I sent a Corp SBR off Mid March and still have not got shit back. The one before that was back in under 3 weeks. Go figger.
Well I recieved my Form 1 back Sat. I was very happy because we had a range trip scheduled for today. Well let me say what a fun trip, well worth the wait. The only problem I was having is that I could not run any Wolf through it. Luckily I had some Remington brass that I was able to put down range.
I need suggestions to get this thing running on Wolf ( I know, " I should be shooting better ammo"). Well I have my reasons and I want to shoot Wolf, if I can.
The problem is, with the Wolf, it would not strip the next round from the magazine. After the first round would fire, there would not be another round in the chamber. I think this is called short stroking?
Specs are as followed:
LMT 10.5" upper
LMT BCG w/ black extractor insert and Crane O-Ring
H buffer w/ ISMI spring
PMAGS, but did try a USGI metal mag and that did not work
Should I go back to a standard buffer spring? What buffer should I use? Standard or 9MM
