These things are moving fast.
ATF Wait Times are getting to be almost decent.
Median wait for eForm 4 individual is now 4 days.
Median Wait for eForm 4 trust is only 54 days.
I can confirm that eForm 4 trust wait time. Next range trip will be a little quieter with a 30 cal can

Re: eForm 4 wait times
I heard the same thing last time I was picking up at Grab A Gun. Those guys said it was taking "days" instead of weeks.

Yes, sometimes.
Other times it's taking well over a month or two.
There's no more rhyme or reason to the wait times than there is for anything else ATF does.

Re: eForm 4 wait times
The wait time isn't as big an issue for me as the high prices of in-stock suppressors.Excaliber wrote: ↑Wed Aug 28, 2024 6:23 ammGrayling813 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 27, 2024 3:21 pm I heard the same thing last time I was picking up at Grab A Gun. Those guys said it was taking "days" instead of weeks.

Re: eForm 4 wait times
Ive submitted several form 4s and form 1s this year, none have taken over 7 days to approve.
We went from waiting on the ATF to waiting on inventory.

Re: eForm 4 wait times
Wow! This is great. I wish I could afford another machine gun. My last one 20 years ago took 7 months for an individual form 4 with Sheriff's signature. I went over to SilencerCo and looked at their wait times and they were showing average 3 days for an individual form 4. I see absolutely no reason for a NFA Trust since they require responsible person photos and prints anyway and I already have a will and testamentary trust for my heirs. I also have an Series LLC I used for real estate investing and if I had some reason to have more than one owner of my NFA stuff I could create a new Series for NFA things.

Maybe its just a way to get the details of more people on their register more quickly so they know who to come after later, but then of course I am just an old cynic.
