As I understand it, if you’ve ever been arrested — regardless of offense & outcome — a quick Form 4 turnaround is unlikely.
Same applies if your SOT is arrested for beating his pregnant girlfriend.

There are several factors which influence approval times even with the restored form 4 E file. Very very few peeps are seeing 90 day approval times. Your FBI background check has to be squeaky clean/zero issues. Your class 3 dealer has to do his end in a timeless fashion with no clerical errors. Most peeps are running 200 to 250 days. Your local FFL promised you things that just don't normally happen. Remember he wanted to sell a can/make money on the sale. That was his or her motivation.
You can call the ATF all you want and it will not speed up sh*t. If you p*ss them off, they may delay you longer (retribution). At this point, you have no choice but to sit tight and wait for approval. I mostly blame your local FFL for "puffing" your sale/transaction/approval times. He knows the game and how long it really takes for approvals even with E file. Call him and ask why it’s not happening (approval) like he said. He will blame it on the ATF or FBI no doubt. If you go beyond 300 days, you can contact your Congressional rep and ask him or her to look into it. Expedite it. You have to have some patience with this process, which you seem to be lacking. Trying to cancel the transaction after application and payment? Go visit your local dealer and give him the third degree. Bottom line is take a number and be somewhat patient. Class 3 has never been a fast and furious game. Except my F1 individual applications ATF on line, most approvals in < 30 days.
What in the world…..? I would have been contacting every state representative 500 days ago lol…. That’s ridiculous!Same applies if your SOT is arrested for beating his pregnant girlfriend.

Where did you do yours?I'm at 13 months. submitted November 2021,
certified March 2022, approval TBD
at a silencer shop kiosk in lake charlesWhere did you do yours?
Is it DTS in Moss Bluff?at a silencer shop kiosk in lake charles
nope cc's on prien lake. I think I'm going to start using bowie's. they have good prices and a better high end selection.Is it DTS in Moss Bluff?
thats where my 2 coworkers went to... they just got approved in the last 2 weeks one was 340 days and the other was a bout 7 days less, they went up there at the same timenope cc's on prien lake. I think I'm going to start using bowie's. they have good prices and a better high end selection.
well, hopefully my time is coming. it might be a little longer for me as I was away when I needed to certify and that probably ly added about a month or two on mine although I am at about 395 days now.thats where my 2 coworkers went to... they just got approved in the last 2 weeks one was 340 days and the other was a bout 7 days less, they went up there at the same time
I haven’t been in there much. We just don’t have a huge selection in our area. I want a stock for one of my AR’s and DTS has the price tag at $170 and I can get it online at Midway USA for $125. I mean it’s only a $45 difference, but there are a few things to think about when deciding what to do. Do I support my local gun store buy paying $45 more and get the stock instantly? I mean I literally live 2 miles from the store. Or do I order it online when now I have to add shipping? They both will have tax added so that’s not a big deal, but sometimes shipping is ridiculous. Then you are stuck waiting… But our local stores don’t have a huge selection to begin with…. So it is what it is…nope cc's on prien lake. I think I'm going to start using bowie's. they have good prices and a better high end selection.
For sure!!!! I love PA. I just bought the 4-14X44 FFP with HUD ACSS reticle. I only spent $302 for scope and mount. I actually prefer it over my Vortex Viper PST 6-24X50. I didn’t realize they were in Houston though. I’m gonna have to go check them out.@70mikenike70 Order on line and pay less. Check out Primary Arms next door in TX. They usually have very competitive prices, and their shipping charges are very fair. I have done a lot of business with PA, good people and if there is a problem, they will make it right. In Houston TX, they also have a retail store there you can visit/make purchases. Prior to about 18 months ago, PA didn't collect any sales taxes, but they do now.
I have ordered from Midway many times but sales tax and their shipping charges can eat you up on small orders. Sometimes Midway offers free shipping, and then they are competitive. PA usually has a better price, and stocks a LOT of parts and accessories, and firearms too. PA is dangerous, I have spent too much money there.
