    I just recieved a disapproval email abouty sbr F1. Due to having an 'X' in the caliber (7.62X39). I'm away from my computer but will resubmit ASAP and hopefully get approval quickly after that. I only submitted the Eform F1 3 1/2 weeks ago! Hopefully this is a good sign.

    Called today. She told me it went pending 4/14, BUT my check wasn't cashed until 4/15! Hmmm.
    she told me it's about 9months from pending, but looking at this thread I'll stay optimistic!

    10. Notes: Hagerstown PD and Chief Folkner were awesome. Signed the form 1 while I waited. Came back after city hall was closed and was printed by H-2 (sorry forgot your name).

    Now begins the waiting game. What are the odds of getting my stamp by my birthday (6/1)? Haha

    Came in while I was away on vacation. What a great gift to come home to! And right under 7 months. Can't believe I am saying that is quick...

    Did you last couple of guys paper file or efile? I paper filed some form4's with a trust back in December and I still haven't heard anything. I also efiled a form1 for an SBR on 3/28 and it's still showing submitted/in progress. I did it a couple of days before the ATF pulled down the site for awhile. Do you think it is even valid at this point? Should I be calling on this stuff?

    I paper filed. I just made sure I had no mistakes before it was sent in. I was honestly surprised to have it returned this fast as some are taking 9-12 months to have their paper file returned.

    I received the approved paperwork and tax stamp today for the Silencerco Sparrow suppressor that I bought the second week of January 2014. That means it took right at 7 months for my non e-filed paperwork to be approved. I guess that is better than the 1 year wait that I was told it may take, but it certainly could be improved upon.


    Now to go try this thing out!

    ** I was told by the branch office that trusts are running about 6-9 months...THIS IS OBVIOUSLY NOT THE CASE...LOOKS LIKE MINE WOULD OF BEEN APPROVED ON SEP. 23, 2014...looking at 4 months and a week (17 weeks from pending date for approval/in front of examiners eye balls.) This is what I have been told is the avg time.
    **I was also told that the correction would take up to December!!! WTF! I doubt it! I was told locally that it takes no more than 8-21 days give or take.
    ***It was 15 days exactly upon submitting my corrections on a Form 4-Paper-Trust to get my approval.
