Re: New ATF Form 1 Help

The two stamps of mine which took 13 and 17 respectively were individual. In the tracking threads I've been reading, wait time averages for individuals are like 15 days and trusts are 18... a modicum more work of one or two days to check responsible persons, I suppose.

I hate to be "that guy" who has anything but bad things to say about the NFA, but, I must admit, 14-day-wait-times are downright reasonable. If they could digitize fingerprints and just keep them on file instead of mailing in a new set for every electronic form, man, we'd be in business.

If you live in the Austin area there main store/office is here. It's a one stop shop and believe me it makes the process so much easier than doing it yourself.

I highly recommend that you DON'T go through Silencer Shop right now for an electronic form 1 right now. I've done two stamps by myself since Valentine's Day and had a turnaround time of 13 and 17 days, respectively. If you look at reddit's NFA forum in their big Wait Time thread, most folks who used SS back in January haven't even had their applications sent to the ATF yet; folks from early December are just getting their stamps back now, which is like a tenfold increase in wait time and you're paying more than you need to in the first place. Some folks are even still waiting from November last year... could've basically done a paper one in the mail by that point.
