What is the going wait time for an NFA item? ATF cashed my check in July and still havent heard a thing. I knew it would take some time but man...... Sure would like to play with the can before going to the nursing home!

I hear that 3 months is the avg. wait from the time the check is cashed.............. I have waited as little as 26 days on a form 4 in the past, it all just depends on the examiner and their work load.

My last three were 3 months. Yea it's worse the waiting on Christmas as a little kid. At lease I could find the hidden present & peek.

I called and checked on mine tuesday.  They said it was approved November 9th.  It still has not arrived to my knowledge.  They said it could take 30 days to make it back, but I am so worried thats its lost in the mail or somthing.  This is my first NFA toy, so I am wigging out.

 Call them and find out.  
 If the paperwork was lost, at least they would issue you the copy and send it back out.

My co-worker recently sent in his $200 tax-paid individual Form 4 transfer and got it approved in 4 days. YMMV.

The check for mine was cashed on Oct 13th so I am about 2 months out so far.  I was hoping to see it around Christmas time, but won't hold my breath.

That is an exception to the rule.  Don't get the newbies excited that they can realistically bypass these long waits.

My latest form 4 came back about 3 weeks ago. Took about 2 months mailbox to mailbox.
