My last one was 8 months, filled in early nov 19 and picked up a week ago.

Bought another one when I picked this one up and the shop said 200 days is about the avg, so 6-7 months....but we’ll see.

I posted this in one of the other wait time threads.

Purchased from Silencer Shop 11/1/19
Check cashed 12/4/19
Approved 4/24/20
Stamp at dealer 5/26/20
Silencer shop kiosk kinda sucks.

Looking at the form right now it is actually stamped Feb 24 2020.

Did you receive an e-mail or snail mail for the approval........

The ATF does not give a notice of approval, if that is what you’re asking, they just send the form. Form 4’s are paper copies sent by mail to your dealer, an e-filed form 1 is emailed to you if you go the diy route.
I want to be a little indignant that it took three months to mail the damn thing but I actually still haven’t put a round through the can yet.🤷‍♂️

I should note that a three month approval is not the norm. I purchased another can 5/15/19 that was approved 2/4/20. With the gap in approval I don’t think I fall into the bunched approval theory.

For you guys getting it less than a year how did you file?

Individual or Trust?

For me - Trust
Tax Stamp Cashed - 2/3/2020

Not really expecting anything until the end of the year.

All of my cans, form 1s and 4s, are individual.
I did have three approvals in the last year though, so it might have helped but I really doubt it.
