ATF eForm 4 Reduced Wait Times?

[waspocrew]

When the ATF says my form is "Approved". what exactly does this mean?
Thanks

It means you can go pick up your suppressor!

I didn't get the lighting fast approval others have posted, but woke up to a great email from the ATF today.

Dead Air Mask
Certified: 3/18/24
Approved: 4/23/24
Individual app through scheels

Hopefully I can get mine soon. Certified 6 days before you with CA.

I just got approved 5/2 for a Mask submitted 12/3/23 . It was a single person trust .

I have a few so maybe they figure that I can wait. This has already happened:

Primal - Approved and shipped 12/31/22
Sandman L - Approved and shipped 12/16/22
Ghost 45M - Approved and shipped 12/16/22
Mask HD- Approved and shipped 12/29/21
Sandman L- Approved and shipped 12/29/21

This is what's in the que. I might have Mask issues. A .22 with the volume turned up is just no fun at all

Mask HD - Waiting since 08/07/23
Mask HD - Waiting since 08/07/23
Mask - Waiting since 11/21/23
Primal - Waiting since 01/03/24
Nomad- Waiting since 03/30/24

I submitted an individual eF4 on 4-24 and it was approved 4-28. Four days.

I submitted an individual eF4 Friday and got approval today. Two business days. I have a friend who filed through the same SOT several weeks ago and is still waiting so there is still a lot of variability, but I'm impressed with my own turnaround time for approval.

The ATF is having trouble right now accepting eForms with name suffixes ("cadences") like Jr, Sr, etc..

I've been trying to submit eF4s on two devices for 8 or 10 days now and the software won't take them. SilencerShop has a notice that appears when I go to 'My Account'. Still up as of now:

I just entered the testing phase... Order placed this morning. We'll see. Sales tactic or real deal.

42 days after I started "the test" I got approval for my Masks and Primal. These are not the cans that I ordered March 2024. If nothing else the approvals have been consistently long coming.

Well, I take that back. These came faster than previous cans. The Primal was ordered in January 2024 and the Masks were ordered August 2023.

Individual or trust?

One person on the trust (that'll change when my last order comes in)

Sitting at 10 months right now
E form 4
Trust
Silencer Shop

Ironically I ordered one right before this one, and got it in 30 days or less because my local dealer surrendered their SOT, so ATF had to fast track all current applications.

This one was with a new dealer in my area, not that that matters. My assumption is that older apps are not priority at the moment however they are doing them.
