    2 form 4's, SBR and suppressor

    Mailed: Nov. 19th
    Check Cashed: Nov. 25th
    Pending: Feb 9th
    Approved: Feb 19th
    Received stamp: Mar 6th

    My dealer said he got another client's stamp before mine, while they had been approved after mine. So, don't forget the good old USPS in your equation.

    You should be approved any day now by what others are posting around the net... Did you go individual or trust route baboon???

    Trust. This one might go a bit long as it's not through my dealer. These are the gifts from a friend of a John's Guns Ruger 77/22, MKII pistol & a .308 suppressor. I got the feeling I'll have a different examiner on these.

    I just got word that the stamps are at my buddy's that gave me the John's Guns .308 suppressor & the suppressed Ruger MK II & 77/22.

    I won't have them in hand for another week as he is headed up to Colorado for a fishing trip.

    I'l post some pictures & video once i've got them in hand.
