Colorado form 1 & 4 transfer data / wait times

Form 4 Through Silencer Shop - Trust - 1 Responsible Person
Suppressor
Omega 9k

Check Cashed: 9/19/2018

I heard this .gov shutdown could affect wait times...

I have not called personally, but the NFA reddit is swamped with people claiming they have. They are reporting that the NFA is only processing forms for government and police, regular Plebs form 4 and form 1 paperwork is not being processed during the shutdown. It's not "essential". Checks are still being cashed, of course. The money is handled by a local bank and isn't directly attached to the ATF in any real way.

I ordered 2 suppressors from TBAC back in the middle of January 2018. TBAC took 13 weeks to get the things sent to my local dealer (and they messed up my order to boot). Both checks were cashed May 4. The ATF had just started processing early May forms when the shutdown happened. I will be over 1 year from order to in hand for these. It's stupid.

Edit to add - people were generally reporting 236 to 244 days from check cashed to approved right before the gvt shutdown.

Did you file with a trust or as an individual?

I just got off the phone with the Silencer Shop. They claim the ATF is dead in the water. I was going to purchase I can, but they didn't have exactly what I wanted in stock. I was going to compromise, but he talked me out of it since nothing is happening at ATF anyway.

Well, there goes my hope that my cans would be out of jail by hunting this year.

Rumor has it, if the ATF fails to respond and approve a tax stamp in less than three days, a transfer can happen.

Those two were submitted as individual.

Its a small price to pay for MAGA. I had a can in jail for over a year for no reason at all. Just normal speed for swamp things.

Update on mine.
2 suppressors from TBAC. Checks cashed May 4. Approved Dec 13, Mailed Dec 17. Dealer just called me today to say they had them.

ETA - Crap. I just checked. I placed my order on 1/11/18. 1 day short of 1 year to get these in hand. Ridiculous.
