41P Update - November 2015

[btq96r]

Is the window between now and when this rule takes effect the last chance to file with a trust and avoid all this, or does the Form 1 or 4 have to be approved before that date (1 July or thereabouts)?

[midtennchip]

It has to be in "pending status," whatever that means, by the effective date. It does not have to be approved by the effective date.

If you file a Form 1 thru efile, the system shows you if the application is in pending status or not, but there is no clear criteria for it. Generally, it appears that once the ATF receives the Form 1 or Form 4 and enters it into their system, it is "pending." Edited January 5, 2016 by midtennchip

When I've called to check on my stamps in the past, once they cash my check, the form is in pending status. I'm sure Chip would agree, if you were thinking about a trust, now is the time.

So once this takes effect, what are the benefits of having an NFA trust?  I'm seriously considering declaring one to get in under the wire for my first SBR, but if it's ultimately a waste of time, I'll just go the traditional route.

As I get it, at least these:

 

- adds people who can legally possess them besides yourself

- some advantages regarding inheritance since no NFA transfer necessary to relatives on the trust

- possibly exempt from some future firearm restriction laws

- bypassing CLEO sig (which isn't a big deal in TN, but it is in some places)

Bumping this up since we're <60 days from the action date.  Do anyone have any new info, or is it still get to "pending" by July 1st, or be stuck under the new rules?

Haven't seen anything officially mailed/emailed yet to us FFL/SOT holders.  But of course that doesn't mean much I've gotten letters months after something was officially implemented.

I just sent in two form 4's yesterday to beat the deadline.  I have a feeling the waits are going to skyrocket back to 10-11 months with everyone trying to beat the date.

I purchased my supressor from silencershop and they mailed the form 3 on 3/18 and the form 4 on 4/18 before the form 3 was cleared. Apparently they have cleared that method with the ATF. Hopefully that means I'm in line for the shortest wait.

I wish I could drop a form for a .300BLK can, but the money for a can is just an ill timed luxury at the moment.  Bad timing for it all, I suppose. 

 

Oh well, I still have my SBR, so I'm not totally out of the NFA loop.

While it will be a bigger nuisance afterwards, it won't be impossible.  When you can afford it, it is well worth it.

[Mindless-Focus]

It's July 13th is the deadline. That's what's been solicited.

[Wingshooter]

Dangit! The suppressor I want came back in stock late last night at silencershop. I went to order it few mins ago, and they're already sold out again!

:wall:

[Hozzie]

What suppressor?

Just put a form 1 in to beat the deadline. You can build it as funds allow.

I'd buy the can, not build one from parts.

Same here. I'm looking for a Griffin Armament Revolution 9. So far no luck. One of the area dealers has some on order... for a while... but no word when they would ship/transfer. I was hoping to get Form 4 in before July, but it doesn't seem likely. So with availability, longer Form 4 processing after July, I would appears I may get a suppressor Q3 next year. 

 

If anyone has any suggestions on where to source a Rev9 from, that would be appreciated. I called the local shops, PM'ed a couple vendors here (one replied), talked to Silencershop. I'll be be on the phones tomorrow and will widen my search area statewide.

[Wingshooter]

What suppressor?

Griffin Recce 7 Mod 3
