Efile status question

Yes, it can be legal to make a silencer. For everything Form-1, from silencer designs that are easily made, to filing forms with the BATF, to 3D modeling. Remember, you must have an approved BATF Form-1 to make a silencer. All NFA laws apply.

Efile status question

Post by vaeevictiss »

So i efiled for another form 1 suppressor friday, and immediately after i submitted i got an email saying:

"This is to advise you that the status of your eForms submission with the subject Permit/Control number has changed to PENDING RESEARCH"

Now i imagine this is due to the use of a model/maker not on the list, but the thing is, i did the same with my other form 1 cans and never got this email after. Also, when checking my form through the website, when you click on the "submitted/in process" dropdown, the only things shown are the ID number, created by, and created date. The "submitted date" is blank. Are they waiting for an action from me?

No action required on your part except to hope they look at it before 7/13/2016.

NEGATIVE. As long as it is submitted or postmarked prior to Jul 13 it falls under the old rules. It does not matter when they look at it.
