    Makes sense, a suppressor is a hearing saving device, and since saving your hearing infringes on obama-care, his buddies in the ATF don't want him to loose all those hearing related premiums.

    (please don't try to make sense of that statement, it will hurt your brain)

    What?!?!?!

    No offense Steve....but is this legit???

    This is what I have been seeing on the Net... (forums)

    Good afternoon:

    As you are aware, eForms has had performance issues for the past three weeks. We are diligently working with experts in the field to resolve the issues. Until we can get the issues resolved we will be implementing automated restarts of the server at 4:00 am, 9:00 am, NOON, and 3:00 pm eastern time. We have determined that the restart of the servers clears “stuck threads” on the servers and improves the overall performance of eForms. We realize that the unscheduled restarts were disrupting your workday and this will allow you to plan around the scheduled restarts.

    Restarts will take approximately one hour to complete during which time eForms will not be available. Again, this is only a temporary measure until a more permanent solution is implemented.

    Again, daily restarts of the eForms servers will be conducted daily at the following times until further notice:

    4:00 am – 5:00 am
    9:00 am – 10:00 am
    NOON – 1:00 pm
    3:00 pm – 4:00 pm

    Finally, Pay.gov has notified us that they will be upgrading their system on Saturday, February 22, 2014, from 6:00 PM to Midnight Eastern Time. Pay.gov has advised us that systems using pay.gov will experience a service outage during this period. This means that you will not be able to pay the tax for the eForms 1 and 4 during this time period. Forms can be created and saved to your draft folder until the upgrade is completed and the taxes can be paid.

    Thank you for your patience as we try to improve eForms.

    Sincerely,

    Lenora (Lee) Alston-Williams

    It would be so much easier just to dump the 1934 NFA and do away with the stupid paperwork and silly computer problems that were supposed to make the paper unneeded.

    It prolly in regards to paper forms. The SBR approval I got back this month was 3 days shy of one year. However, there was a delay of a month do to the ATF filling both original copies and not mailing me my copy. (that's also a good reason to call and know what the status of your paperwork is)

    I've also got 3 Form 1s in que right now that I sent in Sept 3rd. I'm thinking about doing an eform for a silencer for my open bolt semi MAC 10.

    11 months is the norm.

    Some E-File's are around 99 days.
