On December 25th - in the midst of the panic - I decided to get myself a Christmas present. I contacted Greg at K&E Arms and asked about a Huntertown Arms Guardian 9. Greg got me a price quote super quick, ordered the suppressor and took payment via PayPal.
Today - January 21 - we both had the day off and I finished my trust paperwork. I went over to Greg's house and filled out the remaining paperwork while we drank a beer and chatted. Greg will be submitting the paperwork this week and then it's only a matter of time...at this point, the approval process seems to be running about 6 - 8 months. I'll post updates as I get them (check cashed, pending, approved, stamp received). By the way, Greg has been great to work with and I am looking forward to making more purchases (NFA or otherwise) through him in the future.  Here's hoping for a quick turn around on my tax stamp!  Edited to add: January 21, 2013 - Paperwork turned over to Greg February 4, 2013 - Paperwork submitted by Greg (2 weeks for his approval to come back) March 7, 2013 - Check Cashed May 7, 2013 - "Pending" December 23, 2013 - Stamp arrives January 10, 2014 - Picked up the suppressor from Greg Last edited by Benja455 on Thu Oct 17, 2013 11:03 am, edited 2 times in total. |

Thanks for support guys!
I happened to be searching the net for suppressor related stuff and found this: http://www.ick.bz/firearms  Quote: This is a handy brochure to keep in your range bag if someone asks you a question about suppressors...or for your local shop, class 3 dealer, or gun club to distribute. |

Update: The check was deposited yesterday.
At the current pace of processing and approvals, I'll be lucky if I get the stamp by October. I guess it will be a 2012 Christmas gift to myself and a 2013 birthday gift to myself. |

It's odd that it took them 6 weeks to cash your check. Usually it's a week, max....

Get ready for the longest ass wait of your life. Mine took 8mo approx. chip called me out of the blue one day, says " brad, have you been a good boy?"
I says " DON'T F*** WITH ME CHIP!!!" He says "good news." I says "YEAHWHAT!!" He says " I just saved a bunch of money on car insurance by switching to geico" "GODDAMMITJUSTTELLMETHEREALGOODNEWS!" " you can come pick your suppressor up now" "I'm in the car now, be there in 10mins" _________________ I have +30 feedback on the "other" site... |
