I mean, purely anecdotal, but I had a close friend who had to do the process and it took over six months of waiting. Not difficult I guess, but it did take a long time…
I’d still consider the high cost a bigger hurdle for full auto than even a few month wait time. What the wait times used to really be killer were cheaper items like SBRs.
Yeah I’ve heard (no confirmation- so take this as pure gossip) that somebody was starting to kick the ATF in the butt a bit for intentionally slow walking reviews, which could have potentially led to litigation they didn’t want.
The eform system is really streamlined these days. Cost is the way bigger hurdle now.

When did it happen? I well know it used to take months and months, but in the last year or so 10 day turn arounds are the average for a transfer.

Last year! Sounds like it’s changed since then.

Not surprised. Same friend waited over a year once for a different tax stamp. Can’t imagine why other than intentional slow rolling.
