Gahh, Im up to 3 weeks on my first form 4 and a week on another. Logically I shouldnt even be worried about it, but seeing all the couple day approvals, its got me feeling some type of way.

Will have one submitted soon so we*ll see if I get lucky on a quick return, my fastest form 4 was 140 days a couple months ago.

A friend of mine just had one turn around in 45 hrs. E form 4 individual. Wow, makes me want to spend some $.

I filed Sunday 1030am and approved 130pm Wed.
My dealer Is seeing similar quick returns for most but if you go pending for a regular transfer then they seem to take longer

Has anyone filed an eForm4 and had to mail in their fingerprints and have received a pretty fast approval?

Problem up here in Centre County is there isn't anyone (State College/Bellefonte area) who will do digital FP's and save them to a .eft file for you. The places that have the capability won't because they are tied to SilencerShop and won't do them for someone just stopping in to get them on a .eft. The other place (a place that does identity/background check stuff) that really could do them just won't, they only do FP's for specific reasons and they are hard copies and get sent to the FBI by mail. The closest place I have heard of is at a UPS Store in Ebensburg/Ducansville area.

I filed an electronic form 4 on 5/6/24 and regular finger prints were sent that day by fed ex. Dealer says some are coming back approved before the prints are even delivered. For me, so far crickets! Last one a couple of years ago was about 340 days.
