We’ve been working closely with the ATF to take all the information contained on a Form 4 and embedded it into a barcode on the first page. This ground-breaking setup allows ATF staff to simply scan this barcode, which instantly populates the appropriate fields of the ATF database. By utilizing our barcoded forms, the ATF data entry personnel will no longer need to manually type tedious information into their system. A quick scan turns what would’ve taken several minutes into mere seconds, and then they’re on to the next form. This new approved system will benefit both the consumer and dealer by:

Increasing ATF Speed
•In testing the new barcoding system we’ve already submitted over 3,000 Form 4’s to the ATF, and the ATF time to process these forms has improved tenfold.

Increasing Efficiency
•Silencer Shop error rate for submitting post-41F Form 4’s with the ATF was close to zero before and now with the new approved process, it’ll be even lower.

The industry-wide error rate is close to 50% for forms submitted post-41F to the ATF, which we’re also working to address with our Form 4 Generator.

i called the NFA section today and asked what the approval time was for form 4. and they said currently 9 months. That is rediculous.

I sure hope the National hearing act gets passed.

Did they get thru the July '16 madness yet? Should speed up a lot after that since people wouldn't have been as willing to do all the work to get a stamp now

I do not know. I was at Modern Outfitters and was talking about suppressors and one of their folks said they were told to expect approvals in the vicinity of 60/90 days. It was that way when I bought my forst two. I mentioned that to the person at NFA and he said he did not see that anytime in the future,
