I realized that I had two outstanding forms that have been submitted for nearly 9 months. Looking at the NFA tracker, it appears forms from April are showing up, so I thought I would call into the ATF and see what was going on.
Got to talk to an extremely rude lady (par for the course with these guys), who, after being given the serial numbers, claimed there was nothing in the system at all. She told me that they had input everything in received since July 19th and told me that I needed to verify when the checks were cashed. Since I went through a dealer, I'm contacting them to double check, but I'm about 99% positive the forms went into the mail on March 28th. I even think I remember the dealer telling me the checks were cashed back in April or May, but I'm double checking with them to verify (as my memory isn't the best) and get the actual dates.
I swear I hate dealing with these mother@$@%#$ piece of @#$#$ bureaucrats. In what universe is the way they operate considered acceptable customer service? Oh wait, that's right, since they are the government, they can do whatever they want and we have no alternatives.
I would scream and curse at the top of my lungs if I wasn't sitting in my office at work.
9 frickin months possibly down the drain.
