I've accepted the fact that if I didn't bad luck, I wouldn't have any luck.
You did well. You got most of your money back. I'd call that a win, as much as it can be a least.Quote:

I've always worried about fly-by-night FFL's for NFA items that sit there for so long. As long as the ATF had been taking to turn around forms I'm surprised he hadn't started seeing this more often to be honest with you. I know in the end you're out LOTS of time but at least you were put right financially speaking so the situation could have been a lot worse. You might also mention your credit card company by name too and give them some props because they went above & beyond the call of duty right there. Worthy of giving credit where credit is due.
Now use this as an excuse to take advantage of that $200 Damn the Man rebate from AAC and couple it with the sale prices over at SilencerShop. I got a few already and my buddy just ordered up five (lol) because it's one of the sweeter suppressor deals I've seen in a while.
Jer,
As requested. First Bank Card (NRA card).
Well it seems like everything will be good to go on the 30th. Dealer/owner called friend and they set up a meeting time and date for the transfer. We will see when the date gets here.
That is outstanding news, and just about the only way to get your buddy his can.
Why did the dealer flake out to begin with?
Really don't know. I am going with him as I have a few questions. Like, why is he charging my friend an extra $50 for the transfer when the owner had the suppressor in his shop when friend purchased it. I won't drill him to hard until after friend has the can in hand though lol.
I'm going to guess that he held everything on the advice of his lawyer. Just a guess though.
