Sent both my Form 1's in last week. They didnt waste any time cashing my checks, they were charged the day they got them. Wonder how long it will take? I filed a paper Form 1 July 11 2016, cause I couldn't get on Eforms, got my stamp back July 8th. I think the they are close to getting through all the Pre 41F. I seen someone on Instagram get 2 Form 4's back today , they were both Filed Post 41F, look like they were filed Mid July of last year.
The plot is beginning to scatter on NFA tracker... I think they are close to getting through the back log as well. Hopefully, times will drop to a month or two... I know the number of applications submitted has dropped dramatically.
I'm filling out a Form 1 as an individual for my Galil Ace. 4a states "Name and Address of Original Manufacturer and/or Importer of Firearm (if any)". The previous version simply stated "Name and Location of Original Manufacturer of Firearm". For imported firearms, in the past I would simply put the manufacturer's name, city and country. My Galil Ace is engraved with "IWI US, Inc. Harrisburg, PA" (importer) and "IWI - Israel" (manufacturer). For those modifying imported firearms, did you put both? It says "and", so I don't see how it's to be avoided, but the space is pretty limited. This seems like a pretty significant change that I don't believe has been previously discussed.
I'd put the importer in 4a, and the manufacturer in 4h as an additional marking...if it won't also fit in 4a.
I managed to cram them both in 4a. It should be acceptable, but we'll find out for sure in a year or so.
Question re: 4h and engraving:
Will I need my full name engraved or can I use my first initial and last name along with city and state?
Also, should I include all the BCM markings as well? i.e. Logo and caliber etc thats stamped into the mag well?
I'm pretty sure you'll need to engrave your full first name, but someone else can come along and confirm this for sure.

I've never done that on any Form 1 or Form 4, including the new 41F Form 1 that was just approved, and they've all been approved. The cartridge designation is what you'll put in 4C, though I don't know what to do if the actual cartridge is different than what's marked or if the receiver is marked Multi.
