I started looking at DIP’s website. They’re selling a package with the Boyd’s stock

I found that one already...   :thumbup:

@98Z5V, I think I've decided on the RART in .22 WMR. I like the Savage, but I'd be immediately ditching that factory stock. At least with the Ruger, I can live with the stock (even though I may swap it for one of those Boyd's "TactiCool/Pro Varmint/whatever they're calling it now" stocks at some point in the future. But I am a sucker for black laminate...

Now if my gun pusher will just come back from his July 4 lake trip, I can get one ordered...

The last time I called BATFE, they told me to expect my approval around mid-April.

Well, today is 4/10, so that's mid(ish) April, right?

I called today, gave them my serial number, name, and dealer's name, and much to my surprise, the nice lady said, "You should reach out to your dealer. Tell them to check their mailbox. You were approved March 25, and they should be getting your stamp any day now."

I haven't been this excited in a long time!

Got a text from my 'pusher today. Stamp's here! Now time to go fill out my 4473 and pick it up.

I'm trying to figure out how it took 28 days for an envelope to get from ATF to Oklahoma.

Alright, alright, settle down now!

I'll get some pics up later today. This whole Momma working night shift and me having a 3 y/o and a 10 m/o to get to bed every night (plus dishes, laundry, etc.) makes it difficult for Daddy to have his own time...

Also, as an aside, I ran across this yesterday...

https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/6126?s=1&r=1

Proposed legislation that would make Form 4 transfers of silencers operate in a similar fashion to NICS holds. BATFE would have 90 days in which to red light your transfer. If no red light after 90 days, the transfer proceeds.

They're obviously capable of doing the background portion of SOT transfers within 60 days -- look at Form 1s -- so why do Form 4s take an additional 8 months? I understand backlogging, but damn. From the time my Form 4 was pending to the time I was advised I'd been approved was no more than 60 days. It just sat there before that.

Okay, so what is the best way for us to make use of this info?

Pressure your legislators to get that bill through.  From the timing on it, when it was introduced, it looks like is was sidelined by the current La Corona #19 issues.  Get involved, get that fucker pushed through.  :thumbup:

Posted (edited)

H.R. 6126 has been referred to both the House Ways and Means Committee and the House Judiciary Committee.

At this point, I think the best pressure to apply is to any of your Congresspersons who are on either of those committees. Because if it doesn't make it out of committee, pressure on non-committee members won't make much difference.
