Well that sucks. Not like I won't junp through the hoops eventually, but I fully expect it to be a total s**t show for a few month after the law passes and was hoping to avoid that mess.I believe the ATF only processes the stamp (whatever it is they actually do that takes so long).
Once you get the stamp, then the FFL does a background check to release it to you.
-my simplistic understanding, which could very well be wrong-
