Days approval, gonna be hard to resist next free stamp or BOGO on things I want. Would think the manufacturers would do deals with the approval times, but will it last....
I'm over a year on a couple & several months on others. My state rep has been no help & the nicsliason email never replies

You can always cancel the one over a year and resubmit, perhaps the best option.

Be aware of legislation being put in place to collect information about your gun ownership through your children during hospital visits (…under the guise of “safety”).

Would the weapons be protected if they were in a Trust?

My wife was asked by her Dr and she answered without thinking. I used my heart attack as my good cause, so had to get a Dr's note.

Other than that I answer nonya.

The census also asks some invasive, nonya questions. I answer only the required question (how many people live at my address) and leave the rest blank. Last time, they sent someone by twice to try and get answers to the other questions and each time they asked a question, I said "two."

Unsure of what to build with Geissele complete lower (Aside from lightweight being the goal)

I have a complete Geissele SD lower sitting around, but not sure what I want to build with it. I do know that the goal here will be lightweight. The goal will be to have it weigh about 5 lbs before accessories & can are added. It will just be a range toy.
I'll likely swap some of the existing lower parts with lighter parts, but the receiver itself & trigger will stay. Well, maybe I will replace the trigger with a Larue MBT-2S I have in the parts bin and sell the SSA-E X Lightning bow lol.

It will be run suppressed full time. Kicking around the idea of finally diving into the world of low mass BCGs and adjustable gas blocks. I do know that will end up with a Fostec handguard on whatever I build.

I already have a 16" barrel AR, 10.5" AR pistol & 14.5" AR along with a 22LR rifle, 22LR pistol & AR9 pistol. I did think about doing 300 blackout, but not really wanting to add anymore calibers. Outside of that, I have no clue what to build. I know I don't want to build a dupe of what I already have.

I have a credit with Silencershop that almost covers a tax stamp so trying to figure out what can I should buy next.
List of what I have now is below. I don't think it'll be another 22LR can, but not ruling it out just yet. No need for another shotgun can for sure.
The only calibers I have are 9mm, 22LR, 5.56/.223 & 12GA.

VersaX 12GA
Oculus 22
Q Erector 22
YHM Turbo T3

I bought a Scythe-Ti yesterday. Should get my paperwork done today or tomorrow. Dealer said they are getting approvals back in a week in many cases.

OK ever since I watched "No country for old men" I've wondered about shotgun cans. Does it actually work? Do you have to shoot only slugs? Do you still need ear protection?

BTW looks to me like you got all the calibers covered except maybe a .308 can and bolt action with glass to marry to.

That's a killer lineup. I'd personally go with another 9mm can. Do you shoot pistols or PCC's most? For PCC's, the new B&T SQD-M looks pretty awesome. For pistols, I'm a fan of my CGS Mod 9. It's extremely light and a balances well.

You could also do something "different". Once my can collection hit a good saturation, I started going for unique one offs. I just ordered an integral 10/22 barrel and will soon be in need of an MP5SD can.

SD/integral stuff is wicked fun.

Alaskan 360 or Hybrid 46M, they can do practically anything centerfire pistol or rifle.

Seriously where are the deals with times slashed!?!?!? My SS pickup shop said they would work a deal on a 46M & rimfire combo last time, if only my Dec 23 stamp would get approved. SilencerCo usually has spring deals, BOGOs though in the early summer.

Thanks!

It just took almost a year for a couple of mine to get approved. I've never had one come back quickly

I only have 1 AR9 pistol & 1 AR22 pistol. The Obsidian will likely be on that AR9 most of the time now.

I just got the Erector and it shifts POI several MOA high. Going to try running it with an o-ring on the barrel next time. If it's still crap, time to contact Q.

The VersaX is still in jail + I still need to send the Mossberg 500 out for cut & thread so haven't used one yet.

Range I go to only allows slugs.

Not planning on adding any other calibers except for maybe 300 Blackout

Blackout AR pistol. Best part is with 300BLK being so popular there are plenty of subsonic ammo choices.

How much quieter is suppressed 300 Blackout vs suppressed 5.56? Don't want to do it if minimal gains
