When I applied for my C&R, I called BATF. I have previously held both a C&R and a Class-I, so I wanted to know if I should fill out the application as a "renewal" or as a "new" application. Somehow - I got relayed over to a wonderful woman who gave me the head office (read: "Private Line") of the agent who heads up that Bureau in Atlanta. (He was as shocked as I was that I got transferred through on his private inside line..

Anyway - he was delightful and couldn't have been more gracious. He told me that when I applied, it was a "2-3 month period" to get the C&R - but was working on expediting the overall system... Maybe you are one of the first the beneficiaries of that "new & faster approval systems" he referenced!
