# Battle Tested PAC
**Battle Tested PAC** (FEC committee **C00962332**) is an independent-expenditure-only committee
registered **2026-09-25** at **Athens, GA**, treasurer
**[[Paul Kilgore]]**, contact domain `pdscompliance.com`. See [[PDS Compliance]].
## It is dormant, and that is now documented rather than assumed
| Filing | Received | Coverage | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Form 1 registration, file 2015118 | 2026-09-25 | — | Super PAC (independent-expenditure only), unauthorized |
| **Form 3X Q3, file 2016795** | **2026-10-04** | 2026-07-01 to 2026-09-30 | **All zeros** — no receipts, no disbursements, no cash on hand |
As of 2026-09-26 the committee had disclosed no money. The Q3 report is its first disclosure, and it reports
nothing. The committee exists on paper and has never moved a dollar.
A registration that holds a name and a bank account without spending is cheap, legal and reversible — it
costs a Form 1 and a quarterly filing, and it means a vehicle is ready if one is wanted. Whether this one
is ever used is the only open question about it.
**Trigger:** any Form 24, or a Q4 report with a non-zero line.
