As for the SBR, around here you just need to fill out some paperwork and wait a month or so. A friend of mine has done it several times, apparently most of the gunsmith shops help you through the application process. I may do it with mine one of these days.
Also worth noting in regards to the 5.7x28, FN also makes a full sized pistol called the Five-Seven with a 20 round capacity. Supposedly it's a really sweet shooter with very minimal recoil and very accurate. It's on my short wish list.

More than a month. More like 6-18 months depending on what state you are in. Heck one shop submitted thousands of forms on the last day to register stuff as an living trust without having to re-include/re-check all members of the trust - whatever state they are in it will easily add a year to the backlog for anything submitted afterwards.
In addition to the time, you need fingerprints ($50-100) and a couple of passport photos ($10-20), the $200 tax stamp. No longer need CLEO sign off but they do get notified...
