So this thing should ship to the FFL address that I put down on the website. And once it gets there they call me to come in and do the paperwork/fingerprint/tax stamp right? I ordered it from Mile High Shooting Accessories.
Worth it to have my gunsmith install the mount? It looks like it comes with the “peel” washers to get the brake in the right position. Doesn’t look too hard I guess.
Anything else a guy needs to know about these things? I’ll be running it on my Ridgeline 6.5 PRC for the most part. Eventually I’ll get a mount for my 300 wsm too.
Going to be a long wait, but I’m excited. 8)

Once you get it out of NFA jail you will wonder why you didn't do it sooner.

I finally “pulled the trigger” on a suppressor today. Thunderbeast Ultra Gen 2 7”. I ordered it with the internal CB brake mount.You need to contact your chosen dealer and find out what their policies are. They may or may not handle the Form 4 or the fingerprinting, or the tax stamp.

I have the exact same supressor in jail since February 25th. I am hoping that I have it by hunting season. I'll let you know how it shoots.
Post by: STEVO85 on June 20, 2021, 07:27:20 PM
2nd piece of advice is to go ahead and get a .22 can as well because they are amazing, and shooting them is so much more enjoyable with the can on.

Anyone heard of silencer central? They claim suppressors in as little as 8 weeks, and shipped directly to your door :dunno:

No such thing. Suppressors are heavily taxed by the feds and the approval wait is long and tedius. It's illegal for them to ship directly to you, much like it's illegal to direct ship a firearm now.

Interesting, I don't see how they circumvent the federal approval and delivery process. Even after being approved the silencer still has to be delivered via form 4473. I did watch the video but he didn't mention an 8 week turn around. I'd be interested to see how they actually deliver the suppressor.

Reading the website linked, it looks like they set up your trust, send in your packet, then send the can to their closest dealer to you and you would pick it up there once you get approved.
One of my local dealers is an indoor range so at least you can still play with your item before your stamp arrives.
Post by: PNWNick96 on June 29, 2021, 12:21:29 PM
It's not impossible to get a form 4 approval that quick just highly unlikely. Typically the fastest way would be to order a form 1 suppressor kit and go through the form 1 process. That can take as little as 5 weeks or the same length as a form 4, just depends. The kit can ship directly to you but you can't drill it out until you have your paperwork back.

I don't believe that is true. I ordered a suppressor from them about 2 months ago. They handled all of the paperwork except the fingerprints obviously. They have not asked for where I preferred them to ship it to. Also, I believe it would be illegal to use the suppressor without having it approved.

Well everything is submitted. The wait begins. They told me they’ve been having some finished in as little as 4 months lately. I won’t keep my hopes up tho.From stamp cash to today I'm at 191 days. The person I spoke with at the fed said they are averaging 210 days right now. I'm hoping to have mine in time to sight in and use it during our youth hunts. But I'm not to optimistic.

Good luck with that, when I bought mine they told me they thought I would have it before August. Here we are 6 months after that. If they have sped up, that is great.

If you started the process in one state then moved to another you will need to notify atf and make an amendment i believe. verify with your dealer.
Post by: dreadi on February 26, 2022, 09:51:41 AM
The new eforms is supposed to be around 90 days. I am sure it will be longer on the front side but it will be shorter than paper submissions as all the documentation points can be verified automatically instead of manually. This eliminates the wait for review and puts it right into the stamp issue que assuming no errors or issues.

We're two months into Form 4 being live on eForms and we haven't seen a wave of approvals yet. So no one really knows what to expect. I thought it was interesting that many companies were advertising the possibility of approvals in 90 days.

Did mine through Silencer Central. Can't wait! Hope to have mine by my Birthday in March, sooner would be awesome! :)Considering what you've had to go through with the saga of your new home I feel bad for saying this but FWIW I'm nearly a full year in waiting on three new cans from Silencer Central and still haven't heard a word from them. Others I've talked to were around a year on their approvals from SC also. Hopefully yours will come much sooner but be prepared for it to take at least a year.
Post by: STEVO85 on February 28, 2022, 06:16:57 PM
I did mine while I was in Tennessee. Silencer Center. Wonder if the state it wad dine in will matter?

You will probably want to check with them asap. I believe your ID has to match the address you put down and your current address. Otherwise you will have to redo everything and start the wait again. I also believe the only way around that is if you are active military and were given new orders so you had to move. I'm pretty sure you can then notify the atf and give them a copy of the orders for the move and then they will proceed as normal.
A member on here was the first one at their shop to submit a e-file form 4 the day it opened up and he hasn't got it back yet. The next month will be interesting to see if they start coming back in the estimated time frame or not. That reminds me, I need to get to work on a couple form 1 sbr's as well.

I noticed they charged my $200 really early on, maybe a week or so after applying. Hopefully the process is getting quicker. I did once have a security clearance to work on the B-2 bomber in the early 90’s, maybe that helped?? I’ll never know.
These days it's paid at the time of submission with eforms.
