I want to “roll my own” suppressors now that no registration is required as a GOA member.

I know that markings are required, but my question is about the S/N.

I understand the other marking requirements, but what does “approved” serial number mean? With out a form, what makes it approved? Does it meeting the requirements of characters make it approved? Or do I still need some permission slip from the gov?
