Quoted: Question for you guys that know. If I submit a form(s) 4 now as an individual, and get it(them) approved quickly, can I then form a trust and transfer them over to the trust, or would I have to wait the 9 to 12 months for approval before transferring them? Getting them in my hands quickly would be a big plus, even if it took longer to transfer them, but I'd like to have everything in a trust so other family members could use them without my having to be there. Sorry if it seems like a dumb question, but I don't know what I don't know? Thanks in advance. View Quote You’d transfer each item to the trust with another $200 stamp but retain them in your possession. It’s a strategy. Not sure if it’s a good one. |

I’m 2 weeks in so far just waiting for silencershop to certify my suppressor to get it to the shop so they can submit it to atf I guess. Wish it would go faster so I can see if I get to get it fast like some are experiencing lately

I'm at 32 days for a eform 4 trust for a TBAC 22. I'm hoping it doesn't make it to 60 days with all this chatter, but I'm not going to hold my breath (much).

I may have made some terrible financial decisions in light of the quick approval times....(I might be waiting on six suppressors now ).
If quick approvals actually come through, I'm going to be in trouble because I don't have my mounts yet! |

The mailed to your door wait after approval takes a couple extra weeks. It’s worth it to me though. |

Quoted: Paying a government agency twice for a process I don’t think should exist in the first places sounds terrible to me too.

Paying the extra $200 wouldn't be so bad for just one item, I guess. I'm not crazy about paying it for several items though. I guess I'll take the plunge as an individual and when I check out my sons can inherit them. If I understand correctly, there is no transfer fee when someone dies and NFA items are inherited? |

Hopefully in the next week or two I might do two SBRs and a new suppressor. I've been looking at some Huxwrx suppressors to go on my new Geissele Super Duty.

Correct. It would be tax exempt transfer. The value in a trust(at least for me) has everything to do with possession while I’m still alive. My wife and I both have NFA items, if registered individually, possession/control of our items while we are alive would be needlessly complicated. I have nieces that enjoy shooting too, especially suppressed. I’d like for them to be able to use them in the future without me present too. |

Under 48 hours for me last week on an E-Form 1.
Salad days, baby! @BURN |

I was at my FFL today paying off my 3rd can, and was told the problem now is that demand is outstripping supply for certain brands.
Glad I ordered my last two when I did before ATF started handing out approvals like it was cool (which it is, but shouldn’t be necessary to purchase something harmless like a suppressor). I am grateful that cans are now becoming more of a “common use” consumer product. |

While I’ve only bought one through SS back in 2017, which took 16 months to get. This blows my mind, credit card is coming out!!

I'm going this morning to do an eFile Form 4 for a can at the local shop. They finally use a Silencer Shop kiosk. Hopefully approval is as fast as a lot I'm seeing here lately.

It blows my fucking mind that people will pay $200 to submit to the same procedures as an arrest to exercise a right. Obviously, I'm in the wrong here due to the exuberance.
The insane wait times weren't enough of an impediment so they got smart and decided rapid turn arounds are more useful for data collection and categorization. The left can't meme but the right sure as fuck can strategize. |

The cost for breaking tax law like the NFA to enjoy those nice things illegally is having your wife shot while holding your baby, or they’ll burn you alive in your church. I hate it too. But our previous generations have been ok with it for 90 years now. How is refusing to acquire those nice things now because 90 years of shitty previous generations allowing it to stand going to accomplish anything? |

I'm going to wait a bit longer. If thiese short turn around times become the norm I am going to SBR my 30+ year-old Auto Ordnance Thompson to get it into proper format - basically a semi-auto M1928.
With turn around times down to under a week the market for NFA items will become less stagnant. I didn't want to risk leaving my heirs with an albatross which might take months to offload. |

I’m going to have a hard time not buying a couple of cans.
Who makes the best rimfire suppressor? I’ll probably use it on rifles and handguns. |

Quoted: I’m going to have a hard time not buying a couple of cans. Who makes the best rimfire suppressor? I’ll probably use it on rifles and handguns. View Quote While this applies to any suppressor of course. It especially applies to rimfire cans. Pick what’s important to you, prioritize that, it’ll help narrow down your options. Stuff like modularity, ease of cleaning, lightest weights, shortest OAL/diameter. I like modular rimfire cans. Short configuration is great on compact hosts, and gassy/dirty hosts and long configuration on everything else. I also like materials that can be ultrasonic cleaned. Not all brands are on here but it can help when trying to compare. I like my AAC and Rugged rimfire cans. My EA Nyx Mod 2 should be delivered to my house this week. It’ll be the lightest rimfire I own at <2.5 ounces in short mode. |
