No, I'm not sure I want to go through the wait from approval to CLEO notification/waiting period unless I have to. I've got a couple of really good dealers local to me that have my prints and photo on file and normally have great stock. However, neither carry Diligent Defense so I gave CA a try.

Ordered 20 July, just sent my EFT over. Now begins a bit of the wait.

Certified.  Took a whole ass 5 min from start to finish for 2 cans.  Compare that to my dealer who uses SS, which takes about 10min per can.

Ordered my first can online (second can in total)!  Had to order a print kit and mail them so that delayed things a little, but got the email to sign documents today!  Already trying to decide what to buy next.  Need a .308 can, but I feel like I should buy a .22 pistol and threaded barrel for my 10/22 and then order a .22 can.  or two.

Ordered 7/13
Received 8/13

That was a good feeling having UPS pull up and hand me a box with a new toy.  Like Christmas.  The entire experience was fantastic, trying to figure out what to order next!

Going great so far. Purchased 3 cans last week on July 19th and 21st. Received email asking to create a NFA profile and submit passport style photo and EFT file for prints, immediately did so on the 19th.

Got the Docu sign emails yesterday, did not hesitate to create a signature and complete the forms for submission. All three was ready to certify and submitted today by 12:30pm.

Smooth as glass so far. All individual so hopefully will receive approvals in the next 5 days or so. Received two eForm 1's from July 16th today so 7 days there(first submissions on my own and didn't bungle them up) for SBR's.

ETA...Print Scan ran out of select UPS Stores was a breeze and had EFT file the same day emailed and downloaded. Cost was $65 and have to make a appointment through Print Scan website for ATF prints.

I did this when I purchased my last Surefire from them.  communication was great and 2 dudes showed up to my door and handed the box with suppressor inside.   Took 30 seconds and they were gone.  I don't remember If I had to sign anything.  Probably did.

I think I was 2 business days (middle of week) from ordered to actually submitted. 5 calendar days for approval, then 2 business days (middle of week) for the cleo notification to get sent. 9 calendar days total. That was Wednesday, so I am hoping to have it in hand in about a week and a half.

Ordered a Recce 5 from Griffin on July 1. UPS delivered from Capitol Armory today. I took a few days to get the eform 4 certified since we had just gone through a hurricane and were without power. The eform 4 approval took 23 hrs.

Nothing is ever easy, but got two individual eform 4s back today.

3/25:  Dissaproved/Incomplete
6/5:  Approved


Will wait a day or two before calling CA on the 3/25 one.  I figure they'll shoot me an email.

CA already got back to me on the 3/25 form and resent the form 4 which I signed.

Also because I'm an idiot and couldn't spell sheriff, I had to call them about the 4473 for the 6/5 form.  They deleted it and resent it and I double checked the spelling this time.

In the one I recently received, CA had the shipping label created the day after the CLEO accepted and shipped it on day 8, after waiting the prescribed 7 days by law.

All their correspondence had a range of time these steps could take but mine were always meeting or exceeding their windows

Sign up for UPS MyChoice and you can get your tracking number much sooner. I generally get my tracking number 5 - 6 days prior to my can being shipped from my in-state FFL. I suspect they create the shipping label and send it along with the can to your in-state FFL once your CLEO accepts the F4.

I've got MyChoice but haven't received a notification yet. I may try calling CA to see if I can pick up from the in state FFL. The address on my form 4 is a dealer 1.4 miles from me... Not sure if they can do that though.

ETA: I keep seeing everything saying it will ship UPS ground. What did I choose USPS and pay that rate for at check out? Was that the CLEO notification?

I don’t think it’s legal to send silencers through the USPS, or maybe just not to non-FFLs.  I’ve always chosen UPS.  I’ve ever seen a separate charge for the CLEO notification.

I'm thinking it must have been for the CLEO notification. It gave 3 or 4 options and I selected the cheapest one which was USPS First Class for $29.95.

I don’t think that’s correct.  There is no way USPS first class costs $30 for a couple of sheets of paper.  Also, you don’t get a choice on how the CLEO notification is sent.  It has to be sent certified mail.  You can’t choose UPS or other delivery services, and you can’t choose first class instead of certified mail.

My 2nd order went way faster than the 1st batch.

From the day I received my approval to having the suppressor was right at 2 weeks.

The 1st time, I think it was about a month or so. Had to do with LEO notification.

Looks like the in state SOT (1.4 miles from me ) dropped my suppressor off with UPS today. Supposed to deliver tomorrow but I put a hold on it to pick it up Thursday (soonest) as we might not be around when UPS usually delivers. That'll put me at 24 days from order to in hand.

Just ordered a YHM T3 through them, Form4 went "in process" on August 12th, so we will see how it goes.  I already had EFT prints so that saved time for the whole thing.  

Everything so far has been quick and easy, worst thing was the 5 minutes on hold waiting for the person to certify, and considering how long my dealer has made me stand around, I'm not complaining.  

Hope it works out, my favorite dealer closed, and the other person around here that does NFA stuff is just a pain in the ass.

I purchased my first ever can on August 22nd.  Went with a Diligent Defense Enticer S.  Did my fingerprints at the UPS store on the 23rd through Print Scan.  I have not had time to do any of the other stuff yet though.  Once I create the CA profile will I be instructed to create an ATF profile as well?  Is that when I will need to take a pic of myself?  Can any of this be done on my iPhone or computer only?  I'm new to all this so trying to figure out all the steps that are required.  I do plan on going individual.  Any advice and help would be much appreciated.

you can take a selfie w iphone and upload to your CA profile which they need to submit your form4.

you can make an eforms profile now with atf and write down your username, pw, and pin number. you’ll need the pin number when you certify eform4 on shared computer screen with CA.

I ordered a Huxwrx 762 from Capitol on July 27th, got everything squared away with CA on August 1st, and the ATF notified me of the submission of my form on August 2nd. A little over a month later I'm still waiting. Hope it won't be much longer.

Yeah, it was faster than all my other ones by at least 2 months, but still disappointing when I hear of a 24-48 hour turnaround.  Good luck on yours.

10/2/24: Suppressor received by me

Total time: 35 days, painless. For reference, earlier this year I ordered my OCM5. The OCM was an "in-store" purchase (ordered online and sent to local FFL, e-filed F4, etc.), and took the same amount of time with a 30 day F4 approval. YMMV, but my CA/Griffin experience was stupid simple and painless.

I'm in the middle of getting a Griffin Armament can through CA, so far the process is simple

Griffin cans are great! Which can did you get? I own a Dual Lok 5 and a HRT556 and both are really great cans!

I got the shipping notification for my Sico 46M today. Capitol Armory has been great, the wait for the Feds to approve my first trust NFA item was torture though.

Dang, four months. I know that's still quicker than it has been but I've gotten spoiled to SBR Form 1s that have been approved in days.

I ordered a Huxwrx 762 from Capitol on July 27th, got everything squared away with CA on August 1st, and the ATF notified me of the submission of my form on August 2nd. A little over a month later I'm still waiting. Hope it won't be much longer.

2024-09-16 Dropped off

My local FFL took 5 days from printing the shipping label to dropping the can off at UPS yesterday.  :/
I got it today.

Question for those who have gone through the process - I got my form 4 approved in about 31 hours by ATF.  I received the e-mail from CA to fill out the 4473 and sign it which I did a week ago and haven't received any further e-mail updates since.  What is the big delay between signing the 4473 and CLEO notification getting sent?

The tools site says "Our local team is reviewing your completed 4473 and provided government-issued documentation. This process may take up to 3-4 business days to complete."  It's now business day #6 for me, so just curious if anyone knows.
