    Ideal way to do it is to find an FFL who sells NFA items, has the suppressor you want in stock, is set up to do eForms, and has an indoor range. That way, at least you can use your suppressor at their range while you wait for the stamp.

      Yeah, I know you can do "conjucal visits" to your suppressors that are in jail if you bought from an FFL with a range. Unfortunately, I wanted a Hybrid 46m and the only local shop that had them in stock was one without a range. I wish I could just put the purchase out of my mind and forget about it, but I just can't! I'm like a kid waiting very impatiently for a christmas day that probably won't come for another 10 months, lol.

      Did you order through Silencershop and shipped to a Silencershop dealer? If so, they shouldn't have charged you a transfer fee. You should contact Silencershop and let them know that that FFL is charging their customers frivolous fees. If you didn't go through Silencershop and a Silencershop dealer, then I can understand why they would charge you and extra transfer fee. However, I can't understand why they wouldn't charge that fee when you paid for everything else a year ago. It does sound like they're just trying to extort you for some extra money.

    This entire process with SS has been terrible. 1st suppressor certified end of July. 2nd and 3rd certified end of August. The FFL did not know what to do, SS over promised and under delivered. The ATF said there intent was 90 day approval. SS promoted the 90 approval as actual approval time. You cannot cancel your order without taking a huge restocking penalty and you only get store credit. There will b3 a long wait for a refund on your tax stamp. This entire process has been very disappointing. I only committed to purchasing the suppressors, because SS promoted the 90 day approval.

    think im about to try and bail one out of jail here soon for the first time haha. Gonna do the suppressor first i think since it takes so long then do a form 1 and build an sbr. Excited for this build as its my first nfa item. Always wanted a shorter rifle with a suppressor though they look like so much fun to shoot.

      Thank U. Yes until I looked into adding a suppressor to my AR-15 I had no idea. My thought was to help reduce flash & sound in a home defense weapon. Is it just ATF adding more & more rules like with pistol ARs vs SBRs? Or this is just more of what has been?

      How do you know when they submit your form 3 ? And did anyone else get a docusign email form silencer shop that filed as individual?? Please help lol

      For my Form 3s, I asked. It’s not something FFLs actively keep you updated on because it’s not really something you need to know.

      I was over 90 days on both the ones I received so it’s definitely a possibility.

    This hasn't aged well. Seriously, they're typically now taking anywhere from $180 to 195 days. It's only getting worse

      @@HaiTran yep. I'm on day 160. On Reddit there are nfa groups charting the data. The amount of approvals per week steadily drops. Approval times increase.its trending to be worse than paper forms. By the year end it will for sure be 250 days or more.

    eForms is a complete shitshow. Average approvals since you posted this are now up to 200+ days. Nowhere near the "estimated 90 day approval". It's better than Paper, but it still sucks

      Yup, I have 2 suppressors at 160+ days at the moment.
