Suppressors, How-to, Facts, Myths, Fun, Questions, ect

Recommended Posts

FYI, I started my paperwork on Monday afternoon for a new suppressor.  Just picked it up.  Was approved less than 48 hours from the time I paid for my stamp.  Approved in a trust. 

A buddy of mine was approved yesterday.  Submitted 1 hour before me.  Also in a trust.

Suppressors transfer from manufacturers to dealers on a form 3.  Only dealers that have a SOT can transfer suppressors that are on a form 3.  You have an option to do paper forms, old school or e-file .  E-file has been really fast.  Paper forms have been taking 9 months.  

Privately owned suppressors that are on a form 4 may be sold to a person in the same state on another form 4.  If the person is out of state, it has to go to a form 3, at a SOT, then transferred to a dealer in the new state, on the form 3.  The new dealer will transfer it on a form 4 to the new owner.  Each time a nfa item transfers involving a form 4, it costs 200.  So form 4 in state costs 200.  One out of state is 400, plus any dealer fees. 

Privately owned form 4 to form 4, currently can only be done on paper form 4s.  So plan on waiting 9 months.

That would be awesome. Get it same day with just a background check. Just like buying a firearm. Hopefully, that would eventually bring the price down.

That's the one. I have known Harlan since I was about 11-12yrs old when I taught myself how to reload. His shop was the closest to me that had reloading supplies, so I spent alot of money over the years with Harlan on guns, ammo, and reloading supplies. 

I've known Harlan since he worked at Jumbo Sports and then he was at Randalls for years. My son worked part-time with him and now sees him at gun functions and range days. He's a good guy.
