suppressor jail time

[whoop]

My OGL was in jail for 4 days. it will be interesting to see what the wait time will be starting jan 1st.

 

[khuber84]

I have 2, maybe 3 more supressors on my horizon, and I'll likely buy them as soon I find them in stock, cuz availability and approval times likely gonna be a poop show come 2026.

 

[displacedtexan]

I've got 2 still waiting at 3 days.

May get another one or 2 before the year is over.

 

[thinhorn_AK]

I got one approved today, 4 days to the minute, on a Saturday no less.

 

[E.Shell]

I had one approved in 37 hours a couple weeks back. I decided I'd rather have another one now and pay the tax than to watch everything go out of stock and wait times get blown out after January.

Is it really predicted to see increased waits and out of stock come 2026?

Because these companies know what's coming so, at least the stock shouldn't be as big an issue.

Most supressor companies right now cannot keep up. It's just gonna get worse.

US is offering buy now with Jan 1st shipping, other outfits may be doing the same?

Impossible to say. It sure is a good way for companies to get people buying a lot of silencers though. Every dealer is like “the wait is going to get crazy, better buy it now”….who knows what’s going to happen but I panic bought another one just in case the wait times increase.

Is in January 1st shipping? Or January 1st submission to the ATF without having to pay for a tax stamp? It seems like on January 1st the entire backlog of people that purchased and waited to save the money will get submitted. Who knows how many that really is though.

Has anyone here ever had issues with the photo on the Form 4? I made a purchase online back in April and had to submit my own photo. I paid to have one done that meets passport requirements, as I was instructed to do by the online retailer. That purchase went though fine. However, I bought another can yesterday, but this time it was in-person at a local store where they do their own photographs. I opened my email to look at the submitted form, and the photo they took would not meet the passport requirements. I'm a little worried there may be a problem, but the store is a large chain retailer, and they sell multiple cans every day.

I'm on day 5 of my wait and its making me sad.

I mean, I've waited 50 years. A couple weeks or a couple months ain't gonna kill me.

I’m not saying it would, I’m just not convinced that anybody has any idea how fast or slow things will get in January.

Day 9 here.

I talked with the shop that my can is currently in jail at on Saturday, they said they haven’t seen an approval in 3 days.

Hopefully we both get ours out of jail soon!

 

[Stango424]

I bought 2 on Saturday the 6th and they were both approved on Wednesday the 10th at 3:26 and 3:30 AM MST. Only 4 minutes apart which was cool .

 

[displacedtexan]

I bought 2 on the 9th, they both got approved today about 20 minutes apart.

Almost exactly 7 days. Early afternoon to early afternoon.

yeah, good point. maybe the move is to have it shipped to your SOT early and then submit the forms on Jan 1 or after. on the US site you can go ASAP, or hold until Jan 1.

Right I’ve seen all sorts of places offering to hold it until then but I think that just means they submit it on January 1. That way you don’t risk things getting sold out but you might get stuck in the backlog of atf forms.

Exactly.

I was planning on one of the two I just bought. Don't even have a gun for the other one. Lol

Still might buy another can this year.
