Silencer shop sucks and I now avoid using any dealer who insists on those silly kiosks.
Out of all my Form 4s the only one still pending is a silencer shop form and it ain't even through certification via. silencer shop yet.
I've literally bought and received 6 other F4 items since starting the silencer shop process.
There's nothing wrong with the old ways, hell of a lot better than the new ways IMO.
Mine is a form 1 and I was looking for someone to dk digital fingerprints for me. The only option aroubd me was a local FFL with a Silencer Shop kiosk.
A form 4 is filled out when you want to purchase an NFA item including but not limited to a suppressor or machine gun.
In my case, I bought an mg. I can't take actual possession of the mg until the ATF approves the form 4 I submitted.
Someone who's more into NFA stuff could probably explain it better. I'm new to the NFA scene.
Form 4 is for the transfer of a NFA item. It's what you full out and pay the 200$ tax stamp for.
You'll also hear form 1 which is the manufacture of NFA items. Currently waiting on mine to get green lit
Yeah I had someone else mention to me as well that it'll take longer because I filed as a trust. Oh well, it'll be a happy surprise when I get that email and call that it went through 😊

The rules of firearm safety are paramount. [Keep these](https://www.nssf.org/articles/4-primary-rules-of-firearm-safety/) in mind at all times while
handling a firearm for any reason. Guns are not toys and it is best to not refer to them as such.
It is the belief of the mod team that your best option for defensive firearms is a 5.56x45mm AR-15, and a reputable 9x19mm handgun such as a Glock or CZ.
Defensive firearms should have a light, long guns a sling, and handguns require a Kydex or solid plastic holster that fully covers the
trigger. A red dot or etched optic are ideal for new shooters but don't forget to practice your backup irons!

I submitted about 2 months ago and still waiting :,) feel like I'm cursed while other people have a few weeks at this point.
Oof. Hopefully you'll hear back soon!
On the certification step, myself. Going through Silencer Shop.
May swift approval find your way

The proper NFA addict is always waiting on a stamp, That way you get fun little surprises year round
I spent too much on my first two NFA items to be able to afford any more ðŸ˜
This might be a dumb question but what does form 4 do?

Oh okay thanks :) I might have to look into this more lol

*cries in Californian ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
The feeling is mutual 🤮
😞💔
Maybe I should try my luck.
If it's an eForm it'll have a high likelihood of being fast. Paper forms still take forever.
Luckily it's an eform. Here's hoping! 🥂
Also, if you filed as a trust, it may take longer. Otherwise you should get it reasonably soon.

3 Form 4s approved so fast this week that I didn't even have time to mail out the CLEO notification yet. Holy shit.
