Suppressors, SBR, SBS, Trusts

The steps in how to buy a suppressor break down as follows:

• Choose your suppressor. You’ll buy the suppressor prior to being able to take possession of it. Many suppressor owners refer to this as the stage where the suppressor is jailed until the paperwork is approved.
• Get a tax stamp. At the time of this writing, the ATF tax stamp is $200. It’s a price set by the federal government, meaning you will not find deals on this. The cost of this suppressor tax stamp is paid along with the suppressor itself.
• Decide whether you’re registering as an individual or an NFA trust.
  • Individual means no legal costs, less paperwork, and less chance of mistakes being made.
  • NFA trust has the benefit of allowing multiple person ownership – new owners can be adding to the trust at any time – and there’s property protection after death.
• Submit a Form 4 or a eform4 to the ATF through the dealer, whether in person or online. This process includes:
  • Personal information such as name, address, and social security number.
  • Make, model, and serial number of the suppressor.
  • Fingerprint cards.
  • Passport style photograph.
• Wait to be approved. The wait time typically varies. It depends on the backlog at the ATF.

  As suppressors have become more popular and accepted by mainstream gun culture, the number of available options has expanded greatly. Whatever type of silencer you are interested in Ducey's can help. Check out some at the link.
