My latest can went "in process" on 1-16-26. it was approved on 1-28-26. Subtract the 3 day weekend for MLK day, that's a 9 working day turn around time.

It’s been nice to see these suppressor approvals turning around so quickly after waiting months not long ago!

I’m getting ready to submit a couple form ones for action I intend to build SBRs on, anybody know the current ETA on form one approvals?

Just got a return email from NFA stating that it was approved on the 20th. I called the dealer and he apologized, saying he missed the email that he received. Picking it up today.

I have been wondering how things will go after Jan 1st. Sometime between now and Easter I want to get one for my 300BO's. What is slowing me down is I don't know which one to get. What I want is the absolute quietest and first round pop is a big consideration. I purchased my first one a DA Mask from the local Scheels on a trust which was a total electronic submission and it took almost 15 months to come back. I'm hoping they get tired of spinning their tires for no financial gain and start selling them like handguns. 4473 and local sheriff background check.

i would go with a Rugged very quiet and affordable. Razor 7.26

ATF site says 6 days, but the thread on Reddit I checked has it at more like 12. I submitted a form 1 to SBR a couple days ago and will follow up with how long it takes

Awesome, the shop I talked to was talking a bit more than that so I’ll be curious what happens. Thanks!

One of two was approved today waiting on the second. Today is day 12. Yes its faster.

Based on my experience, which is approval in 12 days, but no email to show that, I’d either check with the NFA or your FFL. I got mine and I’m happy. Could have been 9 days ago. JMO

I bought two from silencer Central right before the ATF shut down before Christmas. Approved the next day!
