Trust

3 business days with a Single Shot Trust.

I too worried about it for no good reason. The longer YOU wait, the longer it will be before you can enjoy it.
 
Submitted form 4 Sunday evening and was approved this morning at 8am. This is the second suppressor this year for me. The first one was exactly the same, submitted on Sunday approved on Wednesday but it was an individual.

Seems crazy, because my surgeon friend did a trust this year through a business with the kiosk and it took 6 months, I just go through a friend that has a little business and no kiosks, but still uses Silencer shop. I don't have to understand it, but I am enjoying it!

Yep... Always has been a gov't cluster!
I can go in a gun shop and get approval to buy a gun with a 3 minute telephone call.
Takes months for a suppressor... that is worthless without the firearm to put it on.
 
A good friend of mine just submitted with a trust on Friday around 3:30pm and was approved on Monday around 10:30am.
 
Just an update. I emailed silencer shop about adding people to the trust if finger prints etc were required. This was their reply.

They are not required to complete prints, they are added with the forms that come with the trust after the item is approved.

The guy at a lgs that has a kiosk told me you just need to fill out the forms and have them notarized.
 
😳
Well… was I misled, or is that a different or newly added rule and regulation of the NFA Gun Trust!
My NFA Trust was done by a lawyer way back when nobody needed fingerprinting.
I added my children when they turned 18… no fingerprinting needed, only notarized affidavit adding them to the NFA Trust.

NOW… Many years later, when I asked to buy more suppressors on my Trust, I was told that after 2019 or so that everyone on the trust had to be backgrounded and fingerprinted before applying for the next stamp!
😡😡😡

That is true if they are in the trust when applying for another item for the trust they need fingerprinted and they will be checked. The other thing you can do is remove them from the trust, buy your item with just the original trust members and then add them back on the trust when the item is approved and in the trust.

This is true. When they changed the law the trust was looked at as a loop hole because other trust members did not have to submit prints etc. also at that time an individual had to have leo approval and a trust not. So they removed the leo approval from both but added the finger print back ground checks for trusts. So I was surprised when I was told with the single shot trust you could add people after the fact with no back ground check or prints. But the lgs and silencer shop told me the same thing.

The single shot trust is only good for one nfa item. If you buy another then it is a single trust also. This may be the loophole. I do know they offer an unlimited trust for $125. The single is $25. Not sure how the unlimited works with back ground checks.

Cajun,
The unlimited trust price is as many single-shot trusts you want….. No limit, no more purchases…..I am putting together number 5 for me next as soon as its finished with a serial number, I am at the break even point…..everyone after that will be no cost so to speak on my end. I like the single shot trust as I can transfer them individually to different kids or family members when I die. I can have different family members on each trust depending on what weapons they have to use them on.

That makes sense. This is the route I will go. Unless of course they can get suppressors out of the nfa.
