How The ATF SLASHED Suppressor Approval Time By 5000%! Get One SAME DAY!!

Published on July 8, 2024
Duration: 10:34

The ATF has significantly reduced suppressor approval times, with some cases now being approved on the same day. This acceleration is attributed to three key factors: increased political pressure on the ATF due to its politically appointed director, Steve Dettelbach; the activation of a new computer system developed in 2017 that handles 80-90% of application processing; and the abandonment of the 'first-in, first-out' system for application processing, which previously caused delays for all subsequent applicants when one application was delayed. These changes have drastically cut wait times from over a year to mere hours or weeks.

Quick Summary

The ATF has dramatically reduced suppressor approval times, with some applications now being approved on the same day. This acceleration is due to a new computer system handling 80-90% of the review, increased political pressure on the ATF, and the discontinuation of the 'first-in, first-out' processing method that caused significant delays.

Frequently Asked Questions

How has the ATF drastically reduced suppressor approval times?

The ATF has significantly cut suppressor approval times by implementing a new computer system that automates 80-90% of the application review process. This, combined with increased political pressure and the abandonment of the 'first-in, first-out' bottleneck system, has led to approvals in hours or weeks instead of months or years.

What is the new computer system used by the ATF for suppressor applications?

A new computer system, developed in 2017 but recently activated, is now processing the majority of suppressor applications. It handles 80-90% of the initial review and investigation, recommending approval or denial to human examiners, thereby speeding up the overall process.

Why was the 'first-in, first-out' system problematic for suppressor approvals?

The 'first-in, first-out' system meant that if one suppressor application was delayed (e.g., due to a background check issue), all subsequent applications in the queue had to wait. This created massive backlogs and extended wait times for everyone, a problem now resolved.

Can I get a suppressor on the same day I apply now?

Yes, in many cases, suppressor approval times have been reduced to the same day or just a few weeks. This is a result of the ATF's new automated processing system, political pressure, and changes to how delayed applications are handled.
