Frequently Asked Questions

What are the current Form 4 wait times for suppressors?

Form 4 wait times for suppressors are currently at an all-time low, especially when using the e-forms system. Many applications are being processed and approved in a matter of hours, a significant improvement over historical wait times that could extend for many months.

How has technology impacted NFA application processing?

The integration of technology, particularly the e-forms system for NFA applications, has dramatically sped up processing times. This allows for faster data entry, background checks, and overall workflow, leading to approvals that were previously unimaginable.

Are NFA trusts still recommended for suppressor purchases?

While NFA trusts have historically offered benefits, recent trends suggest that individual applications may now have shorter processing times. The speaker advises filing as an individual unless there's a specific, definitive reason to use a trust.

What is the estimated number of gun owners in the US?

Based on survey data where 40% of Americans are willing to state they own firearms, it's estimated there are approximately 132 million gun owners in the United States. This number is considered an undercount due to privacy concerns among owners.
