Had quite a few people ask me about how to get a supressor so I will go over how I personally got my first 2.
There's 3 ways to purchase a suppressor, you can buy it thru yourself, thru a corporation that you setup for it, or thru a living trust.
If you purchase it thru yourself then you need to get a form signed by the local head of law enforcement, need fingerprint cards, picture taken.
If you purchase it thru a corp then none of that is needed but you may need to do paperwork yearly to keep the corp active.
If you purchase it thru a living trust none of that is needed and it's a one time thing of setting up the living trust.
I setup a living trust using quicken willmaker, very easy and walks you thru it step by step. You can also have a lawyer do it, it's really a personal preference type of thing. I'm cheap so I did it myself to save money.
Next step is to decide what supressor you are wanting. That is really a thread in and of itself. If it's in stock at your local dealer then you go down with your living trust or corp paperwork or fingerprint card and photo. Fill out the form 4 to transfer the suppressor to you, write out a check to the BATFE for $200, pay your dealer for the suppressor, then send everything off.
Ideally about 3 months later the atf will send it back to your dealer approved and they will call you and you get to come down and pick up your suppressor.
If the supressor is'nt in stock then your dealer can most likely order it in for you, there's a transfer involved there but it's usually much quicker, 2-4 weeks on average.
If you have any other questions feel free to PM me.
