That would be news to us. There is usually a week to two before you can certify. Before the fast approval times, you would have to wait 9-18 months after certification to get approval. Now, we are seeing some people getting 1-3 day approvals after they certify. To our knowledge, the certification wait times are about the same, 1-2 weeks, but the approval wait times are substantially faster.

@@billylake5999 You will get an email from SilencerShop saying that your application/can is ready to be certified. You'll then need to contact/visit your FFL to complete the certification steps. After that is complete, the ATF will then start its approval process. This approval process is what usually takes 9-18 months but is now taking days for some people.

I always thought this process was way more complicated. I went to my local FFL two weeks ago and they told me a lot of approvals were coming back in 2-4 days for individuals so I took the plunge. Took maybe twenty five minutes to set up my silencer shop account and eforms account there in the store. certified in two days and approved in another two days. Started the process on a Tuesday at 5pm and walked out of the shop with my suppressor and tax stamp at 5pm on Friday. Why the heck hasn't it always been like this?

Right! It's mind-blowing to think this process would take up to 18 months! Some times even longer.

@@Rainierarms makes no sense. I always thought it was a lengthy process because they were doing an in depth background check. Turns out it's just a freaking NICS check and some personal info for the ATF to keep in hand. So dumb.

Does the approval process require selection of a specific suppressor?

Yes, because whatever suppressor you choose, that serial number for that specific suppressor will be assigned to you.

Yes, as stated by @mrfaceforest , The suppressor has to be assigned to you. You can create your account with ATF and SilencerShop before hand, but the actual approval process cannot start until there is a serial number to be assigned to you.
