What is the wait time going to be for suppressor approval starting 1/1/2026?

Waiting on atf approval for trust- submitted February 21. Estimated atf trust wait time is 22 days so… any day now.
I submitted my form 4 on a trust on 2/18. Just got approved today, 3/19. Last year my longest wait on a trust was 7 days. Way better than my first which was a year. But they are moving them through.
 
My email approval arrived today.

approved today.
So a little longer than estimated 39 days in a trust.

I picked mine up from ups tonight. Two missed attempts for signature at the house because, well I am employed. A little longer than expected but all good.
how quiet is a 300 black out?
 
I was at 38 days with a trust. Before 26 I had a few approvals that were under a week. Still ok with 38 days. My first was just under a year.
 
Both my form 1 i put in for my .22LR got approved in roughly 45 days or so. I put them in 3 days apart and then got approved on both the same day. Both manufactured in a couple days since it's a pretty easy build and had the press tools already done., plus a 3D printer just does its thing as i slept. One done from aluminum bar stock, and used brass freeze plugs for baffles. I made press tools for pressing the freeze plugs into cone shape and for drilling the centers concentric. Not going to show everything but here's the cone shaped freeze plugs and tools. Them apple orchard raiding coons don't stand a chance this fall. Haven't done any side by side comparison but the aluminum will definitely be more robust in case i hit the end of the rifle on something in the field1000007205.jpg
