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

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?

My ZG 6.5 arrived at my dealer earlier this month and I am currently about 2 weeks in on ATF. Looks like forn 4 trusts are averaging 25 days, which would be fine by me. Curious if it makes a difference being my first supressor versus someone who has had previous approvals?

I don't think having a previous approval provides any benefit. My ZG 7 form 4 was submitted on 4/22 so I'm hoping for an approval any day now, but the can I bought a couple years ago doesn't seem to be giving me any leg up.

Just a lil' PSA, if you're sitting on a Form 4 submission longer than expected, might be worth reaching out to your FFL to have them check on the status. I received the email that my Form 4 trust was submitted 42 days ago and called my FFL today to check on it, and they said it's showing Approved even though neither they or I had received email notification. I saw something on the slide about similar experiences which is why I called, so it's definitely not a one-off. Edit to add: my tax stamp shows it was approved May 12. Glad I decided to call!

Ended up getting my approval the day after your post. 16 days. Have yet to shoot it yet but am amazed how light it is.

Yes individual. I purchased 2 suppressors from an individual out of state. He filed for them both at the same time and they were both approved in less than a week. They got to my dealer the other day and I just filed my form 4's from them to me yesterday.

I was in a shop today filing my Form 4 and the owner stated he had one processed and approved in 4 hours yesterday. Crazy fast!

Did you receive an email notifying you?
