    Default Just got my BATFE approval

    I won a S&W M&P22 host and a Silencerco 22 can at a gun bash in May. Submitted the paperwork on 5/27 through the dealer for the tax stamp. I just got a note on Monday from the dealer that the application was approved and I am picking up the can this weekend. This is my second .22 can, the first was done through a trust, this one was just done as an individual since the law changed on the CLEO notification instead of needing a sign off, and since trustees now need fingerprint cards it's pretty much a wash.

    Pics once I get the new can and get it mounted. Have a couple of .22 pistol hosts and grabbed a Ruger American bolt rifle in .22 Mag with a threaded barrel. Also have a Colt AR-15/22 I can use. Waiting for the HPA to pass, and I will add the .30 cal can I really want for my .300Blk stuff (Remington 700 Tactical and a Tavor X95).

    So from May 27th to December 11 waiting for the approval. 197 days.

    i wouldn't wait on the hearing protection act to go anywhere.
    300aac is a great round to suppress.
    it's only metal, we can out think it....

    Yeah, you guys are probably right, HPA went up in smoke with the Vegas shootings.

    Plus if hpa goes through you’re going to watch inventory evaporate. Think ar parts after sandy hook. They’re going to be out of stock incredibly fast and you’ll be paying more and waiting for restocks.

    I had someone pre-sell me an 80% suppressor right after Trump was elected to be shippas soon as HPA passes. My optomism is a bit lower. Debating taking them up on the offer to finish it and ship it to my dealer. Hard to justify a stamp and transfer fee on an $85 deal. Also hard to just throw it away. But for about $250 more, and another year waiting, I can have a new 22 can.
