The SilencerShop and Reconarms probably didn't even took the holiday break, anticipating the flood of buyers coming their way. Their shop was closed from the outside, but inside, they were probably working. They have a plan. It may not be perfect given a lot of variables and unforeseen obstacles. On Jan 2, 2026, I swung by Reconarms to certify my atf submission. And 4 days later, I got my ATF approval in my email inbox on Jan 6. I swung by Reconarms and got my can out of jail. I definitely underestimated SilencerShop and ReconArms. I was expecting to get another can from a different online dealer, that ships their product directly to your door, first. I even bought their product a day earlier and got my atf certified before Christmas, and yet, Silencershop beat them and delivered faster. By the way, there maybe a few factors that could have expedited my purchase from SilencerShop. I'm just speculating.. but here you go.. I'm not a first time buyer. I've already purchased a can from SilecerShop 11 years ago. Also, by using the digital fingerprint way, i made sure that my prints are clear and satisfactory in my perspective. I used a glass cloth to wipe clean the screen whenever I wanted to redo my prints. And then when I'm completely satisfied, that's when would finally submit it. Another thing is, this time around, I bought and used what Silencershop offers - single shot trust. I have my own gun trust but I wanted to try theirs, thinking that it would streamline the process. Another huge factor is my local FFL shop was very kind, patient and persistent enough to try and try and submit my certified application to the ATF website. It only took 2 tries for mine to get through ATF's system... I know, luck and timing were definitely also factors. See, there were things that played their roles that made this process expeditiously. This will not be case for other consumers. But I'm one of the proofs that can testify how great SilencerShop, in collaboration with our Las Vegas local FFL, ReconArms, are. read more
