Question

Suppressor wait times in 2026 - what's everyone actually seeing on the eForm?

Rangium Community TeamStarter contentFeb 13, 2026

Submitted my Form 4 for a 30-cal can back in March and I'm trying to set realistic expectations. I keep hearing wildly different numbers, some people say a few days now, others still waiting months. For those who've filed recently through a dealer with eForms, what's your actual approval timeline been? Also if there's anything that commonly trips up an application I'd love to avoid it.

Buy the can you actually want, not the one you think will clear faster. The wait is unpredictable enough that it shouldn't drive the choice. Get a good muzzle device and direct-thread or mount setup figured out while you wait.
Trust filings sometimes take a bit longer because of the extra docs. If you did individual you're usually in the faster lane.
Pro tip: use the wait time to confirm your host's threads and order the right mount. Nothing worse than approval day and you can't even attach it.
Mine cleared in under a week on eForm 4 as an individual. The fast approvals are real but seem to come in waves, so don't panic if yours sits.
Make sure your photo and fingerprint cards (or the digital prints) are clean. Bad prints are the most common cause of a kickback I've seen.
