Powered By Silencer Shop

At Silencer Shop, we've worked hard to simplify the buying & registration process - and now we're taking that to the next level with our Powered By Silencer Shop program!

Silencer Shop submits more Form 4's to the ATF than anybody else in the country; and, as a result, we've learned what works - as well as what doesn't.  We're able to keep our Form 4 error rate to an absolute minimum by running an automated validation on the registration information, and then following that up with a manual review by some of the most experienced NFA experts in the country.  

And that's before your paperwork even gets printed!

We're so confident that you'll have a positive experience, that we guarantee every PBSS order!

With our new Powered By Silencer Shop (PBSS) program, we've built a dedicated national network of dealers; so, if you live in an area where silencers are legal, you'll probably have a PBSS dealer within just a few miles of your home.

When you purchase a suppressor from SilencerShop.com, you can rest assured:

  1. You're getting the best price from our competitive marketplace.
  2. You don't have to worry about the hassle of setting up a transfer with a local dealer - and there are NO TRANSFER FEES.
If you choose a dealer with the PBSS logo by their name:
  1. Our NFA experts will handle the entire NFA submission for you - so you can rest easy knowing your Form 4 paperwork is being submitted quickly and correctly.
  2. We'll keep you updated as the transfer status changes; providing information like the serial number of each suppressor, submission dates, shipping dates, and the date the ATF cashes your tax stamp check.
  3. You'll get your approval quickly, no matter where you live - and you can pick up the suppressor at the local dealer you choose.  (Be sure to look at our current approval times to see what's coming back approved.)
  4. We back up every PBSS transfer with a satisfaction guarantee - so you can be assured that your purchase is also "Guaranteed By Silencer Shop"!

In short, by combining our NFA expertise with a network of dealers around the country, you'll know your next PBSS order from SilencerShop.com will be processed quickly & correctly!

How does the Powered By Silencer Shop program work?

We couldn't have made it easier... trust us, we tried.  At the product page - before you add the silencer to your cart - you'll be prompted to select a dealer in your state.  Here is how it works.

How does Silencer Shop handle my Form 4?

Before getting into this, remember that If you do NOT choose a PBSS dealer, then your selected local dealer will handle the Form 4 submission for you.

If you do choose a PBSS dealer, then read on to see how Silencer Shop will handle your Form 4 submission process!

First, you need to decide how you want to register the suppressor.  You can register as a trustcorporation, or individual.  If you have any questions about the method that you should use, please dont hesitate to give us a call!

Once you know how you want to register, you can:

  1. Purchase the suppressor directly from our website, or by giving us a call @ 512-931-4556.  You'll be able to pick a local dealer when making the purchase - and remember that we're always here to answer any questions you may have when you're picking out your new toy!
  2. Be sure to purchase an NFA tax stamp for each suppressor on your order.  Most people just add this into the initial order; but, it can be purchased a bit later if you prefer – and a credit or debit card works just fine. (Remember that we can’t start your Form 4 transfer until the tax stamp has been purchased.)
  3. We'll email instructions explaining how you can upload, email, or fax any additional documentation (such as a copy of your NFA Trust) that may be needed.  (If you're registering as an individual, we'll contact you by phone to ensure everything is setup correctly.)

That’s all there is to it!  We’ll take care of getting everything reviewed and submitted right away.

When your Form 4 transfer has been approved by the NFA Branch, you will be notified by us or your dealer (depending on how the application was submitted); and, you can simply pick up the suppressor from your local dealer.

Once you've gone through the NFA process using a PBSS dealer, you'll see why our customers say 'The hardest part is the wait':
