So in my mind, perhaps as they’re not sending the device to a local Class 3 SOT in the interim, and once they have ATF approval, they’re somehow processing the transaction to deliver the device directly to him, they have some unique and unheard of process that requires this.

I say this because previously in dealings with Silencer Shop, they had some unique and non-standard methods for processing paperwork I had never seen previously, that were the result of their own unique and specific negotiations with the ATF. Now, most of these have since become commonplace and standard with digital signatures, e-filing and the like, but at the time, years ago, they were specifically approved for their use because a slew of lawyers negotiated them with the ATF on their behalf.

Just my best guess, I could be off base, but I know Silencer Central has a home delivery deal, and I’m guessing that plays a part in this somehow.


Notification came in last night ,SC has shipped my silencer to a FFL (a SC distributor/dealer I assume) in southeast Mich which will then send to me, so SC is not directly sending it to my door, Don't think I will go this route again just to many cluster *****, and delays to want to go that way again. Fingers crossed it will be here Monday am.
