Forget dealing with Silencer Central. Unless you want to add an additional 3-6 weeks to your wait..... How or with whom did you file yours?
There are 2 rules to success:
1. Never tell everything that you know.

Bought several from Silencer Central, but never again.... Bought several thru local shops, and several thru dealers with silencer shop kiosks. The last 2 (the quick ones) were from the local silencer shop dealer thru e-file (individual).

Really [bleep] up how they're not catching up old orders 1st.
I get short delays every time I purchase a gun, used to be 10-15 minutes. Last two over an hour. Even have a worthless UPIN.
Government security clearance and would loose my job if I couldn't pass a NICS check. But the stupid f'ing Government software doesn't know up from down.
Long story short, have three in jail and it's pissing me off when I hear some of these instant approvals.

I've had a secret or higher clearance for most of my adult life. What I've gathered from others is those of us with government clearances are scrutinized more than those without and usually take longer to approve. I know, doesn't make sense, but it's the government.

I've been spamming the NICS FBI email for several weeks now. Probably put me on the backburner.

Did you file yourself or through a service like Silencer Central? Silencer Shop as Trust.
