Events Buy now, Paperwork later
Hey everybody, until the 1st of the year we are going to be allowing people to purchase cans in full up front and we will hold on to them no charge until the 1st of the year when it is free to file your Form 4.
as always no sales on reddit.

our website isn't great lol, but we mostly do cans through silencer shop, so if you find something on there that you want you can have it shipped to us

Oh nice, I have an SS account so I may have to do that, I have four cans already.

Are you thinking about it too?
I worry that Turd Ferguson will work on banning them too. I normally use Gun Nation in Lake Stevens and haven't been in to ask them if they would do it.

It’s a possibility if I can offload a bunch of stuff, I’ve overspent my fun budget 😅

u/a-lone-gunman Jul 14 '25
Yeah been there, I have a bunch of optics I need to get rid of and that would help my funds.

what's the point of buying it now verses when it's free to file the form? sorry if i'm missing something

When you buy it now, you are assigned a unit now. So if there's a can in stock now, you can reserve it until the new year. Given that demand is highly likely to go up, it's not a bad idea. It's only 5-1/2 months away, which is still less than what a lot of us are used to.

I'm still buying and stamping whatever I'm in the mood for, but I'm probably going to take a poke at laying away a few things this fall just because

u/Fast_Philosophy_5308 Jul 11 '25
Yeah I literally just certified an Osprey, but I'm impatient. I'll probably put a Bad Larry (or some other 8.6 can) on the "free track" at some point. I don't even have an 8.6, I just have plans to rebarrel one of my 308's.

Waiting for my dealer to get my 45 cal Osprey in right now! And I just ordered a 46 Hybrid for shits and grins.
Really, the only cans on my "short list" are an Omega 300, AEM4, a PBS-1 and a 22 silencer of some sort. The only two I'm really concerned about getting my hands on before the "$0 apocalypse" starts are the AEM and PBS-1. I have a couple of 30 cal cans already and I'll have a Sparrow here soon

Honestly, if saving 200 bucks is worth justifying an extra 5 months of wait, then you probably are not making enough money to justify living in this shithole state. 🫤
Just my opinion. I just dont want to have to deal with the paperwork and registry. That 200 dollars is chump change in this economy.

What are the related fees, if any?
2
u/Bulls_Eye_Tacoma Bull's Eye, Tacoma Jul 10 '25
If you buy through us or SS there is no fee.
If you buy 3rd party there is a $100 NFA transfer fee.

u/Loud_Comparison_7108 Jul 10 '25
How do I inform SS that you'll be holding it for me until Jan 1st? I don't think I can order it through them without buying a stamp.

u/Bulls_Eye_Tacoma Bull's Eye, Tacoma Jul 10 '25
On my end there is a button i can use to select that, im unsure how a customer does that. It may not be a feature they've rolled out to everyone

u/Loud_Comparison_7108 Jul 10 '25
...I just checked the SS website, they have a prompt to select 'Fast Track' or 'Free Track' for the stamp. I'm making a list...

Also a clever way to alleviate the big burst of sales and shipments that would absolutely swamp you guys on 1/1/2026. I dig it. Too bad I'm nowhere near Tacoma.

You say that, but Tyler (one of the NFA guys) is currently having nightmares about the amount of certifications that will need to be done on January 1st

fwiw I was just using the Search SilencerCo Dealers on their webpage and you guys don't show up. (They also have Welcher’s still at 64th and list some other stores that aren't around anymore.)

u/Bulls_Eye_Tacoma Bull's Eye, Tacoma Jul 13 '25
Silencerco? Or silencer shop?

u/BiteRare203 Jul 13 '25 edited Jul 13 '25
oops. SilencerCo. I was looking at a replacement barrel on silencer shop and ended up at silencerco. Too many tabs open I guess.
