90 days to approve, but 200 days to get your info into the system.

Well the verdict is out on the time for approval, ATF and Silencer Shop promotes 90 days but yet to see it. I have not found anyone on Reddit, on NFA tracker, on ARF.com that has reported eFiling Form 4 for a Silencer and having their approval back yet. The earliest submittals maybe is end of Dec?
So by end of March we will see if any has been approved. FINALLY got to certify mine, February the 18th, so I am hoping end of May. Sounds like some on here had gotten theirs certified in January so guess will keep an ear out......................... for the celebratory announcements.

My feedback
After an initial experimental run of approvals, I expect ALL the eFiles to be put behind the paper backlog that needs to be cleared first.
IMHO, Claiming 90 days is pure marketing on Silencer Shop's part.
Yhea, 90 days after the paper backlog is finished (maybe).
For example, next week is my one year anniversary of putting in for a suppressor.
So I'd expect it to be 6 - 9 months or more before the first "production" eFiles come back.

YOU are the first responder. Police, fire and medical are SECOND responders.
When seconds count, the police are mere minutes away...
Gun registration is gun confiscation in slow motion.

You may be right, like I said will see if some start showing up end of March. Even ATF advertised 90 days and going to 30 days end of 2022.
I did catch someone on Reddit who got their Efile form 4 back on 2/4/2022, but he was active duty and they apparently have an option for that and was approved.
I have seen no one else yet.
