Silencer Central now lets customers buy a suppressor on its website and collect it from a licensed dealer they choose. The ATF said October 9 it will not enforce NFA approval or registration for suppressors, so the sale uses Form 4473 plus a dealer background check with no Form 4, wait, or federal registration.

Todd Blanche as attorney general declined to appeal an August 5 Texas federal ruling that those NFA requirements went beyond Congress after the tax ended. The tax falls to zero January 1, 2026 under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, and ATF applied its view nationwide despite the order covering only plaintiffs. Pickup works in 27 states; others with state registration can use door delivery and Form 4.
