Dealer Registration

At Silencer Shop, we highly value every phase of the NFA process: from manufacturers to dealers and customers. Each group plays an integral role in our success, and we try to show our appreciation by working hard to provide the easiest silencer buying experience possible.

We realize the suppressor industry is saturated with options when dealers research how to best align their merchandise with retailers/distributors. To that point, we would like to explain exactly how we address your business needs and help expand its brand. In the following, we will highlight the benefits of partnering with Silencer Shop as well as our unique loyalty program to encourage and incentivize your growth.

NFA Is Our Business

An extension of the connections stated above, we pride ourselves on being NFA experts. The Silencer Shop staff offers a wealth of knowledge regarding NFA-related topics. We fully understand the buying process and are continually improving our own procedures to get you and your customers the desired products as quickly as possible.

Although the ATF works at their own pace, we specifically employ a detailed process that streamlines the pre- and post-ATF stages. This ensures a more efficient processing time and guarantees organized handling of the submitted documentation.

With the abundance of steps and paperwork involved throughout the buying process, we face the challenge head-on to lighten your workload and make it stress-free for your clientele. Nobody takes silencer ownership as seriously as we do… We will gladly prove it to you and your customers.

Let Us Manage the Process

The amended ATF regulations in July 2016 brought change to the silencer ownership process. And, contrary to popular belief, a SID Kiosk is NOT needed on your part... Every dealer is welcome to utilize our resources as necessary. With the ATF 41F alteration, Silencer Shop immediately employed cutting-edge technology (i.e., SID Kiosk and Mobile App) to help streamline the modified steps.

Due to these advances, we offer the lowest error rate in the industry when submitting ATF paperwork on behalf of your customers, which results in repeat business.

Moreover, we proudly provide the highest number of submissions (Forms 1 and 4) to the ATF, making our process the most efficient and effective available. Because we handle all things ATF-related, you won't need a staff dedicated to the process. Our ATF staff does everything required for you (and your customers), including:

  • Collect all customer information: fingerprints, photo, trust documents
  • Review all customer paperwork: extensive in-house inspection of every page
  • Provide CLEO notification: nationwide database automatically matches customer with nearest CLEO
  • Contact each customer: personally notify customer if any of their information is missing
  • Submit all customer paperwork: uniform, complete packet sent that enables customer tracking

Silencer Shop will manage any/all ATF changes encountered. We truly value our partner relationships and strive to bring more traffic to your business.
