Silencer Process
Want to buy a silencer? Let us do the hard work for you. TAP Custom Tactical, a POWERED BY SILENCER SHOP dealer, offers a simplified step-by-step process to make your silencer acquisition hassle-free. Here's how it works:
1
Select your desired silencer
To begin the process, please get in touch with me directly or fill out the contact form below. This allows us to discuss your preferences and guide you in selecting the perfect silencer for your needs. Alternatively, you can visit www.silencershop.com to explore the available options and then contact me with your selection. If you want to demo a few, contact me and we can meet at the range in Wiggins. Range fees and ammo charged separately.
2
Get in touch for pricing
Reach out to us to inquire about final silencer pricing. As a dealer, we often have access to discounts beyond the listed website prices, ensuring you get the best value.
3
Place your order through us
DO NOT place the order on the website. Instead, contact us via email or phone with the specific silencer you want. This allows us to offer discounts and ensures we can serve as the selling dealer. . Otherwise, I can’t offer discounts and won’t be the selling dealer so nothing listed below will be possible.
4
Invoice and payment
Upon selecting your silencer, we will send you an invoice that includes the (often discounted) silencer price and the $205 tax stamp required by the ATF. Pay the invoice using cash, check, or card, and we will proceed with the order placement through Silencer Shop.
5
Ownership confirmation
Upon receiving payment, I then place the order with Silencer Shop and you will instantly see an email with your order number, serial number, and steps. The email will include a“kiosk code”which can be used to pull up your order in the app. You now own a specific serial numbered unit! We just have to get through the paperwork and approval so you can take it home. However, it is held for you at this point!
6
Fingerprinting and documentation
Visit our location in Hudson, where we can assist you with completing the fingerprinting card on-site. We will then mail your prints to Silencer Shop for uploading into the ATF portal. Additionally, download the Silencer Shop app and capture a selfie for your application, which will be uploaded to the portal as well.
7
Trust selection and payment
Choose the trust option that suits your needs, using the information provided at https://www.silencershop.com/blog/post/a-buyer-s-guide-individual-vs-trust. Pay Silencer Shop directly for the selected trust, and if you opt for an NFA Gun Trust, we have a notary available on-site to assist you. Feel free to contact Silencer Shop for further guidance on trust options.

Form 4 processing
Silencer Shop will utilize the information, picture, fingerprints, and trust details you provided to prefill your Form 4. You will then receive the final document for review, signature, and submission.
9
Waiting period
After submitting your Form 4, sit back and wait for the ATF's review. The typical processing time ranges from 7 to 10 months.
10
Conjugal visit and range experience
BUT WAIT! I will be in physical possession of your can while it is in“ATF Jail.”Do you want to test it out, shoot on it, play with it, take selfies with it? Contact me to arrange a“conjugal visit”with it at the range.oRange fees and ammo charged separately.oIf you choose to“conjugal”the silencer while you wait, you may not return it to Silencer Shop if your Form 4 is not approved for any reason, since it is now used.
