Does anyone have a number as to how many Forms are submitted on a daily or weekly basis? I can't imagine that Silencer shop is doing that many e-forms a day to where its having a huge impact.

about 650 a week. That includes all types....et. 1,2,3,4,5 etc. The week of October 8th 2013 it jumped to almost 900 but has since fallen back to about 650 per week.


Going off the control numbers anyway.

Thats doesn't seem like a lot. I wonder how many they can do in a day. What do they do exactly? Anyone know?

Direct quote from Silencer Shop

We wanted to weigh in here and, hopefully, clear up a few misconceptions about our Silencer Shop Direct program. 1.)Allowing Silencer Shop access to your eForms account only allows us to see the transfers that Silencer Shop has initiated to and on behalf of your FFL/SOT. We do not have access to a record of all your sales. It does not allow us to acquire or dispose anything in your bound book or anything else that might cost your FFL any criminal liability.
2.)We pride ourselves on customer service. The by-product of that is that we have a lot of customers. We make no apologies for that. With customers comes paperwork and that paperwork must be filed, either by paper or the new eForms system. Since the eforms system seems to be getting approvals much faster than the paper applications, we’d rather file them electronically. In order NOT to overload the system we are uploading batch forms at 4am. If we are uploading the forms in the middle of the night, how then can we be blamed for tying up the system all day? ‘Day’ being the key word here.
3.)It’s odd that Congress, in 1934, passed the NFA, which requires a $200.00 tax in order to be in legal possession of a muffler, the ATF takes, on average, 9-10 months to process this tax payment as well as requiring private trust information, CLEO signatures, fingerprints and duplicate paperwork but somehow, Silencer Shop is the one ‘gumming up the works’ by trying to get said paperwork done in some semblance of a timely and efficient process. We didn’t invent the ATF or the National Firearms Act. We’re just trying to help our customers legally own something that actually makes guns safer.
It’s disheartening to see so many ‘pro 2nd amendment’ FFL holders actively rooting for the ATF to ‘smack down’ another FFL. It’s an odd phenomenon to be sure and hopefully not indicative of some new trend in the industry.
