Well, I imagine the one time the long wait pays off for approval works in their favor.. A very small amount of those are even in the hands of end users since the wait for Form 4's is still about 7 to 9 months.

I wonder if the repairs can even start until the background check and transfer is completed to the end user. I'd think changing possession mid way through the extremely long and unnecessary background check would throw a wrench in the mix. How much would that suck, you wait 9 months to get approved just to have to send it back.

At least they are stepping up to the plate and addressing the issue pro-actively. Not many companies do the right thing these days. I commend them.

You'd think that SilencerCo would have access to who all has purchased these cans. Only goes back to a 4 month period. Last one was sold 5 weeks ago. How many have been shipped to dealers? Or sold through large dealers (Capitol Armory etc)? I know none of mine are in this.

I know there's one company that is updating currently owned cans that the ATF is allowing without a transfer since it is still using the same body, therefore the same serial#. They will probably just redo the can with the same outer sleeve. Only way I can see that working out, and it can still happen prior to approval by the F troop.

Good news for those affected!
