Since August 2026, a silencer ordered through our Silencer Shop page ships to the store and transfers like a regular rifle. Fill out the 4473, pass the background check, take it home the same day.
What this is
Overview
We don't keep a wall of silencers, and it doesn't matter. You order yours through our Silencer Shop page, with Fun Guns set as your dealer, and it ships here. We call you when it lands, you do the 4473 and the background check at the counter, and you walk out with it. We charge nothing for that transfer. If they don't have the one you want, we special order it from our other distributors instead. That way still needs a Form 4, but approvals are coming back fast right now, so it's a real option and not a consolation prize.
How it works here
Step by step
1
Open Silencer Shop through our link
This is the step people skip. Use our link and the top of their site will read "Your Dealer: Fun Guns." If it says Unknown Dealer, or another shop, we can't handle the sale. Check that line before you order anything.
An email address and a password. That's all of it. No fingerprints, no ID photos, no ATF eForms account.
3
Pick your silencer and order it to us
Their whole catalog, priced. Order it with us set as your dealer and it ships here.
4
It ships to us and we call you
Right now that's running about a week to 10 days, and it moves around. We call the number on the order, so put a good one in.
5
Paperwork at the counter
Bring a current, government-issued photo ID that shows your current address: driver license, License to Carry, or state ID. You fill out the 4473 and we run the background check, same as a rifle.
6
Take it home
Most folks finish the same day. If a check gets delayed it can take up to 3 business days to clear before we can release it.

NFA item transferred in from elsewhere$100
A silencer or other NFA item sent to us from a manufacturer or another retailer. That covers the whole thing, prints included. Nothing else on top.
The Form 4 route is how we reach everything Silencer Shop doesn't have, through our other distributors, and approvals are moving quickly right now. It's also the route for a silencer you bought somewhere else, and for short-barreled rifles and shotguns. It needs an ATF eForms account and fingerprints, and we do all of that at the counter on our kiosk. The SBR and SBS side is expected to change and we're waiting on guidance, so call and ask where it stands before you assume either way.
Common questions
FAQ
Yes, and it's usually the quicker way. The few cans in our case were brought in before the change, so those still need a Form 4. Order it to the store through our Silencer Shop page instead and you're picking from their entire catalog with no Form 4 at all.
