I want to ask if anyone has built a Form 1 suppressor lately and what was required by the ATF. I have been out of the loop (country, actually) for several years and am thinking of building a suppressor after I return in 2025. I was also reorganizing my gun safes and found some tooling and parts I bought around 2016 to make rifle suppressors, but never started the project since I went overseas for my work. I have a set of tools to make baffles from freeze plugs, using a hydraulic press, and plans and parts to make a monolithic core. I guess I was hedging my bets back then and decided to try both routes. How much does the ATF want from us to approve a Form 1 now? Is it significantly more difficult to get approval for a Form 1 suppressor now?
thanks in advance.
