Sale of suppressor

[cris&joe]

I am thinking of saleing my shotgun suppressor. Any suggestions on where's the best place? Facebook groups? Also have 2 AR 15 lowers NIB I need to post. All for unexpected dental procedure. Just not sure of where to post these items anymore with all the controversy

Meplat Group sells firearms on consignment. Not sure if they will sell suppressors on consignment but you can ask. They're open by appointment only in person. They've done half a dozen transfers for me.

Be forewarned. You're only going to get a fraction of what you paid for it. The second hand market for suppressors is just about non-existent.

I second Kenny at Meplat; great guy who won’t do you wrong. That said, used cans are rarely worth selling on the used market. Hope you the best with this. Also hope you get your teeth taken care of. Dental pain is nothing nice.

I third Kenny, bout to go pay him a visit myself

But agreed second hand market is trash right now, economy is down… for a “used can” you will almost have to give it way… maybe try to find something else easier to liquidate..:

Just curious? Lol u from town of livingston? So am I lol

So what would be the lawful procedure to buy a used can from an individual?
I assume the buyer would need the $200 tax stamp before buying?

 

[cris&joe]

Once buyer buys it I turn it over to an ffl dealer of buyers choice. Then you do all paper work and 200 tax thru them.

I may be wrong about this, but if I am, I am sure someone will correct me. I THINK that if both parties are in the same state, then the buyer can submit Form 4 plus $200 for a direct transfer from seller to buyer, and not have to Form 3 it to an FFL first.

I would appreciate if someone would confirm or correct this if needed.

And pay the dealer usually $100 fee for transfer and holding till approval… depending on the ffl how much they charge

That is true… but I believe the orginal owner has to possess the can untill the new owner is approved.. which could take 24 hours to 12+ months

We don’t take cans in on consignment. As others have said the market for second hand cans is almost non-existent.

However, if you find a buyer who is a Louisiana resident, we can draft and mail the transfer documents for $100 (pics/prints/trust extra). The buyer would also have to pay for a tax stamp.

The seller would need to hold the item until the paperwork is complete. The approved stamp would be sent by the ATF to the seller at their last provided address. We can technically hold an NFA item on an inspection and repair letter but usually only do that for machine guns that we broker as it is too much hassle for too little money.

This is why I always advise people to buy good quality stuff from the get go. Sorry about your situation but I would find some other stuff to liquidate that is easier to sell.
