🚨 CODE BLUE FI****MS — NFA / FORM 4 UPDATE 🚨
We’ve received several questions concerning the recent federal court ruling involving suppressors and reports that suppressors can now be purchased without an ATF Form 4.
Yes, the ruling is real.
On August 13, 2026, the court’s injunction in Silencer Shop Foundation v. ATF went into effect, and the first reported suppressor transfers covered by that ruling were completed without a Form 4 or NFA registration.
However, there is an important distinction that is getting lost on social media:
This is NOT currently a nationwide ruling allowing every FFL/SOT to transfer every suppressor without a Form 4.
The court’s injunction applies to the plaintiffs and certain covered members and customers, including qualifying Silencer Shop customers. There are still important questions concerning how the ruling applies to independent dealers and customers outside those protected groups.
So what does this mean for Code Blue Fi****ms customers?
For now, Code Blue Fi****ms will continue processing our suppressor transfers through the normal ATF Form 4 process.
We will not risk a customer’s suppressor, our Federal Fi****ms License, or our customers’ legal standing based on a Facebook post or an interpretation of a court ruling.
We are actively following the case and watching for official ATF guidance and further developments.
If and when the law clearly allows Code Blue Fi****ms to transfer suppressors without a Form 4, we’ll be ready—and our customers will be among the first to know.
This is a major development for suppressor owners and the fi****ms industry, and we’re excited to see where it goes. We simply believe in doing it the right way and the legal way.
