    Filling Form 1 Today!

    Filling the Form 1 today to make my own can. I'll be posting updates through this thread on performance of what I come up with after I get my stamp back which hopefully will be sooner than later since many are reporting about 30 days for Form 1 approvals lately. My plans are going to be for an 8" for my first to see how well it performs for .277 Wolverine but will also try on 6.8 and eventually the 7mm Valkerie when I get her built, if it works out I may submit for a 6'' version as well. This will mostly be Titanium, Ti tube, Ti endcaps threaded for the griffin mounts, Ti spacers, blast chamber will be either stainless or Ti haven't decided yet, and will most likely form 60 degree cone baffles from stainless. Wish me luck!

    Awesome GA!! Are you going with the YHM mount BigWaylon is using for his? I've been following that thread on 68 with interest. I'll be following your progress as well

    I think I'm going with the Griffin mount because I like the comp option for the 10.5 Wolverine. I possibly will just go direct thread since it most likely homesteadon my WLV.

    10-4 was just curious. Interesting to see so many people venturing a form 1 suppressor lately. Good luck and hope to "not" hear it soon.

    Thanks, I just hope I'm not making a titanium tube of death. Would you like to come take the first shots through it?!

    Forgive me, haven't been keeping up with the forms too much, but did the ATF put eForms back up again? I know they had them up for a little bit, and then I think they took them back down, no?

    But hey, good stuff GS! Can't wait to see the pictures! ... maybe a cerakote job from BDL is in order?

    I think we got spoiled with 30 day approvals... now 2+ months is getting out of control for me.

    Congrats! Can't wait to see a range report.

    Yep, when I sent it in everyone was saying oh they have been approving in like a month. I think everyone had the same idea and filled when I did.
