I live in an acreage where I can legally fire my handgunds. My neighbours complain about the noise and I have decided to buy a supressor. I am a straight up person with not even traffic ticket in 10 years. I see the following on Gemtech's website

Where can I download the necessary forms?
The required transfer paperwork is available from the BATFE on their website. However, your dealer will usually supply you with the necessary forms.
Fingerprint cards are usually obtained from your local law enforcement agency when they fingerprint you.

FINGERPRINT CARDS - what are these used for and are they kept on file. I've bought many guns with no problems and now they want my prints for a suppressor. This is odd as suppressors are harmless. I have never liked the govt possessing infromation that is not needed for the immediate purpose (and if it is detroy after use). Can anyone she any light on this/
I have also heard of NRA trusts - how do they work and what are the adavantages and costs?
I need to get a 9 mm suppressor and wondering the best way to do it. I live in WA state. Any and all replies are appreciated.
Best thing to do in my opinion is to find a NFA or some call them Class III FFL Dealer. The dealer should assist you with filling out the necessary paperwork and paying the tax to purchase a suppressor. Gemtech and Silencerco should have a listing of dealers in your state. Good Luck and be patient. Might take a few months.
