I would find an LGS in your state that has one in stock. All suppressor transfers between manufacturers, distributors, and dealers require a Form 3 that's taking about three months now for the BATFE to approve. So if you order it online you will probably get a better deal (even with the transfer fee), but you'll be waiting about three months longer due to the Form 3 transfer time.

And make sure the LGS actually has one in stock and doesn't have to order it for you; if you have to wait the extra three months for the Form 3 to clear you might as well get it online for less.
