You still have to observe all of the other regulations , but suppressors are legal. Just make sure you keep your stamp on you. Essentially, you have a super sneaky squirrel gun.

Had a friend who was a marine sniper. He hunted everything with a 7mm mag but squirrels. Interestingly enough, his weapon of choice for squirrels was a pump airgun (or a blowgun when he was really felling like a sharpshooter).

Whole lot cheaper than getting a stamp for a suppressor.

That being said, I will have one one of these days!

I found a cheaper suppressor, :pleased:

It's hard to aim and bullet deflection is probably bad..but for the money?

...unless you factor in the $100,000 in fines and five years in federal lock-up if you get caught with one and don't have a Form 1.

They said in the video you can pay a tax stamp on it. Still wouldn't buy one... pretty useless if you intend to hit anything beyond 50m.

I guess its just attractive because its multi caliber and the cheapest suppressor one can buy.

You form one the piece the oil filter screws into not the actual filter

Except the oil filter now becomes a silencer part and is to be handled by law in the same way as a silencer.

Hunting in Tennessee with a supressor is legal as long as all federal regulations have been followed. You are required to carry a copy of your paperwork on your person while hunting.

No from the atf only the little piece that threads onto the barrel is the suppressor. These have been out for sometime.

Still an oil filter is a lot cheaper than my yhm phantom. But you would need some extra high scope mounts and your point of aim would be a little off from hitting the filter. :-)

Will this work with synthetic oil or it is only designed for dino?

How many rounds before you have to change the filter?

Can't help but think how neat a chrome harley filter would look on that pistol.

Wouldn't that mean that a quick disconnect is a suppressor and the QD-mounted suppressor is just another oil filter?

Silly me, and here I was expecting suppressor laws to make sense. :crazy:
