If a silencer has always been too expensive.

Those are real good to get more mileage out of your pistol

Yea, just change it every 5k

Well i think you could use it for multiple calibers, so if it works for .223, or 7.62 there is a lot larger savings. That being said, no thanks, i will stick with the real thing.

Looks like its just a big cave silencer . You can build one with baffles for $ 50 with out any major machinery .

This is a horrible idea.

Support the industry and buy a darn suppressor.

First, the guy is a class 3 manufacturer in order to make/sell these, so by buying one you ARE supporting the industry. Just not the part of the industry that YOU think needs supported.

Second, i am still curious about my question.

If i cannot get a suppressor that i can change the baffle stacks out on so i can shoot differant calibers because the second baffle stack IS a suppressor, then how is this legal when you change oil filters?

Would the second oil filter not be considered a suppressor also?

I am thinking the oil filter falls into the category "not exclusively designed for" category. Its like the ATF opinion that says you can use some machine gun parts in a gun if the parts are not solely and exclusively designed for full auto( like m16 bolts), baffles made for a silencer have only one practical use, oil filters are different in that the have non suppressor usage.

This is just a train wreck getting ready to happen, I imagine the ATF is just waiting for some of these to be sold and then change their minds about approving of them. Maybe instead of sending in the spring from your Akins accelerator you just won't be able to own a car that takes an oil filter with the same threads as the adaptor.

Yes would be super easy and inexpensive to make a silencer...but not worth prison time.

 

[42769vette]

pretty neat, but paying for the suppressor is not the part of the bill that pisses me off, its the 200 dollar stamp

 

[95wrangler]

Just paint the filter black and youll never know its there!

 

[alloyguitar]

couldn't you buy the registered thing, and build something in leu of an oil filter on the front of it?

i.e. build a suppressor around that registered thing, since the rest is "replaceable parts?"

EDIT: Just read Kenny's post about exclusively designed parts. Herrrrrrm.

i think it is very interesting but it is missing the cool factor..or maybe not..nothing makes your gun more cool than a stp oil filter....
I would do it but it seems like that the suppressor is the oil filter...doesnt make sense to me so I will pass
