They are easy enough to make and I don’t even need to register them.

You can buy the thread adapter on ebay or amazon, and use a discarded oil filter, and poof, I have a suppressor.

No need for all of these expensive devices, registrations etc. I can keep the Oil filter available for it’s intended use, and keep the thread adapter in my tool box.

Sorry, but you do need to register anything before you even start that project.....and pay the $200 tax stamp.

Unless you like $250,000 fines for a cheap oil filter.

Suppressors ought to be removed from the NFA list. If they weren’t on the NFA list they would be $50 and sold at Walmart.

I used to agree with that opinion, but once you start to learn more about suppressors, you see that a lot goes into producing them. To begin with, many are made of titanium, not inexpensive regardless of the product it is in.

One made of steel is just as good. And if they were available at every local mart, you would get a discount for the economy of scale.

You do need a license to build, but for DIY, this is totally cool.
