“Suppressor. Not silencer.”
Actually, the term in the 1934 NFA is ‘silencer’. The term ‘suppressor’ was invented by nerds that thought they were being ‘more correct’.

Hiram maxim got a patent for a silencer. He was the first one. That’s what he named it. That was also the name of it in federal law. Modern tacticool kids who stick their Glock down the front of their pants aimed right at their penis call it a suppressor.
