Suppressor SCAM How to avoid the Can Scam 

Anecdotal.

​@@TUKByV Right. That's what due diligence is for. Dealer says brand X is a good product, your job is to talk to previous buyers and find out if it's worthwhile. Stop being a stereotypical consumer who needs to be coddled through your purchase and do some friggin' legwork.

@@TestUser-cf4wj Thanks for ranting. You still offer only one utterly unconfirmed anecdote. "Uh, this dude near my house sells a thing!"

Id like suppressors if buying one (at the NFA inflated prices) if doing-so didn't put you on the ONLY LEGAL GOVERNMENT REGISTRY of firearms and other NFA items. The ATF making it easier for people to Obtain firearms *and especially NFA items), that should set off HUGE alarms and red flags! See my main reply in the comments - information has leaked allegedly detailingtheir plans. The alleged leak lays out that ATF is registering as many people as they can on the NFA registry, as part of a devious plan to destroy/arrest gun owners. And NFA owners are among those who own larger pewwpeww collections. I am saddened so many people aren't up in arms saying, "the ATF is making it easier for us to SBRs and Cans? Umm, that can't be good!".

Yep, my hopes for another Silencerco bogo deal this summer is pretty much gone.

6 days is crazy!

It was considered the best of the best for a very long time. There are newer designs that are slightly better now but not enough of a difference for me to upgrade just yet.

What is a tax stamp exactly and what did it cost? How hard is it to get one like what are they looking for to deny you?

I got to test fire a couple Witt Machine suppressors with my dealer. I was impressed with the cannooter valve 5.56 on a Tavor. It's heavy for it's size but balanced well on a bullpup. Killed the flash and kept the sound level to the shooter to roughly the same as the bullet crack (didn't have meters at this event). I ordered one the same day. On the other hand, I tried their 9mm can on an MPX with 9mm subsonics. Assumed hearing safe, big mistake. Thought maybe the first round pop was just terrible. Fired 3 more before we all agreed "f that thing". Somehow their mini 5.56 with supers was WAY quieter than their 9mm with subs. Lol

Hhmmm..... When it comes to owning something that can allow those in authority to decide where you live for the next 10 years, it is better to abide by the law of the land in my opinion, when deciding to own a suppressor, SBR or SBS etc... But hey - You Do You sir....
