For those wondering I got my first tax free tax stamp approved today. It was on a silincer shop trust submitted the 2nd or 3rd week of JAN. I sure thought the huge amount submitted Jan 1 would have waits back up to 6 months plus. Its nice to be wrong..

I want one but it’s a bad investment at my age is the way I look at it.

That’s pretty good timing.

…. I’ve been losing sleep wondering if you got it

…. Congratulations

Submitted Jan 1, approved Jan 4.
I was expecting at least a month or two, if not 4 or 5!

The way I look at it is if you don't spend your money someone else will.

You can get a good can for 6-900 bucks. Buy one and enjoy it.

Create a trust and add kids and grandkids to it.

Have it drawn up where one of the kids will take over if you are no longer able to

If nothing else, do it for their hearing

6-900 bucks?!!! Wow I thought $350 was robbery. In fact I still do. Having a machine shop, I look at those things and I dont think I will ever buy a premade one again. I can build that in half a day with less than $50 in materials, and that is just using common machine tools without having a specific setup geared toward making cans. Granted some of the baffles are probably custom cast or machined, but I can assure you someone is absolutely BANKING at those prices.

I expect that with the changes in regs, competition and market forces will start to correct that ridiculous price bubble. I sure hope so.

Look up Caylee's cans. Says she gonna start making a titanium can for .22 that will sell for $200.00

I am progressively becoming deaf. My cochlear implant surgery will be in May. I have to dial my hearing aid volume to the max, and that is probably harming what little hearing I still have.

Maybe all rifles should be manufactured with suppressors. I think they are ugly, but so are cochlear devices and hearing aids.

Ya loose arrow it will be a race to the bottom. Crap materials and bad designs. There is more to it then a tub with some cone shaped baffles. Large difference in pitch, tone, and decibals. Then length and weight and pressures.


I have seen some very poor designs from guys that had a machine shop so got got their ffl.

Thought being built like a tank was a selling point. Stainless 30 cal weighed 2 lbs and rattled when it was shaken.

Then what barrel length will it handel pressures at with what cal-s.


Called the shop earlier today to be sure the girl that dose the paper work was going to be there when I got off. She said she was. When I got there she had gone home sick. Hope she gets to feeling better.
