Just bought my third suppressor. Another Hybrid. That makes two Hybrids for my stable, and a 9mm shorty for the bedside.

SS shows them in stock, but if you add one a big red banner comes up and says not in stock, but the description still says in stock.

I just bought my last four tax stamps for recent suppressor purchases.

We get our bonuses this week and I'll be buying two more SBR stamps to complete my pre-41f purchases.

I'm finally getting in the NFA game. The day before yesterday I filled out my trust, had it notarized yesterday, and last night I bought an AAC 7.62-SD, and a YHM Stinger. So now I'm waiting with everyone else. Maybe I'll get lucky and get them in time for Christmas.

Thanks. I put a Saker 7.62 on layaway last night. So I think I will be pretty well covered across the board.

I found a Hybrid and Omega 9k with speq pricing at local dealer today and snatched them up. That's it, no more silencers, I'm done. I think 16 is enough, and I'm not doing anything post 41f.

Just bought a GhostM at an awesome price.  I thought the Obsidian would suffice, but I had really wanted a Ghost to go with my SandmanS and Mask.  I really can't have too many pistol cans, right??  That takes me to an even 20, where I plan on staying.  Unless I pick up another Mask or another Specwar-K.  Of course I've also thought about an Omega 9K and an Osprey9.  

I'm hoping after 41F goes into affect, it's going to save me some money!

Picked up a Griffin Resistance 45 today. Don't even own a 45, and all my subguns are 9mm.

I currently have as far as pistol caliber cans go
Wraith XL 9mm (use on my m11/9 with Lage uppers)
STG 9mm (for my U9 MG)
Burgess can for my SW76
And an Octane 9

Shooting machine guns in 9mm , I got rid of all my other caliber handguns as I buy a lot of 9mm

Figured I'd get a .45 can on my trust for the future, and until I get another 45 pistol it can live on my AR9 or scorpion.

That being said, the omega 9k is interesting and I'm trying to hold off purchasing one

Would you mind sharing your awesome price? I am hoping to get one before 41F but still waiting on my dealer to get their orders in. Just curious. Thanks.

This thread should be stickied...;-)



Like (hopefully) many, many other Americans, 41F pushed me off the fence on NFA. I see a lot of "what should I do" threads, so maybe this will help/inform others like myself? Anyhow....to the story:

Well, I've been sitting the suppressor world out for a lot of years, mostly because my work has the potential to move me around or out of the country any time. Also, until this whole trust thing went mainstream, I was a bit skeptical about it (even though we let corporations run our politics - heh). The last couple of years I've had my head under a rock where the NFA market is concerned due to life in general staying complicated. However, 41F got my attention. I don't believe in spreading my fingerprints, ID info, and the list of what I own all over hell and gone, and especially not to LE I don't know and any other place open to FOIA requests from communists.

I decided to pull the trigger on a trust and small collection that I figured would do everything I want to do for some time to come. The trust allows people that are in-state and are staying here to serve as backup possession if I have to move out of the country for a while. I kept the budget sane, and also decided to not put all the eggs in one basket. A law office here in Nevada did a great job setting me up with an NFA trust within a week, and I had all of the legal stuff prepped within two weeks of deciding to jump.

Fortunately, Reno recently got a *serious* gun store that stocks NFA items and has an indoor range. Sure, they are full retail, but saving a few bucks is not part of the NFA game, so it didn't matter. Last year they had tons of cans in stock, from what people tell me. When I went down some weeks ago, they were pretty cleaned out with the 41F run and all. I saw Silencer Shop's 41F guarantee right when they announced it, and decided that it wasn't a risk. They were also very thin on inventory at that time, so pickings were slim all around.

I decided to lock up a couple cans through SS and also local to spread the potential paperwork SNAFUs a bit. I have the typical firearms suite like anyone that's been shooting from a young age, from hunting and precision rifles through AR's to .22's and a couple CF handguns. Nothing crazy, but not just one either. I have a small family and they like to shoot too. So, the question was how do I cover the bases and not get put in the doghouse for a few months at the same time? I'm not a believer in CC debt so that came into play as well. I had liquidated a couple of items not long ago, so I had got a small fund together.

Here were my needs, and I wanted the capability to field at least 2 of each at any one time:

1) dedicated precision rifle up to 300WM
2) .22LR
3) 5.56 / AR
4) CF handgun
5) future whatever

I'm not a "weight weenie" or collector, so having 15 cans sounds awesome but is not practical for me. I am into quality, durability, and flexibility. Given what I had to work with locally and at SS, here's what I ended up with:

SiCo Hybrid
Sig 556 direct
SiCo Octane 45
MackBros 7.62
Palmetto Minilith .22 (stainless baffle set)
Gemtech .22 (aluminum baffle set)

The one thing that I wish I had available was a 7.62 can that was titanium and user-serviceable. A light handgun can (Omega9) would also have been nice, but not necessary. I feel like this is a useful, durable, and flexible collection. I'll walk through the reasoning:

1) .22LR - 3 cans available, since the Octane is SS and user-serviceable. Long-term, this is the most important, since in terms of round count it will see the most action. Having a super-lightweight aluminum can available was good, having one with SS baffles was crucial (I own a stainless media tumbler).

2) CF handgun/carbine - 2 cans available, one of which (Octane) will be dirty-ammo friendly. The Hybrid offers pretty high sound performance.

3) 5.56 - 3 cans available: Sig (which is KISS, I love it), Hybrid, and MackBros. Two are easily swapped with AR direct threading.

4) CF rifle - 2 cans available: Hybrid and MackBros. Hybrid will be pretty freakin' light for hunting purposes. MackBros should be nice and repeatable for precision matches.

5) .300blk - OK, so this was in the back of my mind, since I've always been attracted to the 300 Whisper project. 3 cans available (supersonic is 2). Again, Hybrid should be the best here.

6) Anything really strange/large, I can always use the Hybrid.


That about sums it up. No, I couldn't buy any of the really high-speed stuff like TB or Liberty or whatever, but I'm thinking that I will be really happy with this collection (and so will my family). I'm looking forward to giving my kids better hearing than I have....

OK NFA pros, how do you rate that setup? :-D I can say that I know how to put bullets on steel, but I'll admit I got a heck of an education in suppressors over the last month. This forum helped a lot.
