I want to put together a silencer shoot at the Northwoods Shooting Sports range near Barnum. http://www.northwoodsshooting.com/ Anyone know this range? Randy |

We can legally purchase and own?? |

A big round of THANK YOU's to everyone who put in those long hours fighting the good fight!! And thanks to everyone for the email/phone campaign!! Now... The only question left unanswered...
When can we start having cans transferred in to our SOT's? Does the law have to be in effect before the ATF approves the form 3? |

Is there a good one that will work well on both a ruger 10/22 and a mk iii?

July 1st they are legal to possess. August 1st you can legally hunt with them.

Your dealer can possess it for you now. I would talk to a dealer about this though.
I doubt the ATF will let you file your paperwork with them until July 1st though. I plan on sending in a form 1 suppressor (manufacture) a bit before July 1st to see what happens. I need to research that a bit first. I am not sure how long until the e-form gets processed or what happens if they reject it because the law hasn't changed yet. It would be nice if they would just hold it for you for a few days. Right now I have to research trusts. |

As for submitting your form 1 or 4 with the ATF, you'll be able to submit it any time, it's just that the examiner will deny it if the law isn't in effect when the form makes it to their desk. So it's a timing gamble. If you want some help in narrowing down the timing for how long it takes a form to get to an examiner, you can use NFA tracker. For paper form 4s, I'd feel OK submitting them right now. eForm 1s are going pretty fast though. http://www.nfatracker.com/ |

I really want a 14" 870 View Quote Better get started then. I would recommend researching crime associated with SBS in MN. When and if you are able to prove that registered SBS in MN are not associated with crime in MN, then go shopping for a sponsor. I would recommend a blue dog Democrat; but settle for anyone who is willing to push the bill through like Cornish did with the silencer bill. Several years ago I was researching silencer crime in MN, never really found any useful data though as little was kept. Good luck. Randy |

They won't let you take most gun parts on via carryon, I can't imagine they'd let you take a suppressor into the cabin with you. There's a thread in the NFA forum with lots of helpful material, I've never personally done it but it doesn't seem to be that much more of a pain than flying with a regular firearm. If there's any doubt, call the airline and get it straight from the horse's mouth. |

SBS is the final NFA toy we can't have. I have a shotgun that's 18.1" it kinda scares me. I have three870's that are 18.1" I really want a 14" 870 That's what my 870 started out as, with factory installed pistol grip and a over folding stock. Now that my stamp is back I have a 14'' barrel to install after I get it engraved. In Michigan I had to register it as a pistol because it was under 30'' OAL with the stock folded. Our state police fought to keep that law in place until people started to carry them as pistols under a CPL. Then they fought to have it changed to federal guidelines, but people like me are grandfathered in. Since it's a NFA gun now I won't try to carry it anymore. |

With the law change this creates a unique situation for us in MN. I plan on building my own can, and submitting a Form 1. Question is, do I need to wait for the law to become active, or do I submit my paperwork now seeing it'll take 5-6+ months before someone looks at it anyway? What are people going to do that are building their own? Curious your thoughts. Thanks for your help!

Form 1's are taking mini 75 days right now, GOCRA just posted this on their FB page "We talked to the ATF this morning, and they confirmed that even if you mailed in your paperwork today, it would almost certainly be later than July 1 before anyone actually looked at your eligibility.".. I filed a form 1 this morning and it went pending research, I am not to worried about it. If anything they will probably leave it in research status until July 1st. |

This begs me to ask a few questions as a suppressor newbie.
I will be looking to add a few to the collection - 5.56 10.5" SBR - AAC SDN 762 300 BLK 10.5" SBR - AAC SDN 762 Spikes Tactical Mid-length ST-22 Upper - Silencerco Sparrow (SS?) The SBRs are not built yet so I have some flexibility in building them up. Seeing the talks on muzzle brakes, what will and wont work with the above. The ST-22 is already built, and I would have to look at what is currently installed. Are suppressors typically threaded and easy to remove? I would like to keep one each on the SBRs. I am going to root around in the other threads to teach myself some more, but figured I would ask the locals here first. |

The sparrow will thread onto any 1/2x28 thread that is .400 long. Most AR barrels are threaded .600 long so you will need a spacer. My Spectre 2 came with one but that was a year ago when I bought it. I don't know if SiCo is still shipping them with spacers. |

This is great news. I'm moving to the state as we speak. I had amended my trust to add a relative as a Co-Trustee. Poor him doesn't get to enjoy my suppressor. I'll be bringing it with me.

My Spectre 2 came with one but that was a year ago when I bought it. I don't know if SiCo is still shipping them with spacers. The main advantage to sticking with ONE specific manufacturer that utilizes a standardized muzzle device (flash/comp/whatever) with their own proprietary attachment method is that they are typically less susceptible to thread wear. The fine 1/2"-28 and 5/8-24 threaded suppressors are FINE threads. Meaning they are easily damaged if there is dirt & crap on the threads, and if you repeatedly swap it around from one weapon to another, those threads can wear out. Since my suppressor will live out 90% of its time on a 300 BLK, and 10% of its life on a 308 bolt gun, I went with a quality can from a lesser known brand that uses 5/8" threads. If I knew for sure I'd be swapping it around a lot, I'd do more research, choose carefully for attachment methods, pick the most robust & consistent, and buy numerous muzzle devices for all the weapons onto which it might be attached. This will increase the lifespan of the suppressor without wearing out the threaded muzzle end cap. So you have to weigh your options on how you will most likely use your suppressor. If your can is going to likely spend most of its time on ONE weapon - I'd say go with conventional 1/2" or 5/8" threads... If you're going to swap it around a lot, go with a dedicated attachment method to avoid wearing out your fine threads. |

The report of the brakes wasn't the issue, the muzzle blast was. I wore foam ear plugs under my electronic muffs.
Battle comp on the right, and a surefire on the left. I flinched every time one went off. So I waited for them to shot, and I get chastised for holding up the course of fire. Asked to be moved, said once we line up that's your assigned spot, for the next 3 days. The next class I'll take will be if brakes are not allowed. I'm starting to see that more and more. |

View Quote I understand what you're saying. In my example above, I gave my 12.5" gun with Surefire to the shooter next to me for an extended drill and then altered my position in relation to the brake. At one point, I was directly even with the brake and about 4 feet to the left and didn't have any problem. I have taken a couple of classes where I've been next to some BattleComps, a Spike's Dynacomp, KAC Triple Tap and MAMS. To me, it's just a chance to practice shooting through distractions. Or, again, I may just be a masochist with respect to muzzle concussion... |
