In this article, we discuss the personal ownership of machine guns. While suppressors, short barrel rifles, and short barrel shotguns are commonplace with NFA owners, machine guns are discussed much less. To many, their acquisition and ownership remain a mystery. Even though they are legal, many people are still unaware they can privately possess them.

As suppressors have become more popular over the last few years, many hunters are starting to see the benefits of using them while in the field.

Fundamentally, there are only two ways to effectively attach a silencer to the end of your rifle. The first is by means of a direct thread interface. Simply thread the silencer on until it is tight, and you are good to go. The second method is by way of some sort of muzzle device attachment. Usually, this mount is attached semi permanently to the muzzle of the host rifle and gives a consistent style of mount for the silencer. We sell silencers that use both types, and have found that each type has positives and negatives that are dependent on the customer's use case.
