oil filter suppressor....legalities.

[jjoker16]

This dose not seem legal. Has anyone heard of these and know how legal they are? Interesting either way. It dosent seem nearly as efficient as the real deal. But kinda cool none the less. Especially for $75.

If it's the same thing I remember reading about a few years ago, the piece that goes between the barrel and the filter are to be registered as a suppressor.

Yep, and there was a ruling that if you change the filter that it must go back to the manufacturer if I remember correctly a while back. Some numb nuts are buying "solvent traps" off eBay that are essentially the same item minus serial number and nfa registration. Wonder how that would work if you form 1 one of those. In theory you would be the manufacturer. Wonder if you, as the manufacturer, could service (change the filter) on your own item?

The "patch traps" seem to be for sale everywhere nowdays for $10-20 with threads to fit any filter.
$200 tax stamps suck but are much better than federal time!

If you e-file tomorrow, you might only be waiting 3-4 months.

I wouldnt use an oil filter unless I was throwing the gun off the bridge with it...

I saw this for the first time about 15 minutes ago and was coming on here to ask. Glad I saw this thread first. Does anyone know how well it works, if it all? The adapters are all over ebay and if you add a $200 tax stamp it's at least a lot cheaper than most others. I'm not saying it seems like a good idea, but I'd like to know about anyone's personal experiences.

I shot one. I think it was an econocan. Not very impressed. My factory cans are quieter. Also couldn't see the sights. Might work on a rifle with tall scope mount or something.

Those aren't suppressors. Those are firearm filtration systems. You know, something to clean your gun.

Unless you want to be disappointment, stick with the proven vendors and the local stores who give you the honest details of the gear you buy.

I think everything has a place, but the truth is, you can get a good can pretty dang cheap now days, and you will appreciate it much more than the erwl filter or solvent trap

If you really want a cheap can...

I'd keep an eye on this. FAR better than an oil can. It will pay for itself in shipping/replacement alone in about 2,000 rounds compared to the oil-can filter junk, which you initially purchase, and then would have to replace @3 times to hit 1K rounds with.

It makes far better sense.
