SUPPRESSORS

In order to purchase a suppressor, the following information is provided:

The United States taxes and strictly regulates the manufacture and sale of suppressors under the National Firearms Act. They are legal for individuals to possess and use for lawful purposes in thirty-eight of the fifty states. However, a prospective user must go through an application process administered by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE), which requires a Federal tax payment of US$200.00 and a thorough criminal background check.
