    Default Suppressors / Trainers ?

    Probably a dumb question, but isn't a "tactical trainer" still a form of suppressor/silencer ? I would think it would still suppress the sound somewhat. If a Sig Mosquito had a tactical trainer on it, would it be quieter than without ? In Pa, do you need a tax stamp or anything special to have a real silencer ? Just curious, always looking for new items to add to my collection Thanks !

    No ATF restriction on the trainer, The stamp comes with the approved form4. Purchase of a suppressor requires a form 4 with CLEO sign off, fingerprints and citizenship form. They are legal in PA

    Don't ask, I can't figure out why either. Maybe "Fake Silencer" sounds too lame.
    Wouldn't you like to know what's in my safe.

    Sadly, many many people have tried to turn a FAKE one into a real one.

    They were all over youtube once, and they worked , of course not like the real thing but maybe 40-50% reduction.

    The best part is once you own a Fake Suppressor reworked to suppress hence becoming a suppressor and have no stamp, you automatically qualify for a free Membership in Club Fed, and as added bonus the first vacation is on them for a stay of 10yrs at their new resort called The Big Bar Hotel
