Former SOF sniper Steve Adelmann dispels many of the myths surrounding suppressor use and ownership in the March issue of Shooting Illustrated magazine, on newsstands today. His step-by-step guide explains the paperwork required to purchase and own a suppressor, advantages other than noise reduction, today’s generation of QD mounts that often allow users to use a single “can” on different firearms, and much more.
“While the regulations are cumbersome, once navigated successfully the payoff is a
device that can make shooting more fun, safer for your ears, better for your
relations with your neighbors and perhaps even result in tighter groups,”
Adelmann writes. “Suppressors provide more benefits than simple sound reduction.
Military shooters also enjoy the simultaneous reduction in the visual signature
they provide.” Also included are tips to keep suppressed guns running smoothly
and accurately, and an explanation of the benefits to establishing an NFA Trust
to allow the important people in your life access to your gun muffler.
