Hi, I have a few legal questions about suppressors. The reason I’m asking is because I would like a super quiet, over sized, full auto, 22 suppressor. Something like a dead air mask, but the size of a standard 9mm can. Ok here’s the questions:
#1 - Is it legal for a suppressor manufacturer to change the caliber of a suppressor. I have an old Gemtech Trinity 9mm suppressor I haven’t used in years. I’d love the have a manufacturer remove the old K baffles and turn it into a take apart, over sized .22lr suppressor complete with modern .22 baffle stack. Sure the suppressor body and form 4 would have 9mm listed as the caliber, but it would now be a .22 only suppressor.
#2 - is it possible for me to form 1 a tube, have it engraved with my information and then send it to a manufacturer and have them make me a custom can? Form 1s are taking a month right now and that sounds a lot better than waiting a year.
#3 - If I buy a suppressor from an out of state manufacturer it it possible to fly to that state and pick up the suppressor directly once the form 4 is approved.
Thanks,
Dan
