im looking to get a suppressor on my m4 what form do ineed and where do i get one? and where will this be sent, thanks ive read the fee is $200 |
First you need to find a C3 dealer in your area. Here are several mfgrs of suppressors -- if you contact them, they can point you to a local dealer. SWR Suppressors AAC Suppressors SRT Suppressors Gemtech Here are a couple of links to descriptions of the process: Suppressor Ownership info and Ownership Legalities The dealer will guide you through the process -- you will be filing a Form 4 to transfer the suppressor to you. The one time Federal tax is $200. Dave |
| You pay the $200 tax for every title II item -- a short barrel rifle (SBR), a short shotgun, a silencer, a machine gun etc (an AOW is a $5 tax, but that is another matter). The one suppressor covered by your one $200 tax can be used on different guns as long as the caliber is compatible with the suppressor. So if you want to SBR an AR-15 and put on a suppressor, it would be two form 4's and 2 x $200 = $400 tax. |
but could i get a 11.5" barrel with a 7" can or a 14.5" barrel with a 5" can |
There are a lot of things that you can do, but to be legal, you have to register the lower as an SBR if you are planning on using any barrel with a length less than 16". If the suppressor is permanently mounted to the barrel and the barrel + suppressor assembly is over 16" you are good to go with just a suppressor Form 4 and a single $200 tax. Dave |
