Silencerco: How to Purchase a Silencer

[@1fastben]

I freaking love you, Silencerco. Thank you for making videos that are entertaining and have character!

[@greventlv]

This is so brilliant. This should have a million likes.

[@SolubleSpork]

I love you guys. This kind of stuff is just great and makes me love your company even more. Finished setting up my trust a few weeks back and I'm saving up for my 22sparrow now.

The United Kingdom, where buying a silencer is a 10 minute process. However almost everything else gun related is a complete headache, d'oh

[@TheUnseenSoldier]

In the year of 2011, the United Kingdom had a violent crime rate of 3,100 per 100,000 residents while the United States had a violent crime rate of 380 per 100,000 residents. England and Wales has consistently had a signifgantly higher overall crime rate since 1980 and continued to be signifigantly higher after the Firearms Act of 1988 ("Assault" weapons ban). Following this legislation the overall crime rate spiked up to a staggering rate of nearly 11,000 crimes per 100,000 in 1991, while during the same year, in the US the overall crime rate was almost half of that ( 5,897 crimes per 100,000). This being said "Gun" crime in the UK did eventually drop far below the US, however this had absolutely no effect on the same crimes guns were being used to commit. This information leads me to conclude that gun control has no effect on crime, period. So why doesn't Parliament repeal it?...... *cough* tyrannical government *cough* *cough* making the people weaker so they can control them and take away the rest of their rights *cough*....

[@serperioriority]

DeadValor, that's not entirely true. The UK defines "violent crime" much more broadly than the US does. Politifact did an article on that claim, and when adjusting for discrepancies they still found that the UK had a higher crime rate, albeit by a smaller factor of only 2:1 as opposed to the ~8:1 in yours.

[@deathnote9272]

maybe because a silencer isnt a weapon. idk why the US needs to regulate them so bad lol

[@1957Shep]

Very creative and funny.

[@Saxxonknight]

Suppressors should not be difficult nor require all this crap. They are not a firearm themselves, and are a safety device that is REQUIRED in most European countries to hunt. This is one area we have it totally backwards, thanks to Hollywood BS creating a stigma. How many people have been shot with a suppressed firearm (ie assassination) - I haven't heard of one in 50 years. I am sure there are a few, but that tiny number indicates the lack of a true problem. But every time someone fires in self defense, they are certain to not have hearing protection on and thus suffer hearing loss from the 160db+ discharge.

[@TheUnseenSoldier]

Yeah! There should be an OSHA regulation legalizing the use of suppressors! For safety!

[@fwir711u2]

DeadValorProductions OSHA cannot regulate private individuals, they only have say over business safety regulations

[@Saxxonknight]

Tyler Hammock I'd bet it could be pushed in a place of business ie indoor range. or even required with purchase of a firearm - some states mandate purchase of a lock under guise of safety.

[@fwir711u2]

Saxxonknight that's not an OSHA regulation, OSHA ONLY regulates rules in regards to businesses a private citizen outside of an employer is not required to abide by any OSHA rules or regulations. Indoor ranges are businesses, therefore are required to abide by OSHA rules, however privately owned ranges that are not intended to become a business are therefore not regulated by OSHA.

[@Gribba77]

Since 2015 Minnesota is now silencer legal!! Yay!

[@flexman909]

I need to get out of Cali

[@theemikeymike]

Cool vid. Love the idea of going vintage!!! Can't wait for my 762 saker!!!!!!

[@Ozzie4Para]

I have a S&W Victory and I really want to buy a suppressor but I have no idea which one to buy. There's so many choices...

[@MartyHorn]

I got my stamp just a few weeks ago and the process took 344 days...a bit longer than advertised but worth the wait. I did file as an individual and got an Osprey for my .45ACP.

[@Two-Stack]

I like the "come and get it" in Greek.

[@AnotherClich3]

Props to the Silencerco media team, or perhaps the third party contractor?

[@michaeldunne1348]

3 to 4 months... I wish!

[@masonkang5501]

i feel i learn better with these videos

[@JohnShaw26.2]

Hahahaha I'm at work, laughing at my desk and I have coworkers coming over asking what's so funny. Great video guys! Lol

[@Landlord_Tipper]

I was gonna buy an AAC or a Surefire, but this video pushed me to get a Silencerco

[@Reuschman]

Iowa recently removed the ban on suppressers

[@MartinBenek198]

Hahaha nice!!! This is perfect guys. Really well done.

[@RamadiTaxiDriver60M]

That was the funniest most well put together video since some of the "Hitler rants" videos I've seen...

[@Fergesslich]

Really creative and funny video!

[@TheDragonDelasangre]

Very good video! Made me chuckle and is actually informative!

[@JustinSMC]

Welp, this is the best thing I’ve seen in a long time

[@JAyy781]

Do I just apply for an NFA Trust online?

[@mafirearmsafety]

Now in 2023 has there been any changes?

[@jeffreybonell4641]

how does this not have more views...

[@whatservicetojoin8593]

*Some of that is obsolete ! When I checked in 2016 - Silencers r now legal in at least 42 States !* Maybe Silencerco will make a new Video about that.

[@93crazygunz]

Gee guys this video is swell! I best save some scratch for the new 7.62 saker! Haha love this video!!

[@bigred2989]

Should have done my research. I thought the CLEO check was done after the ATF approved the Tax Stamp. Should have realized that was stupid. Also, if the CLEO denies the sale, can you challenge it or even go as far as to sue?

[@PaperPlanesLife]

Sue? Lol Why would you be able to sue? The CLEO has authority, they get to make a decision, they don't have to sign crap! They have no obligation to OK it, and there is no "appeal." If there were, here is how things would go: *You*: "Here is my paperwork. Can I have a silencer?" *CLEO*: "Nope" *You*: "I'd like to file an appeal. I have all my paperwork in order and can legally own a silencer - so can I have a silencer?" *CLEO*: "Nope." You see, it's not a matter of whether you legally can or not, it's a matter of if they want to accept the liability of you owning one - and they don't. If you wanted to own a silencer here in FL, you would get a "no" every single time, so the only way for you to get one is by paying to set up a Gun Trust/NFA Trust. Through setting up a NFA Trust, you accept all liability for the ownership if it's used in a crime, so you can get around having to deal with your CLEO.

[@AwesomeMegaBalls]

Paper Planes Life But if you drive over to our Alabama neighbors you can buy one easy peasy!

[@fwir711u2]

I'm glad I'm a licensed class 3 dealer I don't need a trust or file as an individual and I get my silencers within a couple days

[@Excedrine]

Love the video. Hate the BATFE and NFA laws, which need to be repealed.

[@MrVinman7]

Well i just found out i cant buy a silencer. Thanks Minnesota.

[@Gribba77]

silencers are now legal in mn since last year

[@rys5316]

I'll get you one and drive it to you one U.S citizen to another XD

[@keenanwalker6597]

This video is awesome too funny but educational too not sure if it's the same process now though I heard they took the online forms away. Let's just hope and pray the S.H.A.R.E act goes through so we can walk out with one same day

[@Suffocate007]

6-27-14 The BATF's site has not been able to handle the traffic and has crashed daily causing them to take the form 4 applications down. As of the date im posting there is currently no online filing.

[@TaCOlsen1]

Really cool video. HAHA Love it.

[@jrbechthold]

awesome!

[@ShooterSD72]

lol Best video EVER!

[@loganwood9978]

Slow clap. Well done gentleman.

[@RJM1011]

Here in the U.K. I can just go and buy one when I want to. :)

[@MattHarris89]

Richard Maunder I'm sure, since you guys can't even have the firearms they attach to...

[@RJM1011]

Well we still have some but not all and my USGS is banned in the U.S. but OK in the U.K. !

[@s14duma]

Best commercial ever! molon labe

[@danielporter4194]

Love this!

[@sksman71]

How about a two liter soda bottle with 1" PVC and fill up the rest with that expanding foam?

[@itsarebuildingyear6674]

Sounds like a good way to go to federal prison.

[@sksman71]

i dont have any need for a silencer.It is interesting though

[@visvires6305]

That's not even a suppressor. That's a failed barrel extension with a lot of wrapping.

[@baffled4life]

Nailed it! all this is missing is a plug for rapture city!

[@YusefYandron]

omfg this sucks having to do all that

[@ThePleza]

Well isn't this easy!

[@TheHiddenPart]

Sick trigger finger discipline for being the 50's...

[@infantrymarine5903]

Fucking awesome

[@ayim01]

Too e-filing is horrible right now!

[@reddog418]

1:50. No you can't. Thanks for playing though. You actually need another Class 3 SOT holder to conduct this transaction. Unless of course you are the SOT holder.

[@tango1zero22]

Love it.

[@stephenpope8185]

Lol best video ever.

[@BluBird37]

Fucking hilarious! Awesome vid!

[@gregdepot]

Arnt trust $400?

[@Zaugger]

lol @ the mono labe reference

[@warholatyler]

I want my gun slightly less concussive, better give them my fingerprints..... Because that has any correlation at all....

[@mrfreezee22]

the info. is correct..''.NOT THE VIDEO''...how in the 1950 they knew about the new electronic form..and silencerCo was form in 2002...this video is a funny way of showing the silencer story...but was not shoot in the 50:s..is was shoot (without a silencer) in 2014.

[@Savage264243]

Goddamn foreigners

[@jimmyprattfdof]

in america we call this funny jokes

[@clayton9697]

They used a time machine Freddy. That's how they knew about the new electronic form. = mind blown

[@mrfreezee22]

Clay Ton really...i honest did not know that time machine was possible,thanks for the info.,I must look into this.

[@clayton9697]

have a good one my friend

[@elpiquesNM]

that communist part reminds me of Obama.

[@bradleymorgan8223]

Great video, but the process is a massive pain in the dick

[@poke12gauge32]

Sure only a 200 dollar tax stamp but 400 to 1000 bucks for just 1 kinda criminal imo for what it is

[@MVrockersPS3]

If a gun was anything else a suppressor would be required as a safety device.

[@TheHorta]

The way things are going, pretty soon I'll need to get government approval and a tax stamp to kiss my wife. Land of the free, my ass.

[@generaldyablo4791]

[@neoc03]

All the information in it is 100% correct.

[@RandalllFlagg]

"Not real?!" How so? Everything in this video is completely accurate. Where is your source for this video being, "Nor real?"

[@PaperPlanesLife]

Randall Flagg It's "not real" because it's a _modern_ short film put together using vintage footage.

[@chasingspeed.1770]

You my friend are a idiot

[@neptunusmaris]
