As far as I know, you cannot hunt any Big Game species in North America whilst using a suppressor, and I know different states have restrictions on Varmint hunting as well, You can shoot ground squirrels all day but not a Coyote! I could be WAY out of the loop here! I would sure like to be able to use a suppressor on any firearm I wish with out any Gov restrictions, taxes, permits, or any thing else, and I would sure love to be able to hunt while using one too!
ODFW's legal team says thumbs up! "If you legally own the silencer, you can legally hunt with it." Their words.I got into an argument with OSP about this very same thing a few years ago. The paperwork states "for all lawful purposes". The Oregon synopsis has NOTHING about cans, and hunting IS A lawful purpose under the definition (assuming your following other hunting regs) there for legal. Show me where, on a state level, it says I cant....been in this very same argument numerous times with veteran hunters also. It's legal... (At least a couple/few years ago)

That's not a left hand 300 blackout is it? I have friend looking for one...I used a Dead air sandman on a ruger 300blk for hunt this year also use it on a .308 win and a 6.8 spc.

I got a decent buck in the backyard this year with a 220g subsonic 300 blackout and an Omega. It was like using a 45 that sounded like a big pellet gun and definitely legal in OR.
True ... But it can also help the other hunters out there if your gun is "Very very quiet hea , hea hea"What's the point? The animals aren't going to hear the shot that kills them...... Unless yer not a great shot & miss a few times.....
