I have scheduled a class on silencer building Saturday November 19, 2011 from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm at the Kitsap Rifle and Revolver Club.
Cost is $20. There is an additional $15 fee for each person to use the range if they are not a KRRC member. The classroom can accommodate up to 20 students, but I prefer to have no more than ten as a large group can have a hard time seeing lathe operation when crowded around it.
The class will cover the following topics;
Applying for a tax stamp.
Avoiding legal trouble when possessing or using a silencer.
Basic silencer design.
How to make parts.
Repairs.
I will bring a few suppressed firearms to the range to use after the class.
The class earlier this year in September lasted about 5 hours. It gets dark before 6pm in December, but the rifle line has lights and we can shoot until 10pm.
There are few caveats to mention. The KRRC is being sued by Kitsap County. I feel that we will prevail, but there is a chance that shooting hours could be curtailed and other restrictions might be imposed if we lose, or the club may be shut down all together.
I will cover the basics on making silencer parts on a lathe and filling out the tax stamp application. I welcome any experienced machine tool operators that may have something useful to contribute to the class. Of the $20 per student that I charge, the KRRC gets half for letting me use their classroom. I am not making much money from this class. You can pay in advance via PayPal (send as a gift) or at the class in cash.
