I'm well aware of the legal concerns with these, and know that anyone putting one together without a stamped Form 1 is just asking for trouble, in a pretty big way. No question there.
Having said that....has anyone built one, and are they worth a darn..??
Rainier Arms just sent out an ad for what amounts to a suppressor "kit"...looks reasonable, but ends up costing pretty much what a "real" suppressor does. There are some kits on the net (won't link them) that look pretty solid, but they appear to be made from aluminum, rather than some fancy unobtainum material for the baffles. I'm sure it affects the lifetime, but what I don't know is for the occasional trip to the range, are they a reasonable answer..??
What got me interested is I have a buddy that's asking about them (with a stamped Form 1) and the current reasonable turn around on a Form 1's has him interested. I waited a year for most of my cans, he's hoping for something much quicker.
Any experience with any of these...??
Thanks - B.B.S.
