Suppressor?

Thinking about buying a suppressor in the next year. What are you using and pros and cons? Planning on using it on a 6.5 creedmore, 300 Blk, and a 223 AR.
 
Running a few different ones. My three favorites are my TBAC Ultra 5, Silencer Central Banish 30, and SilencerCo Harvester Evo

It really comes down to budget in the long run
 
Omega 300 is a really popular option.

Silencer Central has some great BOGO's going on right now on their website

 
I do like the quick detach muzzle devices. Of course my rifles all have different thread sizes. I plan on getting a 30 cal just so it will work on everything I have.

That's what I like about the Yankee T3, it's quick detach with a decent looking muzzle brake left after it's removed. There's also a choice of a flash suppressor base instead of the muzzle brake. It has a nice spring loaded clicking retainer pin to facilitate easy on/off with a two turn twist. 20241220_125636.jpg

I have a 30 caliber suppressor on a 6.5 Creedmore. I went with an 18" barrel model, so the gun was nice and compact with the suppressor. A suppressor will add length, so be aware how your guns will handle with it.

I'd recommend something that's finished with cerakote. Mine is anodized aluminum and it has some light scratches from use. I added a cover to it this season.

I took a doe with the combo this year. The deer in near vicinity weren't particularly alarmed by the shot. They barely moved.

I do have a muzzle device on the 6.5 this is for 6.5 caliber. It came with a 30 cal device, but I swapped it last year so I could use the 30 cal on something else one day. Both shot to the same POI.

Ended up with a Banish Backcountry. 5.5 inches long and pretty light. Works pretty well on the 6.5 with a 24" barrel. Working on getting the old '06 shortened up to 20" and threaded.

Silencer Central was as easy to work with as advertised. Little over a month from start to delivery at the front door.

New federal legislation has significantly altered suppressor laws. Effective January 1, 2026, the $200 tax stamp on suppressors will be eliminated, removing a major financial barrier to ownership, and suppressors will be removed from the National Firearms Act (NFA). While the NFA still governs suppressors, the removal of the tax and the inclusion of suppressors in the "One Big Beautiful Bill" means they will be treated more like standard firearm accessories.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:
  • Tax Stamp Removal:
    The $200 tax stamp, previously required for suppressor transfers, is eliminated.

  • NFA Removal (in progress):
    While suppressors are no longer under the NFA, they are still subject to certain NFA regulations like enhanced background checks, fingerprinting, and registration.

    • "One Big Beautiful Bill":
      This budget reconciliation bill, passed by the House and signed into law, included provisions to remove suppressors from the NFA.
    • "SHUSH Act":
      This act, introduced by Congressman Cloud and Senator Lee, aims to further simplify suppressor rules by removing them from NFA and Gun Control Act (GCA) regulations, preventing state-level taxes and registration requirements, and allowing law enforcement to carry concealed suppressors.
    • State Restrictions:
      It's important to note that state laws vary, and some states still prohibit suppressor ownership.
    • Potential for State Bans:
      Due to the federal changes, some states may attempt to ban suppressors, and it's recommended to be aware of your state's laws.
    • Timing:
      While the tax is removed as of January 1, 2026, current or prospective owners can still purchase suppressors before the end of 2025 and have them held by an FFL until the tax is eliminated.
