Is there a decibal rating that defines a silencer ???
I have a local machinist that could build me compensators that could scrub "some" sound from my rifles...
I'm not looking for total silence... but I'd like to tame some of my hunting rifles to a level that could prevent hearing loss from shooting them without hearing protection... some of the handguns would be cool as well,but my question stems around the hunting rifles... I also realize I won't get rid of any super sonic "crack" just looking to scub enough noise off to save the ears...
is there a definable decibal reduction in the rules ???
if one went & got the tax stamp, can you get as many siliencers as you want / could afford, or are there limits ???
there are probably rules saying you can't hunt with a silencer ( concern about poaching... spelling ) ??? but if one could quiet up the gun enough to save the ears, yet still be allowed to hunt with the weapon, I'd outfit all my hunting rifles, & probably a couple target rifles as well...
thanks...
