Landersman was paid $1.7 million in 2012 to build 349 suppressors.
That's a heck of a big sting operation
$4800 each. Not sure if that is a rip off or not.
Holy hell. It's like giving a loaded gun to a chimpanzee...
the last thing you need is rabies. You're already angry enough as it is.OTOH, there wouldn't be a tweeker left in Georgia...
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE! AND THROW SOME STEAK ON THE GRILL!
About 4 times the going rate for a quality common caliber suppressor (i.e., 5.56, .308, 9mm, .45ACP). Might be a different story for a large cal suppressor (such as a .50BMG, dunno about those). And that's the off the shelf price for a normal person, with the costs of a maker building them for the civilian market (taxes and licensing fees). If the SEALs want a deniable suppressor I'm sure any of the MANY suppressor makers can make a sanitized version easily. Not sure why the SEALs are turning to some random dude for sterile suppressors and paying him what is probably an insane amount per unit when a known maker could make them whatever they want with the latest technology.

Putting on the tinfoil, if they wanted deniability, maybe that would be a reason to have some random mechanic make them, perhaps in a way that they actually look like they were made in someone's backyard, or cave in the hills.
Yes, but that deniability would be lost if you allowed the mechanic to be arrested and prosecuted for making them. So why would you not protect the guy from that?
Anyone else qustion the supressor prohibition for its absurdity?
If you mean the NFA, then yes. If you mean state laws, then yes. So, yes.
I agree with you, if only because it would be unenforceable anyway. Altitude, relative humidity, barrel length, and distance from the meter would all change the reading, introducing reasonable doubt that the detected level was accurate.
I was always pleasant, friendly and within arm's reach of a gun.
If government is the answer, it must have been a really, really, really stupid question.
It is my understanding that these folks were ripping off the gov... explaining the absurd prices.
