Silencers

Silencers (aka Suppressors)

No matter whether you’re using an AR style carbine or a high-powered hunting rifle, Triple 7 Ordnance has what you need. Along with our in-stock inventory, we have partnered with Silencer Shop to provide access to the entire spectrum of silencers on the market.

01

Purchase from In-Stock Inventory

we carry a wide range of options for fast processing

Transfers of silencers occur via the ATF Form 4. Triple 7 Ordnance uses the electronic forms (eForms) system to help expedite your transfer submission and (hopefully) your approval.

The process for obtaining your own silencer is pretty straight-forward. A current ID, a passport photo and fingerprints are all that is needed to get started. Triple 7 Ordnance can help with the last two with our systems, including an approved fingerprint scanner to generate an electronic fingerprint file, known as an “.eft”.

This process can be accomplished at the Triple 7 Ordnance location or you can go to your nearest Local Gun Shop that is equipped with a Silencer Shop kiosk to take care of it. The form can be reviewed and processed remotely so you can cut down travel time. Contact us if you have questions or need clarification.

F.A.Q.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is It Legal to Own a Silencer?

Under federal law, it has never been illegal to own a silencer. If it is legal for you to buy a handgun, and you live in a state that allows Suppressor ownership, then it is probably legal for you to own a silencer. The basic requirements are as follows:
– You must be at least 21 years old
– You must live in a state that allows ownership
– You must not have any felony convictions

  • Do I Need a Special License to Own a Silencer?

No! There are some rumors that you need to have a “Class 3” license to own a silencer, but this simply isn’t true. You do have to pay for a “tax stamp” when you first buy the suppressor – but there are no ongoing fees or licenses required. This tax is similar to paying sales tax on a purchase, except that it goes to the federal instead of the state government.

  • What Are the Benefits of Using a Suppressor?

Key benefits include hearing protection, reduced recoil, less concussion, and all around better shooting experience.

  • Do I Give Up Any Rights When I Buy a Silencer?

No.
This often comes up because of the mistaken belief that a “Class 3″ license is required to purchase a suppressor. A “Class 3″ license is a dealer license – and the ATF absolutely can show up to search a dealer’s premises, but silencer buyers don’t give up any rights at all.

  • Can I Use One Silencer for Multiple Calibers?

You can use a larger caliber suppressor to suppress a smaller caliber firearm as long as you have the appropriate adapters. Using a larger caliber silencer is not as efficient as a silencer made for the specific caliber, but it will still be a significant sound reduction in most cases.

  • How Will a Silencer Attach to My Firearm?

Once again, this depends on the firearm and the suppressor. The most popular methods include the following:
Some silencers will thread directly onto a threaded barrel.
Some silencers require a quick-detach device (like a flash hider, muzzle brake or piston).
Some silencers are built into the firearm itself, providing an integral suppressor.
