[QUOTE="FrogFire7, post: 2460095, member: 101482"] Yeah. They don't ask anything about materials at all in the application. You just list length and caliber, basically. I told my wife I could make one out of a styrofoam cup if I wanted, they'd never know. Basically I think they're interpreting it show to mean you can not manufacture without an SOT license, but that's just a guess based on what I've been reading. I think based on the language in the letter, it means that if you have literally anything that could be made into a suppressor and you intend to make one, you are basically committing a felony. If you want to run it out, that could include basically any pipe, or even bar stock, etc. I think it comes back to "intent"... Pretty slippery slope, in my opinion. Conversely, you'd think that submitting a ton of personal information, filing a form 1, paying a $200 tax, and getting fingerprinted and mailing the ATF your prints would show "intent" that you plan to obey they law... But it seems like they are saying that we are criminals for even considering plans to build a suppressor (even though it's historically been legal through this process). [/QUOTE]
