[QUOTE="Chase723, post: 2362653, member: 21524"] If you pay for the tax stamp, and get approved, suppressors are legal to own and hunt with in something like 42 states. Check your states laws. Chances are it’s legal. Boring concentric holes in baffles can be accomplished with a jig and/or them being center marked. You can also use a lathe but it’s not completely necessary. Having a bore diameter close to the caliber diameter has a pretty minimal effect on sound reduction. Like 3 dB. Other things in the design have a much more significant effect (I.e. clipping and volume). Therefore drilling the baffle 60-100 thou over the caliber diameter for clearance to avoid a baffle strike is recommended, and doesn’t impede the performance of the can really at all. Do not use aluminum for anything other than 22lr. It can’t stand the pressure. Titanium or steel, no problem. [/QUOTE]
