12 gauge Shotgun suppressor ideas.

Yes, it can be legal to make a silencer. For everything Form-1, from silencer designs that are easily made, to filing forms with the BATF, to 3D modeling. Remember, you must have an approved BATF Form-1 to make a silencer. All NFA laws apply.

Namely:
1) Is it better to do an integral or a screw-on suppressor?
2) How long should the barrel be, at minimum, before the suppressor?
3) What kind of baffles are most suitable?
4) Does the suppressor require a ported barrel extension to run its full length, because of pellet dispersion?
5) Can anyone provide pictures or schematics of previous designs?

Thank you very much,
LavaRed
Personally I would slot the barrel instead of punching holes on it,
Would make deburring no fun but would be quicker

Good thing you snuck your comment in when you did. The thread is only 12 years old so maybe you caught OP before they finished their build :roll:

I'll drop LavaRed a call, I don't think it was ever built.

ps: slotting a barrel will create four fracture point per slot.....Hi...T.....

T this winter @#$% and that's me being nice about it.
Any interest in doing some artwork so we can update this old thread. I have a few ideas that I'll cut loose.

Tell me about it. My tractor's engine went, while plowing. I had to stoop to using the snow blower.

I'm in!
