Rifle Suppressor Question

Rick in Oregon

Gold $$ Contributor
After a few years of seeing more and more suppressor use on rifles, specifically varmint rifles, I've got a question for those who've taken the plunge and have some experience on this subject.

What is the usual total cost of the suppressor, barrel threading/muzzle cap, smith charges, tax stamp and all the hoopla associated with a rifle suppressor once done? I know the suppressor price varies, just looking for an average here.

I hear the wait time for the tax stamp is now very short, but how short?

Thanks for anyone taking the time to answer. I've been around rifles a very long time and have resisted the urge, now wondering if it's all worth the cost, time and effort. School me please. :)
 
Silencer Central will thread your muzzle for $125, there is no tax stamp anymore no more $200 fee then the price of whatever suppressor you want plus mounting system, hub mount for direct thread or muzzle device.
The last can I got took 2 days to clear
 
Thread is within $25 of $150 anywhere you go.

Tax stamps are $0

Any of the good titanium cans are going to average $900.

I’ve been using Diligent Defense. They have a good selection. I’d focus on the Wolfhunter, which is a 6” .243 caliber suppressor or the Enticer LTI, which is an 8” .308 suppressor.

This is a group of 5 from my LTI day before yesterday. I just wanted to sight it in for the upcoming coyote hunts. That’s a $775 suppressor.
 
Rick, as stated above the $200 tax is now $0.00. My first suppressor I bought last August was for a pistol that was factory threaded, it is also adaptable to several others that have different thread pitch just by swapping out the piston. Currently in the process for a rifle suppressor. I will have about $1000. in it with tax and then 3 or 4 suppressor mounting devices (ASR) to fit several rifles ($50.00 to 80.00) for each rifle. Probably will end up with about $1200 to $1400 invested with this suppressor to include different end caps and suppressor cover. The advantage for this suppressor is it is a hybrid (modular)(SilencerCo 46M) I can use it on multiple calibers 5.56 to 46 and it is magnum & full auto rated.
I would go through your local dealer and price compare with Silencer Shop, they are super easy to work with and everything can be done online. If your dealer has their kiosk in store even better.

Just my .02
