After writing his popular Workbench Silencers, inventor George Hollenback came up with a number of clever other ways to affix common items to the end of a firearm to help suppress its noisy report. More Workbench Silencer features the best of these designs, including four different types of slip-on silencers and three perforated tube designs. These silencers are devised for the popular Ruger.22 bull barrel pistol, the venerable Colt.45 semiauto handgun, the compact.380 Makarov and even the Maverick Model 88 bullpup shotgun. All can be made with ordinary materials available at any hardware store. Warning:The manufacture or possession of firearm silencers is illegal without prior licensing from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (BATF). For more information, go to www.atf.gov/.
