Silent But Deadly

Despite what the Brady bunch might say, silencers serve some very civilized functions and contribute to a saner, quieter way of life, which is why a lot of folks like them. After reading The Hayduke Silencer Book, many readers shared their own ideas for simple designs you can build at home. Here is the cream of the crop. 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/.
