Or lower my pricesWell I challenge you to try. Then when another company beats you or brings out a new material or tech you'll have to start from square one.

$1000 cans are titanium, inconel, and/or stelliteIf they wernt regulated and after the initial cost of increased manufacturing the price on many cans would go down. There would be some new stuff that would demand a premium but from a pure manufacturing standpoint (not including R&D and overhead) can should be significantly cheaper to produce. A SS can doesnt cost 1000 to make. IF they are deregulated and manufacturing catches up to demand there should be a significant drop in price.
Suppressor buyers want the newest tech, because it's a lifetime investment the cheaper cans with older tech often don't sell. AAC liquidated its left over cans before their move to Alabama at stupid low prices and it had to be crazy low to actually move them.Or lower my prices
thank you for pointing that out. I probably wont ever get a can so I dont really keep up with them.$1000 cans are titanium, inconel, and/or stellite
All SS rifle cans are usually your cheaper brands like Lane or Thompson machine.
Also this thread deserves full on FUDD alert now.
they do now because that is how the system works because of the $200 per can tax. If they were not regulated I think it would be different. Some people might but one $1000 suppressor but some might prefer 10 $100 suppressors. Kind of like buying a knife..Suppressor buyers want the newest tech, because it's a lifetime investment the cheaper cans with older tech often don't sell.

Go to England or Sweden and see what their cheap cans look like. They usually suck and are made from much cheaper materials. Use them for one or two seasons and then dump it.they do now because that is how the system works because of the $200 per can tax. If they were not regulated I think it would be different.

But that's not really the point I was trying to make. Barring all the regulations, if someone wanted to make a great (not the latest and greatest) silencer for very cheap it wouldn't be that difficult or expensive provided there is enough demand.
Hats a great can. I'm planning on getting one after the suppressor Panic does down.By the way I'm a huge sucker for the latest and greatest technology and I would be the guy with the 1 $1000 can most likely. I just bought a rugged obsidian which i can't wait to get my hands on.
Yea well I can drink more beer than youI'm at my computer now. Barring all regulations, I can build a house cheaper than anybody. Fuck contractors, electricians, plumbers, and their crafts. I can do it cheaper than them because I have a hammer and pliers. A house is a house is a house. Is that the point you're trying to make? If so, you can go away knowing you made your point.
Exactly what cans do you own that you think there's been little change from the original Maxim silencer?
What do you do for a living? I bet I can do it cheaper than you get paid.
And airplanes still have two wings. Cars have 4 wheels. Motorcycles have 2 wheels.Well over 100 years ago they looked like this.

Hahaha. I build houses. I'm sure you could do it cheaper... You don't have to make it personal. Just having a fun discussion. I'm sure you are still selling plenty of silencers right now and I hope you continue toI'm at my computer now. Barring all regulations, I can build a house cheaper than anybody.

I'm curious what you think would happen if regulations disappeared.And airplanes still have two wings. Cars have 4 wheels. Motorcycles have 2 wheels.
Agreed; Sorry, but I find it very hard to believe that even the most technologically advanced can made of unobtanium should cost more than $450 on a good day ... during a panic .... on the moonDeep breaths, no one is knocking your products. We know that you are skilled in your trade and are trying to make a living like everyone else. All we are saying is that if cans were deregulated, prices would go down. Just like any other market, from commodities to booze during the 20's.
How am I making this personal? You started this argument with me. My point is deregulation itself will not drop the prices of silencers AT FIRST. And it won't, even if outsourced to China. It will take some time before prices drop SIGNIFICANTLY. Those are key words in CAPS I used in my previous posts. Machines, their maintenance, labor, and raw materials will still cost the manf the same.Hahaha. I build houses. I'm sure you could do it cheaper... You don't have to make it personal.
