We wanted to share ongoing research by silencer manufacturer Gemtech concerning your right to hunt with a silencer, or if you prefer, a firearm sound suppressor.
Many of Arsenal Attorneys’ clients request our Arsenal Gun Trust so they may own NFA-regulated silencers to use while hunting. The most common reason given is their concern for neighbors who are unaccustomed to a rifle shot during deer season.
According to the Gemtech study, the states permitting hunting with a silencer include: Colorado, Maryland, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and West Virginia. It is not permitted to use a silencer while hunting in Georgia and North Carolina among others.
