Are silencers legal to use in Louisiana?
Posted on 1/11/12 at 12:41 pm

I never really thought about silencers and therefor have no idea but I bought a .22 ruger and that sob is the loudest .22 I've ever heard. Was just wondering if I could legally put a silencer on it and if I can what do I have to do to go about getting one and implementing it on my rifle. Tia

So they are legal?

Yes...if you jump through a few hoops.
ETA: But they're illegal to hunt with, and if you're just plinking around without hearing protection, you dumb.

Hearing protection for a .22?

You're complaining about it being loud, are you not?
And a .22 rifle is plenty loud enough to cause hearing damage.

I'm complainig about it to being louder than regular .22's and i thought it would be sweet to put a silencer on it and pop squirrels/rabbits while deer hunting and not worry snout ruining a hunt. And if I saw u wearing ear protection while shooting a .22 I'd probably laugh at you.

That's cool, because if a DWF agent saw you carrying a silenced rifle around while hunting he'd probably take it from you, write you a really expensive ticket, and maybe arrest you.
Furthermore, I'll enjoy hearing your laughs while you're suffering from partial hearing loss.

A dealer will help you with the paper work, get your prints and you have to get a CLEO sign off. After that pay the $200 for a tax stamp and wait. There are other methods such as setting up a Trust and LLCs to avoid having to get a CLEO sign off.

Legal, yes. You must fill out a class 3 license and pay a $200-300 tax and then get the sheriff to approve of your application.
May be more to it than that but that is basically it.
And yes, wear hearing protection always.

I wear plugs when shooting my Buckmark.
Posted on 1/11/12 at 1:03 pm to Schwartz
Well of course if it's illegal I won't do it. That's why I'm asking.

I shoot 2-3 cases of shotgun shells every winter.... Never used hearing protection.
My ears ring constantly.
Pretty sure im n trouble n later life

I know for a fact that you read my comment about it being illegal BEFORE posting about hunting with one.
Are you challenged, or just stupid?

Y'all are joking about wearing protection for a .22 .........right?
Posted on 1/11/12 at 1:10 pm to Schwartz

Absolutely not joking. I've lost enough of my hearing as it is. I don't want to lose anymore.

So y'all wear plugs when just messing around with your .22 rifle outside?
I think I confused some of y'all. When I said "use" I meant hunting with my .22 rifle. Sorry for not making that clear.

My .22 pistol is loud as frick. Yea I use plugs. Only time I don't is hunting/walking in the woods. And if I suck hunted a lot I'd probably get some of the ones that let you hear low sounds but cut out loud ones
