Suppressor ownership is on the horizon and hopefully coming to your home soon—without waiting months or paying for costly tax stamps. Talking with suppressor manufacturers, few believe we will see the legislation in the first 100 days of Donald Trump’s presidency, but all are confident that it will come.

That begs the question, where will the market go if suppressors are commonly available? How will technology be affected? Most importantly, which one would you buy—first? It is the last question that SilencerCo is most concerned with. After almost a decade of development—because they believed there was no point bringing a product to market until it had been perfected—SilencerCo has timed perfectly timed the release of the new MAXIM 9.
For now, we will all have to keep our fingers crossed. However, in the meantime, here is a video and a few facts from SilencerCo to salivate and dream over.
Nine years of dreaming.
Ten thousand hours of trial and error.
Numerous failures that served as valuable learning experiences.
One holster-able, integrally suppressed 9mm pistol that is hearing safe with all types of ammunition: the Maxim 9.
The time has come, the kinks are worked out, the details are dialed, and now the world will experience true innovation.
In honor of the official production launch of the Maxim 9, take a look behind the curtain for a glimpse into the journey to create the most disruptive product to hit the firearms industry in decades.
Maxim 9s will begin showing up around the country as early as April 2017. Standby, revolution is on the way.

So what’s the point? It’s still an NFA item. Would you rather shoot a pistol of your choice for 6 months while waiting for a silencer or wait 6 months for a silenced pistol that may or may not suck?
On the topic of tax-free suppressors, a petition was started 3 days ago requesting the White House work to repeal the National Firearms Act (NFA). Could be worth the time to sign it… https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/repeal-nfa
What’s that!!?? Eh???
All kidding aside, I would be very interested in one of these.
That’s one ugly pistol!
WHAT?!
Technology is a dynamic approach to problem solving, and in this case, the problem is one that has been around for as long as firearms have been around. A firearm with an integral suppressor seems to be the wave of the the future, and I can only guess that with further development, what SinlencerCo has brought forth will only be the beginning of something that I wish had been around a long time ago…..before my hearing was adversely affected.
