Promising a world of suppressors in every state without the hassles of National Firearms Act requirements, SilencerCo on Tuesday unveiled the Maxim 50.
Permanently attached to a modified Traditions Vortek StrikerFire muzzleloader, the Maxim 50 is considered by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives to be an antique firearm by definition, and not subject to NFA regulations, tax stamps and paperwork.
In fact, it can be shipped directly to buyers in any state.
“It took a lot of creativity to arrive at this solution,” said Josh Waldron, SilencerCo CEO and co-founder in a statement. “We have been working on this product for three years, with most of that time spent waiting on a determination from the Technology Branch of the BATFE as to how this product would be classified. As soon as we received official word that it wouldn’t be considered or regulated as a silencer, we got to work on bringing the Maxim 50 to customers across the country.”

Besides offering a solution to customers in states such as California, New York and Illinois where most non-law enforcement use of suppressors on Title I firearms is prohibited, SilencerCo says the Maxim 50
