They don't

If I am recalling correctly, it's subject to a decibel level test to see if it reduces sound, no?

Been seeing a few like this on well respected sites (similar)

That's how it works

 

[ShawnZR-1]

Is there a specific decibel level that it has to reduce the report in order to be classified as a suppressor? I've heard a shrouded muzzle brake reduce the heard report at the shooter's position, but loud as hell at the barrel. Just curious what the criteria is.

Baffles don't seal in the tube, but I'm sure there is some idiot out there who's going to try to modify this into a suppressor. For that reason alone, I wouldn't own one.

 

[palmettomoon]

I doubt it really matters if the seal is perfect. There is no way that device does NOT reduce the report of a 7.62x39mm round.

Generally blast diverters are open ended.

I can find Toyota Hilux for sale on the internet, I just know I cannot have it here even If they would ship it.

Same with the Rusweapons site. It might be an option for non-regulated parts though for someone's next AK build.

In all seriousness, I'd not give it another thought. You would do well to not have anything like that in your house.

Yes....

The ATF only has to prove possession-not intent.
