Brandon Maddox from Silencer Central is back on the show with me again today to talk about the new Banish Backcountry, the Banish 46, a couple of their other suppressors, and how to legally travel to a different country with a suppressor. We also discuss a recent dust-up with the ATF regarding possession of suppressors and how that was resolved.
Shoot me an email at john@thebiggamehuntingblog.com if you'd like me to forward Brandon's email with the details he received from the ATF on how to legally bring a suppressor outside the USA.
