Form 1 Solvent Traps

[GC Josh]

Anyone here form 1'd a solvent trap? Any advice on where to buy? There are plenty of websites that advertise.. just curious if anyone has any personal experience on which ones are best.

I have a Form 4's in ATF purgatory at the moment. Considering a form 1 in the mean time since the wait times are incredibly low.

Quite bore is what most people I've talked with has said

In for answers. Those "solvent trap" things look like very affordable 99% complete silencer kits.
My next suppressor will probably be for .30 rifles (and I'll also use it on an AR in .223).
Would a "solvent trap kit" silencer hold up to the pressures and heat involved in shooting a 7.62 NATO (full length barrels, not SBR, and only slow-fire anticipated). No mag dumps.

A whole range of options are available from Amazon for "patch traps, filter traps, solvent traps." They're usually adapters that fit many popular barrel threads and adapt to oil filters, bottles, etc. They have a variety of different filters, adapters, contraptions, etc. But there's a reason why their language describing them is like it is. Just don't get caught using one on a weapon would be my advice.

Um, Gaffer, these posters are talking about properly registering a do-it-yourself silencer that is "manufactured" by you, legally registered with BATF and taxed, using an ATF Form 1.

I've seen them, and I don't think I'd waste the time and 200 stamp on an aluminum snake oil can....But in for info...

I missed the first poster's intent. Just seems like an expensive way to do it. If he is going to "build" one, then the adapter and in-line filter is probably the most popular

Lots of commercially made 22lr cans are nothing more than "an aluminum snake oil can." I have one and would rather manufacture another than buy one.

Agreed, but put one of those on a high pressure rifle or pistol, and things could go bad in a flash....

SS and titanium tubes are available for serious builds.
