"Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm -- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves." – T.S. Eliot
"The right of self defence is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any colour or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction." - St. George Tucker
A careful definition of words would destroy half the agenda of the political left and scrutinizing evidence would destroy the other half. - Thomas Sowell
"To ban guns because criminals use them is to tell the innocent and law-abiding that their rights and liberties depend not on their own conduct, but on the conduct of the guilty and the lawless, and that the law will permit them to have only such rights and liberties as the lawless will allow...
For society does not control crime, ever, by forcing the law-abiding to accommodate themselves to the expected behavior of criminals. Society controls crime by forcing the criminals to accommodate themselves to the expected behavior of the law-abiding." - Jeff Snyder
Personal weapons are what raised mankind out of the mud, and the rifle is the queen of personal weapons. The possession of a good rifle, as well as the skill to use it well, truly makes a man the monarch of all he surveys. It realizes the ancient dream of the Jovian thunderbolt, and as such it is the embodiment of personal power. For this reason it exercises a curious influence over the minds of most men, and in its best examples it constitutes an object of affection unmatched by any other inanimate object.
and the ATF just confirmed, yet again, that they have no clue what they are doing and it is really the random ass guy reviewing paperwork making choices for a while department.
Seriously of everything my tax dollars went to some guy to decide this :(

I am confused... Does the "ruling" or new interpretation mean that the owner of said suppressor is not allowed to unscrew the cap of his own suppressor and install his own piece of neoprene or rubber?

Regardless of "intent" to work on your own stuff... PROVE IT!

No ruling is to prohibit DA from selling the wipes individually.

They're treating it like a baffle.

I may be showing my age, But there is a way around this. back in the late 80's wipes were standard on suppressors. I don't remember the company/but you would by a suppressor and a registered tube full of wipes, and when they were used up you would fill the tube up and do a form 5 and send back for repair and is a short time the tube would show up at your door step with new wipes. D A should be able to supply wipes, but you might have pay for a new registered tube to ship back and forth. or DA could pay for the tube, for good customer service. may be?

Sir, That is the second most confusing thing I have read on this forum to date. There is only one wipe on the Dead Air Ghost 45M. So, going by your statement, after I shoot out the one wipe on the suppressor, I should return it back to the factory to have it replaced, then mailed back to me? How long do you think that would reasonably take? I am definitely confused about what you said concerning doing a form 5 each time as well? The wipe has a round count life so potentially I would have to mail it back after each range session?
How about this instead; I go by a local SOT, per the ATF letter and have them slap a new wipe on it? Then, how much would that charge be?

have tube full of wipes say 30 wipes so you do not have go to have sot replace one at time. when you used all of them, have your sot replace then. then be on your way. and I said back in the 80's that was what they did.
