Sound Suppressors and Silencers ALL NFA (National Firearms Act 1934) RULES APPLY!!!
To the best of our knowledge, silencers are legal for private ownership in the following states: AL, AR, AK, AZ, CO, CT, FL, GA, ID, IN, KY, LA, ME, MD, MS, MT, NE, NV, NH, NM, NC, ND, OH, OK, OR, PA, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA, WV, WI, and WY. Additionally, they maybe owned by Class 3 dealers and Class 2 manufacturers (but not individuals) in: CA, IA, KS, MA, MO, and MI. Territorial law prohibits possession in the Territories and Possessions of the United States. There are no known restrictions on governmental ownership. If your state is not listed, check with your local office of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, & Firearms or your state's Attorney General. If they are not legal in your state of residence, we cannot sell to you. Please do not ask us to violate state or federal law.

This was going to be my recommendation as well. Using a Can, might be your best option. Just find out if it's legal to hunt with as well as possess in your state. Some states have different laws regarding the use of these for range vs. hunting.

A decent one would not be that expensive. You don't need the Ranger Recon Seal Delta model. Just one that will reduce the noise enough to allow you to hunt/shoot.

IF you're only allowed to do range work with one, maybe that's enough. When hunting, how many shots do you take? It's up to you whether that one shot is tolorable.

Hope you figure it out.
