Are guns required by law to be at least a certain decibel level?
Why does a gun like the Maxim 9 require a tax stamp?

Cuz the government says so. -
Because it has an integrated suppressor.Originally posted by cockedandglockedComment

A pistol with an integrated suppressor wouldn't be a standard pistol.
A suppressor is a specific mechanism, usually consisting of an arrangement of baffles surrounding the barrel bore, to reduce or eliminate he report of firing the weapon. A "standard" firearm has a cylindrical barrel with a rifled bore, and maybe some kind of flash hider or muzzle break attached to the muzzle.Originally posted by cockedandglockedComment

This... also, LSG, you cant take a glock and integrally suppress it. The slide will not allow it. Here is a video of the maxim 9 firing
As you can see, the back portion of the slide, before the barrel/suppressor, is what cycles when the round is fired. In most pistols, the entire slide moves over the barrel, where as this one doesnt. It is not possible to convert standard pistols to do this.Originally posted by Kestryll

The ruger mark 2,3,4 has a bull barrel looking suppressor - not factory- but it looks factory.... and yes tax stamp and all NFa rules applyRule 1- ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED
Rule 2 -NEVER LET THE MUZZLE COVER ANYTHING YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO DESTROY (including your hands and legs)
Rule 3 -KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET
Rule 4 -BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT IS BEYOND IT
