Yes you can. You have file the proper ATF forms and get your background checked, pay all the fees and taxes etc. You can also buy and own a machine if the local law allows it.

I don't know what your state law is, but in Texas, yes, you can own a silencer. You're required to pay a 200 dollar Federal "Any Other Weapon" fee, it'll be registered with the Federal Government, and you can't sell it without going through a dealer. The State doesn't bar you from owning it, but you're not allowed to drive down the road with it attached to your pistol. Owning it in your home or shooting with it at the range is allowed. Just check your local laws before you go out and buy it. The 200 dollar fee though is standard anywhere in the US since its a Federal Tax. Your state might charge a fee for it as well. Texas doesn't.

Manevict is honestly appropriate. A suppressed firearm is a strategies from silent and suppressors may be legally won in many states. so a strategies as why, nicely i understand that various prairie canines shooters in South Dakota are making use of them in areas the place making use of a rimfire is problematic and reducing the noise makes taking the complicated rodents much less demanding. that's in hassle-free terms a case in point. And as a life long shooter i will inform you which you once you doing any severe quantity capturing, reducing noise alongside with listening to risk-free practices is often a plus and saves your listening to. in case you merely like the sound, i'm particular you will hit upon a wave report on the cyber web which you would be able to play on your heart's content textile. i'm assuming the Hollywood version of the sound is what you think of is so cool besides and you'd be disillusioned interior the real ingredient. Hollywood additionally does stupid issues like putting a suppressor in a revolver. there's a niche between the cylinder and the barrel which will nevertheless make all styles of noise in case you have been to try this form of ingredient. quite silences weapons do exist in spite of the undeniable fact that. so a strategies as i'm conscious all of them use subsonic ammo and are closed breach, great cumbersome units. nevertheless i visit confess the hot "cans" as suppressors are many times stated are plenty greater valuable than the older technologies. They nevertheless are a cry from silent.

Richard J has it right on the money.
If you have a record free of felony convictions is all I can add to his answer. If not, then you're asking for a heap of trouble. The ATF will find you and bury you beneath the jail.
Walk softly and carry a big stick.

Your first answer is right, I think.
I believe it is also illegal to have such a silencer in your possession without good and valid reason, whether you own it or not and irrespective of whether you have a firearm in your possession or not.
