    For a silencer to be considered a silencer it has to:
    Make the gun or attempt to make the weapon quieter.
    Be portable
    Be part of a firearm that fires fixed ammunition or be able to be attached to such a weapon.

    If the silencer is permanently attached to a muzzel loader or air rifle it's not regulated since it's part of a weapon that does not fire fixed ammunition.
    Or say some one uses a sandwich of tires roped together with plywood doughnuts in between the tires and on the ends to shoot chronograph BFG rounds with out bothering the neighbor too much.
    This tire stack silencer would not be regulated because it is not portable and does not become part of the weapon.
    Putting a plastic bottle buy it's self on the end of a 22 pistol would be regulated, it probably wouldn't have reduce the noise at all but it becomes part of the weapon and is an attempt to make it quieter.

    Just buy a god damned silencer, pay the tax and be done with it.
