5 out of 5 stars Excellent Improvised Designs   May 6, 2002
 40 out of 42 found this review helpful

This book is full of clear, simple but concise instructions on making working cans that McGuyver would be proud to put his name to.
It's the first time I've seen someone address the issue of securely attaching cans to various calibre firearms without having to cut a thread onto the end of the barrel. Plans cover .22 Ruger, 1911 style .45 (longer barrel required) & an SKS (7.62mm) power plinker , the information given should let anyone who knows their basic ballistics to apply the concepts given to all other calibres. All the parts required are clearly listed with lots of clear photographs of the parts, apart & assembled.
Parts are easily available at hardware stores &/or plumbing suppliers except for the "clog buster" no sign of it here in Oz (mail order a few from the US ,nothing illegal about them, bar applying the knowledge) No machining required in this book ,only simple hand tools & a battery/power drill are needed. Any good electrician ,plumber ,mechanic or similar handyperson should be able to make a lot of the designs from stock they already have.
Short but comprehensive section on why guns are so noisy & how to best shut them up ,an excellent book for beginners who want to visit a government re-education center for 5 years or quality info to fill in the gaps on the practicle side of things for people who have been studying the art of muzzle blast suppression for a while.
This book would let you easily figure out how to silence that 9mm SMG you built from PA Luty's , Expedient Homemade Firearms ;)
This book also stands head & shoulders above the drivel in "Silent but Deadly" by Hayduke.
I liked Workbench Silencers so much I bought the followup book More Workbench Silencers , review to follow......

See section 89/14.4 in the US patent office or try No.s 3776093 , 3367055 for some other designs & theory.
