Actually, on the website it says if you need to replace the filter you need to send the whole thing in.

And lest you think that you can just use another filter or just stamp the number on your own filter and replace it yourself, there's also some sort of obnoxious ATF form that has to be filled out each time.

*ETA: Actually it's $25 - MFG's web site

The one thing that I find odd is that they sell the "solvent trap adapter" which basically allows you to attach an oil filter to the muzzle of your gun for the purpose of catching solvent while cleaning (but does not cover the holes in the back side of the filter thus preventing it from quieting the gun) AND they sell a washer to cover the holes to prevent the solvent from "splashing back out of the filter". So for $45 you could have basically the suppressor adapter without paying the $200 stamp but you better never use it as a suppressor *nudge*nudge*wink*wink*
