    If it can be made to function as a firearm sound suppressor (and that one will), then it's a firearm sound suppressor, and subject to the NFA in the USA. That the thread is not a standard firearm barrel thread doesn't matter.

    Hell, ATF has declared some airsoft receivers to be machineguns because they could be adapted to work with an AR-15 upper assembly and discharge a shot, though that's certainly not what they're designed, intended to be, or generally used for.

    If they would just legalize them then the guy in the bad neighborhood could get some sleep at night.
