I can hear the lathes working all across the country...

That's a cool idea in action. Too bad there's that ridiculous cost discrepancy between the $75 part and the $200 stamp you need to buy and use it. Cheaper than a regular can, though.

Though oil filters are paper filters in a ported vessel I can easily see someone catching their can on fire or at least smoking themselves out.

Dude, fire is tactical AND mil-spec. What you have there are two selling points.

Because when you were growing up at 14 or 15 and first saw a suppressor on TV or in a movie, you duck taped a plastic 2 liter soda bottle to the barrel of your .22, just to see if it really worked?

No, wait... That wasn't you, That was me. The plastic bottle made the sites useless too.

No problem. Also this appeals to my pocket as the adapters price tag las I looked was $55 + taxstamp.

ghetto suppressors, nice. Price isn't too bad, but I'm not promoting STP on my AR, and forget about sight picture on a pistol.

So you could buy the adapter pay the tax and build your own supressor on the adaptor?
All you need is a peice of alloy pipe and put some baffels in it wouldn't cost much and you would have a top rate supressor thats not a oil filter

I like your thinking. You could actually build suppressors for many different firearms and reuse the same adapter for each of them and only pay $75 for the adapter and $200 for the stamp once but potentially have a dozen suppressors or more.
