SilencerCo Releasing Blue Label Program at Shot Show

[SteyrAUG]

Because it worked so well for Glock.

Now everyone who knows a cop or a fireman will expect to buy at "Blue Label" prices and dealers won't be able to sell the standard model for more than $10 above cost.

I think it might be different that a firearm being bought blue label. With a gun, an LE or Mil person can buy it at the discount, and turn around and either sell it or give it to a friend who will pay them back. In most states (at least here in Utah) it's no big deal to trade or sell guns to another resident of the same state. NFA items are not going to be like that. Even if you want to buy for someone else, you will probably have to buy it and put it in your name ($200 stamp), then if you want to transfer it to your friend looking for a deal, it's more waiting and another 200 bucks to the ATF. Probably not worth the hassle or extra tax money. That could be wrong though.

Here's some links to a few clubs you can join to get the discounted pricing.

Once the Form 3 clears LE buyer can simply 'change his mind' & knows a guy who will pay the same & do paperwork. At that point it's up to the dealer to decide to let them have it for the same price or sit in it in inventory trying to make more money on an item they could just as easy turn over for the minimum profit they had planned to. Same to them no matter who shows up w/money to do paperwork.

The Glock program is widely abused & this will be too.

I am an AAC guy but I may have to look into this more. I am in the market for a .22 and a pistol can. Thank you SilencerCo.


It will be a bit different since their is the NFA. Not as easy for a person to buy it and "sell" it to a friend. Too many hoops to make it worth while.

This is excellent news for individuals eligible, so long as they don't jack up the prices for the rest of us regulars...

Happy that the men and women of the law enforcement community getting a break! They haven't got much recently.

Me too. I should not have made such a selfish comment. I am happy for them too.

LOL. Don't think those clubs want someone as old and banged up as me. I was not being serious by the way.

I have received many Pm’s about people who are either concerned, hurt or feel that they have been left out. I am attaching a reply to a gentlemen’s PM I received that I felt I should explain a little more. Reply to PM in in RED. Name is left out of the person who PM me and I have added a few other things to speak to some other concerns. So here it is. Thanks…..

XXXXXXXX,

First off let me say thank you for your service. Secondly I do not work for SilencerCo nor do I speak for them. This info leaked was just something that I found extraordinary, as this will be the first in the silencer community. DOD and others (Disabled and Veterans) will not and are not forgotten. We give thanks and appreciation to all!!!! This was an attempt to share info as a generalization. What you do for my family and country goes further then you will ever know so I say thank you. If I may, I would like to share some key points that most may have not looked at mostly because the info that was shared was just the beginning and all will be clear when released at Shot Show. With that said, may I ask a few questions?

Do you prefer not to buy Glock, Smith-Wesson, Ruger, FNH, Sig Sauer, Taurus, Beretta etc…. ? All these manufactures have an LE/Military program. Great programs at that, but all have criteria. Some better then others, but not all the same. I understand that people who do not always meet the criteria of the manufacture still receive discounts on these products, but the discounts aren’t coming from the manufactures unless you fall under there criteria. The people who don’t fall under the criteria are given discounts by the dealers who are thankful and appreciate what individuals do for our country. SilencerCo is trying to bring the BEST!!!!

Did you know that not one single Silencer Manufacture offers a LE/Military discount program? Yes, you may be able to call up and receive 10% off or better, but still have to meet criteria. The reality is most dealers are already giving you this discount because the appreciation they have for all MEN/Women and what you all do and have done for our country. Dealers are selling their products for minimum over their price, not because they have to, but because they want to show appreciation.

I guess what I'm trying to say is SilencerCo is very much appreciative to all Men/Women who proudly serve and have served our country. They are proud and thankful for everyone who has served whether it was short term or long term. This is why they are starting a program that not one Silencer manufacture had dreamed about. This is not to alienate or discriminate against anyone or show that one group is better then the next. This is to help the men and women who serve and have served our great nation. Goes to say that most if not all manufactures feel proud and blessed to have you buy there products and Love each and everyone of you. SilencerCo just took it a step further in the silencer community.

In regards to you wanting SilencerCo products and now you feel like you were discriminated against and want to look else where. First and fore most you were thinking of purchasing these products (I Presume) because of the great quality and performance, reliability, innovation , excellent customer support and price point. This has not change in what the product is. SilencerCo makes phenomenal products.

Either way you lean I wish you the best in all your endeavors and glad to see that you are at least thinking of buying a silencer any silencer. They are awesome in everyway and a great way to save your ears and make shooting more enjoyable. God Bless and Thank you once again for everything you do for our great nation.

With all that said Silencerco or any other manufacture is not out to discriminate or leave anyone out. There are great dealers out there who take care of both LE/Military and commercial. Hope this clears some stuff up, but most will be cleared come Shot Show.
