You are in Finland, correct? IIRC, suppressors are not an issue for you, they are just another shooting accessory. In the US, they are as regulated -- under the same statute and regulations -- as full-auto weapons. Our law givers are so idiotic that they believe the movies and that "silencers  ::) ) are magical evil devices and need the benevolent government to regulate.

I have to pay a $200 "transfer tax" on top of the cost to own one. PITA.

BTW, because you are allowed to do your own maintenance on your suppressor, an old-school "wipe" based suppressor is fine. You can even make your own wipes out of felt. In the US, cutting a circle of felt out while in possession of a wipe-based suppressor is a 10 year felony. Such is the idiocy of our government.

Do send a pic of the gun and I will tell you what to look for with wear and tear and help you decide whether or not the actual pistol is worth it.
