The SilencerCo Maxim 50 is a .50 caliber muzzle-loading rifle with an integrated sound suppressor, which is a Traditions Vortek Strikerfire with a SilencerCo suppressor welded onto the end of a shortened barrel. As a muzzleloader, the rifle is not considered a firearm under the Gun Control Act of 1968; [2] and the integrated suppressor is exempt from the US National Firearms Act because it is permanently attached to the rifle. [3] When fired, the rifle has a report of 139.9 decibels. [1]
The firearm does not have iron sights, so requires a telescopic sight. [1] The recoil is reported to be less than for a non-suppressed .50 caliber in-line rifle.
