With the exception that it was built for SilencerCo, it is just a $400 gun with a suppressor for $999.
In some states it is still not allowed for hunting purposes due to the 209 ignition.
A price drop would make it more interesting.
$600 for a .50 suppressor is a great deal. Especially with no tax stamp or waiting period.
Nic will be standing in line to get one of those.
Just kidding Nic, please don't band me.
Does the suppressor come off the gun or does the front cap come off to service it?$600 for a .50 suppressor is a great deal. Especially with no tax stamp or waiting period.

Nah.
One of those would look bad on my flintlock longrifle.
Yea it would add a little length to it. You would have to stand on a ladder to load it.
Neither. Its permanently attached and put together to be legal.
It can't be neither or it wouldn't work. You can't shoot a muzzleloader through a suppressor and not have to clean it very often. Unless there using smokeless. You also have to clean a muzzleloader barrel quite regularly and that's a major problem if the can or the front cap aren't removeable. Guy behind counter at gun shop told me today the front cap comes off. If it doesn't you couldn't give me one. You couldn't hit your truck with it in 10 rounds
Maybe you can put the entire thing in a sonic cleaner? I have a bunch of cans I know how they work I just don't know how your going to push patches through that all the liquid cleaner and filth will fall into the baffles of the can and be a mess. My muzzleloader has a sharp decline in accuracy after 3 rounds. Just seems like this thing would be a nightmare to clean and use in general. I thought it was kind of cool but not anymore lol.The suppressor isn't serviceable or removeable, but you can still clean the barrel. the suppressor has a lot of volume and can collect a fair amount of carbon buildup before it becomes an issue. the barrel needs to be cleaned every few shots in order to load the gun. the suppressor is just a chamber of baffles that do not contact the round in any way. the internals of the barrel and the suppressor are most likely nitrided and corrosion resistant as well, and the carbon will wash out of the suppressor fairly easily with hot soapy water or carbon blast type product.
See below picture, where the end cap is clearly welded:
