History of Firearms Suppressors December 31, 2007 Silencers, or more properly 'suppressors', were originally designed by Hiram Maxim so that people could enjoy shooting in their backyards without disturbing their neighbors. During the Great Depression there was some concern on the part of the government that suppressed firearms would be used for poaching livestock by those in need during these trying years. Suppressors were thus included in the NFA Act of 1934 and subject to registration as well as a 200.00 transfer tax.

Enabling this refocusing is a series of internal mandates that have rippled across Deloitte & Touche, Ernst & Young, and PricewaterhouseCoopers. No poaching! Leadership in each of these firms has instructed the respective partners not to take advantage of KPMG's weakened condition.
