It seems that Silencerco has brought a product to market that they claim is legal in all 50 states.
It is a black powder gun with a fixed in place silencer.

I wondered if this was Illinois legal so I took a look at the actual law on such things in Illinois. I came to the conclusion it could well be legal given the definition of firearm found in the criminal code. At least under current law. I am not completely convinced though.
