Can I share my AR with suppressor?

[RussSurfs]

I’m going to be bringing a friend to an up coming two gun match. He will be sharing my AR. Can he run stages with it with the suppressor still on it or do I need to remove it?

EDIT:
I did better research, Grits1/5 is right. You can supervise the use of the can.

One thing to consider when two people running a can, you'll be sending a lot of rounds through it with fewer breaks. The thing gets hot.

With you being present, there should be no issue. I’ve fired many of different friend’s class 3 items over the years, and you can even rent class 3 weapons at some gun ranges, so as long as you are present with him, I don’t think there is any issue. I don’t believe that you could loan it to him, if you weren’t there, as you are accountable for any class 3 items that are registered to you. But with you are there with him, you should be good to go.

That was my thought as well. Good point about how hot it will be getting. We may need to rotate a couple rifles.

As long as you are in close proximity, no problem.

In other words, he should not have the suppressor in his possession at one end of the range/complex while you are at the other end.
