Deactivated Maxim Silencer Question

I have a Stevens Favorite that has a threaded adapter and a deactivated Maxim Silencer. The Maxim has a "window" cut lengthwise along one side, so it is non-functioning or deactivated. It twists on and off.
Before I list the rifle for sale are there any states that still consider this restricted? I couldn't find anything and it's nothing more than an historical and very rare collector curiosity , in its current state.

That is a shame.

Mine was about 4" long, probably more and closer baffles & due to the hole in center, the front sight was hardly visible.
I'll be posting it for sale today, with the rifle.
If it is that simple I should expect that it would not be really "deactivated".
A semi-auto AK, AR, etc is legal until you modify it to full auto, unless you have a registered sear.
Modifying it to work would be illegal. Making a silencer is illegal unless you are properly licensed.
Close but not quiet. ANYONE can make a silencer/suppressor legally by filling out an AFT Form 1 and submitting it. Wait for it to come back approved and you can LEGALLY build.
The only NFA item not allowed to be built for civilian/civilian sales is machine guns.
