A) They are suppressors, not silencers
B) “one purpose and one purpose only...except the primary purpose - protect your hearing”.

Good luck with that. Way too many people already own them.

Well how else is law enforcement supposed to sneak up on unsuspecting innocent people

In Europe it is considered impolite not to use a suppressor when shooting.

I use suppressors when ever I can. Molon Labe.

What does box 4b on your Form 4 say?




They’re interchangeable terms, it’s not the same issue as magazine vs clip....

The guy that invented them said "silencer". Good enough for me.

"Suppressor" is just a bs, pseudo PC term to try to not hurt feels(IMO), I'm over that shit. Look at where it's gotten us.

Once you start you really don't want to shoot without them.

If anyone cared about history or facts its easy google, they were only invented to make target shooting more enjoyable. There was no military application for them originally.

You know that those asswipes don't know what suppressors were used for back in the days.. Poaching. Not assassination.. Shesh if a guy is going to kill someone, would they care about a ban law on suppressors.

Stupid politicians.

I'd gladly pay the inflated $5 for a silencer. Current price does not reflect inflation in the slightest.

While I agree with you, I also realize that logic has little to do with those who wish to ban guns and silencers/suppressors.
