Yeah, suppressors don't cause emphysema and won't leave you eat up with cancer.

Next time you cross the bridge, pitch it out into priest.

Well...I can't have people thinking I'm a respectable fella.

I can think of just as many practical purposes for a suppressed AR than I can some antiquated over priced boat anchor like a 1911. Ohh yes I did!!!

Trijicon. I love em. I like to wake up in the middle of the night for no reason and see them glowing.

Ahh, but the suppressor will help you save ammo. Not knowing where the shots are coming from, the zombies will be less likely to overrun your position allowing you the precious time to take careful aim.

Are you behind on your rent? The kids hungry? The wife griping? NO? Well, no intervention needed. Lookin' good. Solid investments too. Better than stocks.

Well, that's just the difference in people. It's the reason the market is saturated with everything it has. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by buying a suppressor and not spending the money on guns and ammo. What kind of gumby would buy a suppressor without first having the gun and ammo? If, instead you meant the appropriations of the funds you have available, then that makes sense. NFA items are not a game for everyone. You have to pay to play. If you can't afford it, you're in the wrong game. As far as the (5) $400 guns, I've been down that road. I lived by that rule for many years. One day I looked at my collection and was shocked at how disgusted I was by mediocrity. I'd heap rather have ONE top shelf AR-15 with an extra BCG and small assortment of perishable parts like gas rings and cam pins, than TWENTY run of the mill AK's or some dime a dozen SKS. You absolutely DO get what you pay for. I'd have a rack full of Larue tactical if I could afford it. As it is, I built all my AR's using the best parts I could get my hands on. It hurt like hell to pay some of the prices I've paid. I have yet to lament one dime I have spent on top shelf kit. I sold off around 20 rifles and a dozen handguns to fund what I have now which consists of less than quarter of what I had (quantity wise). Everything I have will work without fail. I can't say that for some of the low budget turds I used to own. To each his own, bkelm18 is spot on, Because we can.

I'm having trouble with my eyes. The pressure spikes from the muzzle blast makes my eyes go fuzzy. For me, noise reduction means nothing, but getting a 95% reduction in felt muzzle blast is worth twice what I will spend on one. Also, in TN it is legal to hunt with one. Who wouldn't want to deer hunt with one? Especially for those of us who have access to hunt in places where, although legal, pose sensitive issues with the locals. Paranoia trumps all. For those of us who suffer from delusions of future chaos, a suppressor is a massive tactical advantage.

Nooo, think about it Just pickin' at you bro, nothing personal.

I voted for "Why" because I'd like to know why you put the question in the choices and the choices in the subject line. Let me take this time to ask everyone to support your local chapter of D.A.M. Mothers against dyslexia.

Both are excellent guns. Ask around and see if you can find someone who'll let you shoot the M&P9 before you buy one. Wish I had done that with the XD45 I had. I prefer the Glock, but you're not using my hands to shoot with so it's gotta fit your hands.

I hate Numrich. They're one of the few that actually have the hard to find parts you need, but they are a bunch of Yanks and not always easy to deal with. I will say though, they'll make it right. They'll stick you in the butt for shipping and be rude on the phone but in all the dealings I've had with them over the years, they've never crooked me once. I've had a couple of returns and they handled it professionally, but a bit cold. Must be a Yankee thing.

I use this to carry my Surefire and a spare magazine for my G19 http://www.midwayusa.com/product/989567/galco-mfp-paddle-single-magazine-and-flashlight-pouch-double-stack-9mm-40-s-and-w-magazine-surefire-g2-g3-6p-z2-leather-black

Good lord, how do you bend over!??!??

Well, I won't support them with my money, time or kind comments, so what else is there? I won't openly bash them or make disparaging remarks but that's as far as I go.

Good deal Inertia For what it's worth, I do it all the time. :foot: :foot: ...and welcome to the board!

Give me a few more weeks. Maybe a month. I'll send you my data book for SMP-842. I want to test out another dozen or so different kind of bullets I have. Variety is good, no? Adding to what you have and any other help offered here and maybe we can get a decent data sheet going.

Yeah, i get that. But...piss on them. In a word - iTunes. Cheaper, faster, don't have to search through cråp.

Yes they do. I picked up some more of those from you at the last show along with a box of primed brass. Tucked that thousand rounds away for hard times.

Never. Not just because it's illegal, also because I refuse to grace any establishment with the privilege of having my business and/or presence if they don't support my right.

If all else fails there is a solution under Article AR-1-5 section 5.56x45

I just can't get past Tom Cruise.

If you want a G19, do NOT settle.

He was sittin' around one day and says to himself: What could I do to REALLY make NRA mad. .....hmmmmm, I know!!
