Why

[TacC]

Why is Government so invested in how loud a report from a weapon is ?

If you are talking about a noise reduction device that fits on the end of the barrel of a firearm. I was working with my son a few months back. We over heard a few leftest commies talking about these and how it makes it easier for a "killer to kill more people, because no one will here the shots". No lie, I had to keep from laughing, my son had to hold me back from giving them the truth.

I cant believe people think "Hollywood quite" is real.

I have no idea. In In much of the world using a supressor is considered good manners.

Guilty of this myself honestly. I don't think its being a "left wing commie", its just lack of experience.

The first time i heard a can in person was at an indoor range (glock, sub-sonic rounds i'd guess). I was floored how quiet it was. But thinking about that, i'm already wearing ear-pro, and he's doing everything to make that shot as quiet as possible in an already loud environment.

Next experience was in rifle classes; and my thought was "damn, i appreciate how much quieter that is". Context, ear-pro, indoors, single-shooter. All it took was breaking the seal on one ear to drive home how loud that shot still was though.

It was those subsequent experiences that made me fall into that category GrayFox references... can's save ears baby!

Money

Thugs aren’t running around shooting people with suppressors.

By itself it’s no more dangerous than the muffler on your Briggs & Stratton but they get $200 a pop.

Not about sound but about control of citizens!

WINNER, WINNER chicken dinner!

If not for control, the entire NFA is useless.
