I wonder what a silencer for a Desert Eagle would look like?
I’m guessing it would look just like a rifle suppressor and would way just as much.
I wish they would’ve added SBR’s to the bill as well.
And by woodchucks you mean cats?
‘Hearing Protection Act’ is a great name for it.
That was the Hughes Amendment in the Firearm Owners’ Protection Act.
No.
Woodchucks.
And coyote.
And possum.
They should also remove SRRs and full auto firearms from the freedom stifling NFA also.
thank you ...I use a ar-7 with no butt on it... kinda like a long pistol...I was thinking shotgun for squirrels I can not hit
I have a 22LR suppressor. It took about 10 months to get the paperwork approved - I used a Gun Trust as the owner so when I die, the suppressor transfers to the designated alternate trustee. The good part of this is that it negates the need to have a CLEO sign off - sometimes troublesome depending on where you live.
As for the suppression, mine is a good one made by AAC but truthfully it isn’t impressive. I shoot Aguila primer-only 22LRs in my SW 617 in the basement unsuppressed. When I put the suppresser on my Beretta Cheetah or the Sig Mosquito or on the Ruger 10/22 the noise is about the same as the primer only S&W revolver shots.
I’d add, though, that this is in a basement with walls and a lot of sound reflecting surfaces - it would probably be more quiet out doors.
Is that a Spectre 2 on a 22/45? I’ve got the same rig.
Concerning the NFA, I wouldn't mind it so bad if it certified me and then I was licensed to buy whatever NFA item(s) I chose. But having to go thru the whole process on a per item basis just seems like punitive harrassment. And it is.
Would love to see this approved. I wear hearing aids thanks (at least in part) to firing the M-14 without any hearing protection. Shooting just about any gun now bothers my hearing, even with double protection. I’ve avoided getting suppressors because of all the paperwork involved and fear of getting on yet another government list.
STOP POSTING THE OVERSIZED OICTURES...WE CANNOT READ THE RESULTING TEXT IN AN IPAD!
I know many who own FA’S who favor it’s repeal.
I have a Sig 300BO suppressed with a Silencerco Specwar762 suppressor. Just like in the movies. Tres cool!
“STOP POSTING THE OVERSIZED OICTURES...WE CANNOT READ THE RESULTING TEXT IN AN IPAD!”
Sorry about that. I didn’t intend for it to come out that size. It’s only the 3rd picture I’ve ever posted. I used to get upset as well when people would post full sized pictures, because I do ALL my reading and posting from an iPhone, but by zooming in I can read all the text when someone does like I did and posts a mile long hotlink or a full sized image.
“Is that a Spectre 2 on a 22/45? Iâve got the same rig.”
Yep! Trijicon on top. Hard to beat the 22/45 or a Mark 2 to go along with a 10/22. The perfect go everywhere/bugout pistol and rifle.
Mine happily works with my 7,62 NATO long rifle, my shorty AK, and with a 7,62x25 Tokarev pistol. I'm so happy with it, I'm getting another shorter one in the same caliber for use with an AR15-type rifle with a 7,62x40 WT barrel on it, my answer as to what the .300 Blackout should have been.
And I may pick up a 7,62 Tokarev barrel for a Super .38 chambered M1911 as well. Merry Christmas, followed by Happy Birthday.
Happily, they're legal for hunting in Wyoming as well. Gives me some thoughts about the .300 Win Mag or .300 H&H I hasd not preveiously considered. Hmmmm, and then there's the Garand; just rework a M1 Garand's T37 flash suppressor for the can mount, and....
