And just as pointless and ineffective as the “bump stock” ban which can be circumvented with a heavy duty rubber band or a dozen other ways. A perfectly serviceable silencer can be constructed with a motorcycle muffler and some heat tape, there are dozens of videos floating around the internet.
I’d like to see a silencer put on the Abrahms Battleax and the Clinton Canklemaster.
Stupid, as usual. This would be the camel’s nose in the tent, the first baby step to elimination of guns, forget the second amendment.
We need to eliminate bad people, not objects.
“... shall not be infringed”.
Silencer sales going through the roof in 3.....2....1....
They’ll spend months trying to figure out the difference between a silencer and a suppressor.
My several suppressors won’t be going anywhere without me.
Was the shooter wearing underwear? We might need additional bans. Where are all the calls for banning underwear? And shoes, I bet he was wearing shoes and they allowed him to move faster than if he were barefoot. Where are all the calls to ban Nike assault shoes?
At the link, “politicians” = mostly Hillary Clinton. Considering the number of professional hits she has ordered, you’d think she would know that a suppressor only knocks the sound down about 20 Db. Pre-emptive incarceration of guys named DeWayne would do much more to reduce crime, and noise, than banning mufflers. I assume Hillary is for that, too.
A suppressor did NOT enable this tragedy. Just a bunch of desperate, ignorant politicians grasping at straws to blame something other than the nut case who pulled the trigger....
Not this crap again....
Yeah, if the silencer hadn’t been there, none of this would have happened.
Of course none of the other gun laws prevented this, even though this guy broke some of the most serious laws we have.
He committed 12 murders. Isn’t there a law against that?
Oh yeah, there is.
A silencer and a suppressor are the same thing. Neither does what it’s name says. A silencer doesn’t stop sound and a suppressor doesn’t stop flash.
When Hiram Percy Maxim invented the suppressor, he referred to it as the ‘Maxim Silencer’ in his patent and marketing materials. The Maxim Silencer was a big hit because of all the advantages it offered. As a result, the word Silencer caught on quickly - and is now used as the legal definition in both state and federal regulations, as well as on all ATF forms.

They are easily made in a typical shop.

Interestingly, when a leftist approved shooter murders people we don't hear about the possibility that certain behaviors or beliefs lead to mass shootings. Instead, inanimate objects are to blame.
Any “ban” on silencers at the Federal level would require new legislation. The executive “ban” on bump stocks is clearly unconstitutional, but if the moribund NRA is too jammed up with its own financial corruption to do anything useful, someone else will need to bring the lawsuits.
