There is no way in hell Congress will legalize silencers...

???

They're already legal in many states, which negates the argument that they're unsafe in other places.

They're sold in peg hook packs in hardware stores in Europe and are required at many outdoor ranges there.

In addition, 3D printing has already made it possible for criminals to get them.

Nope... that proves that people who go through the NFA class III process for half a year don’t commit crimes.
And I have seen that in Europe. In England years ago, I went out hunting with a farmer and every gun he owned had one... even shotguns.
He considered it polite and it was no big deal to own one.

But this repub congress is NOT conservative in any way. There is no way in hell they are gonna let hood rats in Florida, St Louis, Chicongo, LA, Albuquerque, Denver, Philly Etc get far easier access to silencers. Just not gonna happen.

3d printing, yeah. And of Facebook you always get these “Fuel filter” kit advertisements that are nothing but silencers ready to go with the drilling of a single hole.
But a fuel filter or printer homemade without you NFA gets you 10 years federal.

I would love it if they did it... but they won’t.

Maybe if we tell them we are Ukrainian or something....
