I read some time ago that people in Europe (I think it was Germany) are EXPECTED to use silencers on their firearms so as not to disturb others with the firing.
All the liberals in the US, whose experience with firearms is limited to James Bond movies, would have heart attacks if the laws were re-written to REQUIRE that disturbed neighbors pay for the silencers.
Finland. Where the legacy of the snipers who fought the Russians to a standstill, right before WW-II, is still alive.
