The state of Montana has signed into power a revolutionary gun law. I mean REVOLUTIONARY.
The State of Montana has defied the federal government and their gun laws. This will prompt a showdown between the federal government and the State of Montana . The federal government fears citizens owning guns. They try to curtail what types of guns they can own. The gun control laws all have one common goal - confiscation of privately owned firearms.
Montana has gone beyond drawing a line in the sand. They have challenged the Federal Government. The fed now either takes them on and risks them saying the federal agents have no right to violate their state gun laws and arrest the federal agents that try to enforce the federal firearms acts. This will be a world-class event to watch.
Montana could go to voting for secession from the union, which is really throwing the gauntlet in Obama's face. If the federal government does nothing they lose face. Gotta love it.
Important Points - If guns and ammunition are manufactured inside the State of Montana for sale and use inside that state then the federal firearms laws have no applicability since the federal government only has the power to control commerce across state lines. Montana has the law on their side. Since when did the USA start following their own laws especially the constitution of the USA , the very document that empowers the USA .
Silencers made in Montana and sol in Montana would be fully legal and not registered. As a note silencers were first used before the 007 movies as a device to enable one to hunt without disturbing neighbors and scaring game. They were also useful as devices to control noise when practicing so as to not disturb the neighbors.
Silencers work best with a bolt-action rifle. There is a long barrel and the chamber is closed tight so as to direct all the gases though the silencer at the tip of the barrel. Semi-auto pistols and revolvers do not really muffle the sound very well except on the silver screen. The revolvers bleed gas out with the sound all over the place. The semi-auto pistols bleed the gases out when the slide recoils back.
Silencers are maybe nice for snipers picking off enemy soldiers even though they reduce velocity but not very practical for hit men shooting pistols in crowded places. Silencers were useful tools for gun enthusiasts and hunters.
There would be no firearm registration, serial numbers, criminal records check, waiting periods or paperwork required. So in a short period of time there would be millions and millions of unregistered untraceable guns in Montana . Way to go Montana !
Thank you for posting
you cheered me up today. Keep working.
Next SECCESSTION.
I’d retire to Montana if it weren’t so darn cold!

I know, too cold for us. I’m a die hard Southerner. Have to have warmth and oceans or I’m miserable.
A 300 and 338 Whisper® sub-machine gun has been developed which renders obsolete any "pistol" caliber sub-gun. Accuracy and control are simply unmatched by any other subgun. A pistol has also been developed. Both can be suppressed. The 6.5 Whisper® (85 through 160 grain bullets) and the 7MM Whisper® (100 through 185-grain bullets) are ready for sale. Both work in AR-15/M-16 as well as other type guns. The 338 Whisper® (175-300 grain bullets) is extremely accurate and may be had in Contenders or "308" bolt action rifles can be converted to it. A switch barrel 338 Whisper® .308/7/08 can also be had. The 458 Whisper® uses all normal 458 bullets plus 560 and 600-grain low-drag bullets for tremendous downrange performance. The 500 Whisper® is simply the most powerful subsonic round in existence. Both of these can be had in bolt actions or Ruger #1 rifles. Numerous other very accurate sub-sonic rounds utilizing heavy ballistically efficient bullets have been developed. Those with special needs are invited to inquire.
Some may dispute the development scenario; other claim several of these cartridges were around in limited availability since the mid '60s.
nd here I am stuck in Florida with a governor that makes Michelle jealous...

LMAO, isn’t that the truth. CRIST needs to be voted out of politics in FL FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m born and raised in Miami and we have one hell of a gun friendly state.

Hi neighbor and I agree with you. FL does have decent gun laws.
while we have some of the best gun laws in the country here in FL we do not think for one minute that this Gov Crist would do anything like this

Hell NO!!! His nose is stuck so far up the Kenyan Maxist’s a** it’s pathetic. He is a complete Federal govt. teat sucker.
Typically, the action (slide and bolt) make more noise than the round being fired. It’s kinda like “clack clack clack”.
My only concern is how to get to Montana from North Commilina once martial law is declared.
Night vision googles and a rifle :)
I’m not going for any night vision googles. I heard google was pro-commie.
Well, that’s potentially beside the point, since the whole point is that MT is stating they’re no longer going to assume every federal edict is valid, and the last time I checked, SCOTUS works for the FedGov.
I did one better and emailed the Governor myself making a request for the transcript. Also thanked him for “expanding freedom” and standing up for our rights.
We’ll see what we get.
Other states should copy this law, and as quick as possible.

Repeated exposure to suppressed center fire discharges can cause hearing damage. 30db (or whatever) or reduction still leave lots of sound, in the realm of power tools, and such.
I read there is something like this going on in Oklahoma too. The problem I can forsee is that states that liberalize their gun laws can expect an influx of a criminal element because they use guns too. Also, terrorists might be interested in moving to easy gun open states.
The difference is, .22 (target long rifle rounds) and .45 are BOTH sub sonic. You’d be surprised. Yes, suppressors are just that, used for suppressing (reducing) recoil, muzzle rise, flash, and sound.
I believe part of the Montana bill states that Montana will defend whoever is arrested/fined/whatever by the feds.
The exact opposite of your postulations will occur.
Criminals go to states with draconian gun laws so they will have guns and the citizens won’t. Terrorists do not buy guns retail or legally. Both avoid states with concealed and / or open carry.
>>The difference is, .22 (target long rifle rounds) and .45 are BOTH sub sonic.
That’s a similarity, not a difference. Yet the 45 is unsurprisingly much louder because of the much greater energy.
>> You’d be surprised.
Actually, I wouldn’t be.
I guess this is what Biden was talking about with Obama’s big test.
