Also because suppressed firearms are generally still loud as hell (save subsonic ammunition) but just below being dangerous to your hearing.
Think gunshot 2-3 feet away from you (arm's length) vs a gunshot 60+ feet away, like at a memorial with full honors.

>>32868005
WHAT'S THAT?

A PRIORI MONGRELS?

YES THOSE SUCK

>>32868043
That's a poor comparison. You know, since pepperboxes don't revolve. And the government refers to them legally as silencers.

>>32868061

Its not a bad thing to admit that you're wrong.
No shame in being wrong.

ahahaha why dont you faggots just admit that you want it because you want to pew pew and play pretend operator. its the only argument you fucking have, why dont just use it anyway

>MUH HEARING

Just use peltors or regular ear plugs. Even fancy electronic kit is still 5 times cheaper than a suppressor. So your argument is invalid.

>>32868104
Suppressors don't silence.
Government does all sorts of dumb shit. Blacks had 3/5ths of a vote for a while.

>>32868135
If this passed I could make a suppressor out of $40 worth of shit at any auto parts store.

>>32868124
not to mention that suppressors only muffle a shot. They don't make a bang into a whisper. They make a bang into a safer, quieter bang.

>>32868130
They get called suppressors because they suppress shots. They don't magically make all of the sound of a shot disappear.

>>32868135
A suppressor can be used in conjunction with these for more safety.
>why do you need a seatbelt, you have airbags!
and you can make suppressors for dirt fucking cheap if you know what you are doing

>>32868130
I'm glad you're willing to. It's a rare thing.

>>32868144
Yeah but it would probably suck.

Titanium and Inconel are important materials because it makes your suppressor not weigh 4 lbs.

Stainless direct-thread would be effective, but heavy. Heavy enough to fuck up your point of impact.

>>32868151
Its called a silencer because it is patented as a silencer.
Again, just admit that you're wrong and we can all move on with our lives.

>>32868209
Car mufflers are still called silencers.

>>32868212
>Coca cola was originally considered medicine.
This isn't the same thing at all. Coca Cola originally was medicine. It stopped being medicine because the formula changed, not because the meaning of the word medicine changed.

Damn, bunch of retards on this website.

>>32868208
>implying the guy breaking in will have a suppressor too

>>32868209
>>32868212
Rev up those terrible analogies everyone.
First of all, mufflers were never patented as silencers, the fact that some people still call them silencers is because language evolves over time and while it does not actually silence the exhaust, it does reduce noise, something that is commonly, but wrong, associated with something being silent.
A similar example would be the words autism or cuck on the internet.
Now when i call you an autistic cuck, do i think that you're actually diagnosed with autism and that you enjoy watching your wife getting railed by other men?
No, i call you that because both words have become derogatory in nature.
You're dumb if you're autistic and you're effeminate and weak if you're a cuck.
Both words dont actually mean what i imply they mean, but you and i know what i'm implying when i call you an autistic cuck, same with the silencer.
Everyone knows its not silent, but everyone gets the jist of what i'm talking about.
>>32868212
Coca cola being a medicine is a also a wrong analogy and something that was changed over time.
Coca cola isnt being regarded as a medicine anymore, because it has no medicinal uses anymore, however it is still called coca cola because its the name of the product.
The Silencer doesnt silence a gunshot, but its still called a Silencer because its the name of the product.

>>32868135
>Just use peltors or regular ear plugs.

Not always an option, especially for scenarios where you're near animals or in self defense scenarios.

Hard to defend yourself when you're deaf as shit after the first shot.

Why would even a gun grabber oppose suppressors? If anything a suppressor makes a firearm harder to conceal which I believe is a good thing according to them

because fuck liberals

>>32868247
Because they live in hollywood meme world where silencers reduce report to a tiny "pewt pewt" that allows them to kill in total silence.

>>32868246
>especially for scenarios where you're near animals or in self defense scenarios.
Throw your bitch ass dog in the closet and put the ear muffs near your HD weapon. Done.

>>32868212
Coca Cola originally had coke in it too. Wish I could go back to the good ol times.

>>32868247
It also reduces their terminal performance if they want it to be real quiet.

>load up them sub-sonics
>get pistol caliber ballistics even with .300 memeout

How bad is 147gr 9mm tho? Probably less power reduction going from regular 9mm to sub-sonic 9mm or just using .45 than rifle rounds.

So, potentially, we could see terror or mass shooting events have lower casualties due to trying to have a quieter weapon.

>>32868005

First off

Second because guns can damage your ears. The fucking people who only keep handguns for home defense need it more then anyone else. People who are at the rang expect to be shooting can wear ear plugs. Some poor bastard who has to shoot a home invader is rolling the dice on fucking up his hearing in the short term versus long term.

On the off-chance you’re actually asking this question and want to know.

First off, it’s not a silencer. That’s a marketing ploy. It suppresses the sound of a gun from “ear-damagingly loud” to “wow that was really loud .
Feel free to look up the decibel values and comparisons yourself.

But more importantly, it is a safety device. It makes so that people don’t harm their hearing.
Yet the government has made it nearly impossible to obtain them without expensive and lengthy processes.

If the government made it so car manufacturers couldn’t put safety belts in vehicles, and you had to pay extra and full out paperwork to get basic safety features, wouldn’t you be justly upset?
Yet there are more guns than cars in the U.S. now.
And cars are merely a privilege. Yet guns (a right) are restricted.

This is why it is important and urgent.

>>32873254
Sure, if we were talking about the original invention, we would have to call it a silencer because that's what it was called. However, the devices are designed by many manufacturers to suppress the sound and, therefore, the shorthand name can be suppressor.

Regardless of what it was originally called, they're all devices designed to suppress the report of a firearm, not silence it. Therefore, it is logically flawed to call all suppressors silencers.

Actually supressor is the marketing ploy silencer is what the inventer called it. Supressor was a cutesy name that is trying to convince the consumer that the company is trustworthy because they are not promising a totally solent gun. The term supressor is a very new term. They were silencers for decades.

I want a suppressor so badly...

someone tell me what you think the odds are this thing will pass and they will not be NFA items anymore?

is there really a chance?

>>32881015

hearing is important, making yourself deaf out in the woods is not safe be it from wearing headphones all day or from ear ringing after the shot

Reason for suppressors:

There are plenty of places that are safe to shoot and places that could have gun ranges if it were not for the noise pollution to nearby homes/towns

there is no reason for me not to be able to shoot with a can at the range, it does not hurt anyone or make my weapon more deadly but it can dampen the sound and open up more ranges and lessen the annoyance some ranges cause

earplugs cant do that

and back then $200 was the equivalent of $3000 today making them basically unaffordable to everyone

it's not the 200bucks, it's the year wait and having to be fingerprinted by the ATF and the fact that if you leave your can at a friends house overnight it's a felony

it's too much fucking trouble (as they intended) and too sketchy legally to be worth it for many people who want them for legit reasons

>You want to know how much a suppressor would cost if the gov't got their dicks out of the pudding? $20 bucks.

no actually good ones are kind of expensive, several hundred dollars without the stamp even figured in

$500 or more for anything that is quality and not for a .22

The ATF has none of my fingerprints (that I know of), and my friends are all in my trust so I can leave my stuff with whomever I like.

The wait is annoying, I grant you, but there was a time where 2-3 months was normal for e-forms and 6 months was the long end of paper forms.

I downloaded Quicken Willmaker and printed a trust out for free, it cost me $10 to notarize and any amendments I make cost another $10 to notarize. Some states don't even require a notary to officialize a trust or will.

You're making this out into a huge hyperbolous ordeal when it really isn't. Even without a trust it's not complicated, expensive, difficult or even time-consuming.

If you have a moral objection to the process, I understand that. But your primary concerns seem to be unfounded. I don't know you tho, so I'm probably misjudging.

>>32890111
You really can't.

Suppressors make a gun go from being as loud as a jet engine to as loud as a jackhammer (80-100 decibels)

>>32868005
why do cars need mufflers? same reason: it's a safety device to lessen noise and help ameliorate hearing loss. likewise it helps against noise pollution in in-door ranges.

if anything it increases the size of a gun so they aren't as easy to conceal either. why WOULDN'T a pro gun control person want them issued?

>>32868005
>sounds above 85 decibels can be harmful
>.22 rifles go at 134 descibles

And this is just for a .22
Even if you had a suppressor you'd still be using hearing protection.

If you have a lathe it is. A lot faster to cut some threads than punch out a bunch of baffles and weld them inside a tube.

because firearms are owned by nearly 100 million americans, and shooting without a suppressor is dangerous to your health.

>>32897750
Don't really know much about suppressors specifically, but I have had several senior level classes in noise propagation/control. A lot of fins like that would most likely help by eliminating sound by reflection after the sound producing time periods have ended. However, the expansion chamber would be significantly smaller, so there would be a louder noise from expanding gas. So a trade off. Don't know which would have a larger effect: the increase or decrease in noise.

Look - Britain not only has them legal but to hunt/shoot in many areas you're required to have a silencer/suppressor.

If it was up to me, it should be required on all rifles over intermediate action length,(308 and up) they are too loud.
