SilencerCo rep openly against HPA

Just got home from a local gun exhibition featuring a rep from SilencerCo. While waiting to shoot the Maxim 9 I inquired about the companies stance on tge HPA jokingly asking if they were "Hopeful or realistic about its chances"
The response I got was suprising, the rep informed me that he not only believes it will fail, but that he HOPES it won't pass. His reasoning was that if it passes suppressors will be too widely available and will become commonly used in crime, prompting a government crackdown that will put SilencerCo out of business.
He also stated that the NFA is a good system (with the exception of long wait times) and it's important to keep suppressors out of the hands of people not willing to do the paperwork and pay the fees.

Absolutely, and while I don't particularly hold that line of thinking against him he flat out said the NFA system is important and and well written with the ONLY exception being the long waiting period for approval.
He also argued that people not willing or able to go through the process should not own them.

Also, the suppressor they had out for the Glock was causing failures to go into battery every single shot (rep claimed it was due to shooters holding the trigger to the rear) and then finally sheared the welds holding the end cap on causing it to fly a few feet down range.

Rep claimed it was a two year old suppressor with tens of thousands of rounds through it and pointed out that it would be a two week turnaround time for repair if a customer experienced the same failure.
The can was certainly well used and I see no reason to doubt the round count, but it was interesting.

>>34295802
The other attendee who was talking to him was pretty pissed and pointed out that criminals will get the tools they need no matter what, rep countered by stating that in the past 20 years only two crimes were committed with suppressors and that is evidence if how well the NFA keeps them out of the habdhands of criminals.

A 200 dollar decrease per unit of product would eliminate the DWL all together. I'd expect to see the popularity of threaded barrels increase as well

Criminals don't want or need suppressors. They're incredibly bulky and don't reduce noise levels by nearly as much as people think. Violent crime isn't perpetrated by super sekrit assassins with snipuh raffles. It's done by people shoving a concealable weapon down their pants and getting out of dodge as fast as possible.
>>
>>34295958
Clarify please: Are you saying if the $200 tax stamp goes away, suppressors can be $200 cheaper?
>>
Here's some facts

1. Niggers are responsible for the majority of violent crime - especially "gun violence"
2. Niggers use Saturday night specials because they'd rather blow their money on weed and want to ditch the gun in the river. They won't even buy good handguns might as less suppressors.

that's only because some jamal hasn't taken it upon himself to pump out homemade suppressors for whatever reason

As for me, I want suppressors because the most likely time I'll have to fire without hearing protection is a break in.

If Jamal wasn't adverse to work, he wouldn't need to commit crime.
>>
>>34295694
Honestly he's right. The NFA has done a fantastic job at preventing crime with NFA weapons. The biggest joke about gun control is that it actually does work.
>>
>>34295980
This
>>
>>34295979
A 200 dollar tax stamp is placed on the purchase of every single sound suppressor.
(Government intervention in a market whether it be a subsidy or a tax always creates dead weight loss, or inefficiency)
Simply put, it's a $200 stamp + the cost of the suppressor. Because demand is constrained by the $200 dollar tax stamp firms they have a higher operating cost. If there was an increase in quantity demanded prices would decrease for both consumers and producers.
>>
>>34295935
>How many threaded barrels are out there?
SCo makes threaded barrels, so demand for several of their products would skyrocket.

Also, on the topic of the Maxim 9

>Fantastic grip, the ergonomics were spot on for my hands, YMMV as the finger grooves may not fit you

>Sights were easy to acquire, pistol lifted right into my vision, sight radius made shooting a 24" plate at 100yds easy

>Felt recoil was almost non existent, I was very impressed by how smooth it shot

>The gun did pinch my thumb but it's my fault for trying to get a CZ high grip

>The trigger was absolutely awful, felt like a safety was on and I was about to break the trigger then suddenly it would give and the gun would fire, trigger had at least two distinct 'walls' and required conscious effort to pull.

>Balance was excellent and I found myself asking to pick it up several times just to manipulate it.

>>34295863
To expand on the suppressor making the Glock malfunction, I'm pretty sure the Nelson Device was dirty as shit and not working properly. It was caked in thick hard carbon when the rep dissasembled it after the end cap broke off.

>>34295965
Totally understand, I'm not a youtuber or asshole, otherwise I'd have videotaped the conversation.
>>
>>34295980
casual racism is a little over the top, and your points will be taken more seriously without it.

A large portion of guns used in crimes are stolen, especially in B/E crimes. If silencers can be bought OTC like guns, straw buying them will be huge, because even criminals can understand the benefits of a suppressed weapon.
>>
>>34296078
/facepalm

>>34296001
This is accurate. If suppressors are legalized en masse then crime with them WILL increase exponentially. Right now they're a tightly regulated item.

Just like those high cap mags and AR-15s.
I work at a gun store, the people most likely to be criminals don't even know what caliber ammo to buy or what mags their gun uses. I highly doubt they are gonna know what suppressor they should buy.
Also isn't there a stat that says only like 8% of all guns used in a crime are purchased legally?
Criminals already don't do paperwork for the gun, why would they do it for a steel fleshlight?
>>
>>34296189
The NFA has actually been the best argument for strict gun control ever made, leftists are just too dumb to realize it. It's a decades-long longitudinal study in gun control, complete with a study control group, and definitively proves that gun control works.
>>
>>34296158
more like barely make any money and go out of business in a few years. because only rich fags with more money than sense will buy an integrally suppressed pistol and play the NFA game. so most people will get a 9mm suppressor that can work on lots of firearms.
>>
>>34296223
the suppressed pistol is hardly silencerco's only offering, and they've done just fine without it for quite a long time.

>>34296202
Rep pointed out that if suppressors are not difficult to get legally treacherous items the average gun owner will be more casual with storage and they will be more likely to be stolen.

>Th following is personal conjecture, but it seems like he was trying to say only people that will go through the NFA process are responsible enough to own suppressors. Fuck your constitution you're all bubba joe retard redneck and don't deserve his fine products

Can you demonstrate that the NFA has actually reduced violent crime, or has it just led to violent crime being perpetrated with different firearms?

>>
>>34296158
>suppressor use in crime skyrockets
Yeah, it'll be used in three crimes a year versus zero.
Let's be honest here, Jamal isn't going to shell out a couple hundred bucks for a threaded barrel for his hi point plus another couple hundred for a can just to shoot Tyrone. If he was going to do that, he would have already done it by buying a threaded barrel and nigger rigging an oil filter or something on the end of it.

No, he's going to buy a stolen hi point or glock or something from Tyreesus and then toss it
>>
>>34296305
The NFA has proven statistically that crime is reduced with the firearms covered by the act, which is all it was ever intended to do. Crimes with weapons covered by the NFA are a tiny fraction of crimes committed with "all" firearms.

Gun control in general is not "violent crime reduction" or it would be worded as such - it exists simply as measures designed to reduce crimes committed with certain types of firearms as written into whatever legislation is created.

Gun control simply reduces gun crime.

>b-but more guns means more gun crimes!
Gee, who would have thought? More Mc Donalds=More Fat people dying from heart attacks too, should that also be illegal? Turncoat ATF agents plz go
>>
>>34296319
If you were a criminal who is already OK with using guns for a crime and now are given the capability to make the gunshot much more indistinguishable for $500-600 (assuming a price drop post-ban) you'd do it. Suppressors can't be "hot" like guns used in crime because there is no such thing as ballistics for them, so they could be used or resold easily.
>>
>>34295694
Also, got to shoot a Mk17 Mod.0, a Mk16 Mod.0, full auto 10.5" "Mk18" (what the FN-USA rep called it not me), and a full auto P90.

The P90 was underwhelming, looked and felt like a cast hunk of metal on an airsoft gun body. Was still fun as shit to shoot though.

you do realize silencers are piss easy to make? it's a metal tube with some baffles inside. some are literally rubber discs in a stack. you can use oil cans to the same effect - see the recent Hickok45 vid about oil filter suppressors. if criminals wanted to use suppressed firearms it would be stupid simple to do so.

>>
>>34296381
Or I'd blow the money on strippers because I don't know shit about suppressors or how to use one, and hi points don't have threaded barrels so I'd have to start buying much more expensive guns to throw away after a shooting.
>>
>>34296381
Ballistics doesn't work like CSI:cunt snuffer told you it does.
And no, they won't shell out more money because they already don't. They are already buying the cheapest guns they can, no criminal is going to increase his cost by $600 for a slightly less loud kill and then throw away the suppressor like he does the gun.
Everyone knows nobody saw anything or heard anything.
>>
>>34296353
Following your logic another conclusion is that black Americans are less inclined, for a variety of reasons, to legally acquire NFA items therefore NFA items are less used in crime. NFA is proof that keeping guns away from niggers reduces crime.
>>
>>34296424
This.
Also, it might actually make it easier to catch repeat murderers, since (unless threaded barrels become ubiquitous enough to be commonly stolen) Tyreesuspeesus is a hell of a lot more likely to hold onto the gun he's already dropped a couple hundred dollars into plus the cost of a suppressor than he is that Jennings of whatever he picked up for a hundred bucks.

The NFA was designed to make certain firearms difficult to obtain in order to reduce crime with them, which it has successfully accomplished.

Your making the assertion that it has simply reduced crime levels of a certain race with those firearms ignores the overall reduction in crime with NFA weapons. That sort of casual racism is not only completely irrelevant to the conversation, but also makes you look very uneducated on the topic.
>>
>>34295979
A suppressor is literally 50 dollars worth of steel. SilencerCo can fuck off and die for extorting gunbuyers. If the HPA passes you would be able to manufacture your own suppressors.
>>
>>34296543
American wasn't awash in 300million+ machine guns and suppressors when the NFA was enacted. Trying to argue this is proof that banning all guns would have a similar effect at this point in history is retarded.

The genie is out of the bottle.
>>
>m-muh criem!
>>
>>His reasoning was that if it passes suppressors will be too widely available and will become commonly used in crime, prompting a government crackdown that will put SilencerCo out of business.

Bill Ruger had the same idea when he supported the California Safe Handgun Act. Now only Ruger and Glock can commercially sell their products in CA to civilians.

The problem doesn't lie in the company, but the men who run it. Most can't see past the fact that they will have to sell their product for less. They can't understand that even though they make less per unit, that they will sell many more units, and make more money at the end of the day.

That is a largely irrelevant comparison for a large variety of factors, including but not limited to the 2nd Amendment (and supporters), existing gun culture in the US, the US' propensity for and adoration of gratuitous violence in culture, largely focused around guns, shooting clubs and ranges, etc.

That being said, the article and the majority of statistics focus on "violent crime" and "armed robbery" without specification as to whether a firearm was used. Gun control simply reduces gun crime - the resulting change in generic violent crime rates is irrelevant to this discussion.

Yes, gun control reduces gun crime. Thank you.
This discussion is relevant in its relation to the potential legalization of suppressors and the resulting effect that legalizing them will have on your rights.

>>34296750
I'm not trying to appear smart nor do I support banning anything - you have to see the bigger picture here. RIGHT NOW you can legally own suppressors, albeit with a tax stamp and some hoops. If they are legalized, one WILL likely be used in a mass shooting crime at some point in the next few years, which will give anti-2nd Amendment politicians that last little bit of push they need to ban a lot more than just suppressors.

Look at the big picture here.

I don't think the guy arguing for the NFA wants to disarm everyone and install a dictatorship. The vast majority of people who support gun control actually just want to reduce crime. They just don't understand that it won't work and isn't worth the cost.

This whole "every gun control supporter is an illuminati communist Zionist conspiracy shill" thing just serves to make gun rights supporters look like unhinged nutcases instead of normal people who want to be able to defend themselves.

Yes, legislation is all that's going to happen. We all need to ensure that it's legislation that preserves what's left of our constitutional rights as best we can, though, and not support things that will wreck them even more.

Mark my words now, if the HPA passes in the next 8 years you WILL see a new and comprehensive "assault weapon" ban/legislation on a national level, directly as a result of legal suppressors in the form of suppressor-related crime.

The reason the idea that criminal use of silencers will explode is that silencers do one thing to the gun that criminals hate: make it longer and harder to conceal. Criminal use of long arms is already very low (in the hundreds), versus the thousands of uses of pistols. If you add the length of a suppressor onto something like a Glock, its like making the gun twice as long. That isn't something Jamal can stick into his waistband. So just like most criminals don't run around with pistol caliber carbines, or rifle caliber "pistols", due to size reasons, they won't run around with silenced weapons.

Criminals already do not wear ear protection. Silencers do not make guns whisper quiet. A gunshot without a suppressor is about as loud as a jackhammer. With a suppressor, its about as loud as an ambulance siren.

Silencers DO make the gun much less concealable.

Silencers are not effective for crime. Even if they were cheap and easy to get, criminals would not use them. And the few who did would not gain anything from it.

Tell me, if silencers are so good for crime, why weren't they constantly used before the NFA in 1934?

End of the day, this is the U.S., so legalizing suppressors here would absolutely result in them being used in a ton of crimes, unlike say in Norway (Or one of those Scandinavian countries, where you can buy them without licenses).

It's hard to say if that would lead to a successful crackdown federally, but it definitely would in a number of states, and depending on how the political landscape changes in the next few years, it could end up becoming a federal crackdown.

Hard to say. It's always possible that someone would try to crack down on suppressors anyway, but I think the fact that they rarely turn up involved in crimes or on the news kind of helps keep them out of mind.
>>
>>34297116
Then why do we not see them being used?

Don't give me that "niggers are too dumb" shtick. The cartels know what they're doing. And they've got the technical know-how to make them; they make fucking drug-smuggling submarines! So clearly, they have the ability to make them, and the knowledge of how they work. Why do they not use them? Could it be that they aren't actually that good for crime?
>>
>>34297156

Which, unless they take the time to dispose of the body (which they won't, because gangbangers) is utterly irrelevant. Remember, we're not talking about Agent 47 assassinating the president from a mile and a half away, we're talking about Tyrone doing a drive by of Thelonius's house. I'm pretty goddamn sure that the same police work is going to lead to the same place if the gunshot can only be heard by ten neighbor's (who won't snitch) than by a hundred (who also don't talk)

Literally just replace suppressor with gun in a gun ban country, or knives in Britbong and suddenly you see the problem with this argument. Allowing taboo to control your legislation is BAD.

So what if somebody tacks on a suppressor in a crime anyways? It's not a separate additional crime, it's the same gun. If criminals start putting cheap flashlights on their glocks should we start regulating flashlights too? I don't think so.
Suppressors need to stop being taboo

>My email to SilencerCo

Hello, this email is a request for clarification on the official SilencerCo stance on "H.R.367 - Hearing Protection Act of 2017"

As I understand it SilencerCo has been instrumental in the expansion of public knowledge and support for H.R.367, however, a company representative spoke openly against it at a firearms exhibition that I attended this morning. Your representative went so far as to say he hopes the bill fails, as ease of access to your product will increase use in violent crime leading to serous government regulation. He further stated that he is very supportive if the National Firearms Act and the form and tax requirements for legal purchase of suppressors for the general public.
I wanted to inquire about the representatives comments on H.R.367, and if it reflected an official company stance on the bill.

You have no idea what you are talking about.

Literally 90% of gun crime is "lets fuck some dem grove street niggas up wit muh new glock fourty senpai". Real life isn't a Hollywood glorification, the vast majority of violent criminals are fucking retarded, high on drugs or low on withdraw from them, often mentally ill, and have basically zero impulse control. A $600 silencer makes it harder for Tyrone to slip his stolen problem solva into his wristband and thus is better spent on more crack.

Most of them will get the shit scared out of them by news reports about how silencers are even more evil than black rifles and are used to assassinate newborn babies or something.

Casting 2A supporters as 'unhinged nut-cases' is just another aspect of the attempts to disarm America, and remove the martial aspect our culture has retained. Every law and compromise made involving firearms has only taken away rights, zero times has the firearms community gained anything from those agreements. The privilege of paying money to the government to buy something they already could before(NFA)? Only being allowed CCW if you bribe the right officials? (Shall-Issue)

The supreme court literally ruled in 2005 that the police have zero obligation to protect you. Why should the state have a monopoly on violence, especially if it involves your own life and limb?

>>34297116
Anyone with a Tap and die kit, some pipe from Home Depot, and an oil filter can make a suppressor. This is literally <$100 of materials, and the level of knowledge of a high school shop student. The fact silencers don't show up more in crime might speak to their limited utility.
>>34297187
IMO a silencer goes against thug mentality. They want everyone to know that Jamal and his gang went and shot up Tyrone's house, and that if Tyrone's homies come around, 'Mofo'z getting the same'. Police showing up is just incidental, it's all about fear and intimidation in that kind of world.

I'll guarantee all major suppressor manufacturers are against it, they just won't announce it because it would be bad for their image.

If HPA passes, the price of cans will tank so hard these companies will have to cut half their staff. $1000-2000 suppressors will be a thing of the past. You'll be able to get titanium and stainless suppressors for a third of what they cost now. NFA keeps the market on lockdown so they can keep their prices high.
>>
>>34297915

This will definitely be the case.

Imagine if they got rid of the NFA and we could make and sell new machineguns on the civilian market....
>>
>>34296547
This.
Another comparison I use is the price of Solvent Traps. Before the ATF started cracking down on them you could get very good machined titanium solvent traps for $300, plain aluminum versions for $100. You can still get stainless K baffle stacks on ebay for $120 and full titanium tubes for $200. Probably more but I just did a quick search without a ton of digging. All of these little operations that popped up selling solvent traps would simply drill a bore and sell it as a suppressor.....and they wouldn't charge a 300% markup for it. There is no reason other than increased profit to charging $800-2000 for $100 worth of machined metal.

to add, its a buyers market, theres already a good number of companies offering a wide variety of suppressor options, the market is pretty packed, and with companies like KAC opening up to more distributors (KAC is now on RSR, which is a MASSIVE distributor and the one i buy from 1-6 times a day) you can get pretty much anything and the additional rebates/incentives offered by either the manufacturer or through shops like silencershop, suppressors are now more than ever readily available to consumers, yet they arent buying em

this is MURDERING suppressor companies, and yes while sales will hugely increase immediately after the HPA passes (if it does, that is) it will not be permanent, some more savvy individuals who already have suppressor collections will not want to buy into post HPA suppressors because they already have suppressors and will be more willing to wait out the lack of supply in order to purchase at a lower price point once the market has flooded to hell and back (which will happen without a doubt)

the morons who have waited for HPA will now begin to bitch and moan that they cant buy the suppressor they want, despite being told for the last 9 months that they should have bought a suppressor to begin with if they wanted it as the law taking effect would be longer than the tax stamp wait, and have more likely than not also been forewarned of the potential increased demand; they will then complain that they have to wait for the suppressor they want to be back in stock despite not complaining about waiting for the HPA to pass

if it does pass, im logging into my RSR account from home and snagging a ton of shit

how do things work in countries where suppressors are legal? are companies just diversified and making suppressors alongside lots of other stuff?

Nigga you dumb. Criminals use sawn off shotties all the damn time. You really think Big Brother saying "that will be $200 and a 6-9 month wait to use that hacksaw on your gun" has ever stopped a determined scumbag with a gun and saw.

Grow up dipshit.

Gun control leading to tyranny is not a conspiracy theory. It's historical fact. The list of state sponsored mass murder that is preceded by some form of arms control is legion. I wouldn't expect a statist to allow discussion of such to go unchallenged by the "omg ur a nutjob for bringing up a historically significant point" though. I understand you don't have rational counter arguments that can offset the historical evidence that state monopoly of violence is the greatest enabler of evil.

That's not their problem, their problem is that there would be a whole lot more competition because there would be less regulations and it would be easier to enter the market.
they'll have to drop prices to compete and won't gain any customers because there will be other companies sucking up all the new customers.

Are you actually dumb enough to think that they'd outsell titans like ruger who would outproduce them 1000x within a year?

Where you just shooting at paper? I feel like the fun of the p90 would be taken away by being constrained in a gun range. You want to play with the maneuverability shoot multiple reactive targets etc. It'd be worth shredding some bowling pins and ar500 targets if you could set them up on blm land and run around and shit. Must be fun as fuck in a carbine course. I could see it sucking just standing still, shooting at paper straight ahead. Them again so would most guns, that's why I bought steel for that sweet ping.
P.s. running around with it putting it through use gives you confidence in the reliablity of a weapon.

Which brings another thing to mind. How hardy is it? Most people that carry it are like secret service no? Its not like it gets carried in deserts or jungles, there's no torture/reliability tests though blowback should be solid.
Ian and karl should mudtest this bitch. The only thing we have is the carnikcon ps90 video.

The percentagw of crime commited by niggers compared to other races is not insignificant. The truth hurts snowflake. The fact that you love in a dreamworld where laws stop people who break the law makes you look uneducated.

>>34295694
Assuming I can get a second source on this, I'm surely not buying anything from SilencerCo then.

The NFA does nothing to prevent silencers from getting into the hands of criminals that a background check would not also do. The only difference is wait time.

The real reason he doesn't want it to pass is because it's going to force prices down into the realm of reality.

Go fuck yourself asshole. You're the reason why shooting spots on national forest land get trashed then eventually closed down. Probably the same type of low IQ moron who leaves hundreds of empty red hulls on the ground without giving a second thought to the fact that they're going to sit there for years.
>>
>>34302860
not the same anon, but the reason crime from all races isn't committed with nfa items is because of their inherent expense, which is only a by product of regulation. If they were low-cost, and regulated they would still be available illegally. The prohibitive factor for criminals is total cost, because that cost is their "overhead", the commiting crime for profit, not beacuse it's easy or fun (hopefully, those are the fucks you need to shoot)
>>
>>34303018
That's absolute nonsense. I can make a reusable (not an oil filter) good quality suppressor for 150 in parts with no regulatory hurdle from parts easily obtainable from any auto parts store.

If what you were saying were true, they would already be in use.

Why would anyone care if some nut shoots up a place with a suppressor. People are going to find out real quick that the reports are going to be heard just the same. And honestly nothing is stopping someone right now from doing the same thing, a waiting period and passing the exact same background checks means nothing to the kinds of people who want to kill.

Okay? I don't really care, and after talking to the company I wish I could delete the thread.

Yeah because niggers can't nigger-rig an oil can on the front of their glock40s.
Niggers can't saw down a shotgun or rifle
Niggers can't break the law.

GTFO
>>
>>34296001
No it doesn't. Before the NFA passed the use of fully automatic weapons and short barreled shotguns in crimes was almost zero, and the numbers did not change after its passage.

Common criminals don't like fully automatic rifles because they don't know how to handle them properly and usually end up shooting themselves or one of their buddies; they are also bulky and difficult to conceal. They don't like short barreled shotguns because they are also hard to conceal and are more difficult to handle for inexperienced shooters.

Organized crime still makes use of weapons on the NFA list at the rate they always did, which has always been rare, but way more common than the average street thug.

The NFA purely exists to keep a disparity between the average citizen, who will take time to learn to shoot properly and invest in good non-concealable equipment, and the military and police.

>His reasoning was that if it passes suppressors will be too widely available and will become commonly used in crime, prompting a government crackdown that will put SilencerCo out of business.
Silencerco has had more or less a monopoly on the suppressor business for years, so I think he's just worried that he won't have a job if the HPA passes.
>>
>>34295694
I'm openly against the HPA because it's a shit bill. What we need is a bill that removes the words silencer/suppressor from any federal legislation, not one that takes them from being Title II "firearms" to Title I "firearms".
