I see that they are going after the "hearing protection act" too, in spite of the fact that the people in Vegas did not recognize the gun shots until they started seeing people getting shot. It is the only time in history that I can remember people wanting to keep ear damaging equipment as loud as they can. That is certainly not true of cars, motor cycles, leaf blowers or lawn mowers. They are now trying to ban loud generators in some places. Since a suppressed center fire rifle is still 130 dB or higher these people who think it is "silent" should shut the **** up about 90 dB leaf blowers. What a wonderful name..."the hearing protection act." I don't see any problems with the current regs regarding suppressors. I got one without any fuss or muss...I bought the device, the dealer stuck it in his safe, we filed the paperwork and paid for the stamp, and I got approved. Yawn. No fuss? Create a trust, lots of paperwork. Sounds like a lot of fuss and unnecessary expense. Breathing probably is an effort for you. Nope, unlike you. No fuss, says you go down to the local gun shop, and buy one. Sort of like going to the grocery stores re and buying some Kale. |

The trust and stamp adds $300 to the cost of the suppressor, and there's a wait of about 4 months to get approved. And now you have to be fingerprinted to be in the trust for new purchases. It's a PITA. And Harry thinks this is fuss less? |

I bet by the time Harry was done with the lawyer, the county clerk and the BATF it was over $500 ($200 stamp, $250-300 for an hour with a lawyer and recording fees). There is also an active effort from the usual suspects to eliminate the "trust loophole". I owned my machine gun as an individual and it still seemed pretty cumbersome to me. That was a machine gun. Having to do the same thing for a piece of threaded pipe really seems stupid (the "can" is the regulated part) It is even dumber when you can get a 15-20 dB reduction with a 2 liter pop bottle. |

The proposed law will regulate the cans as "firearms" so there is still a 4473, background check maybe a waiting period and the ban on interstate sales if they make it like a handgun. |

No lawyer, no county clerk, no recording fees. Silencer dealer is a notary. $200 for the tax stamp. Trust document provided at no cost by the vendor...just filled in the blanks. |

Harry says is a no fuss purchase. |
