Lisle Carbines shooting subsonic 45ACP are not much louder than a cap gun

Subsonic equals no sonic crack. I think a lot of the anti gun people have it embedded in their heads that just by adding a suppressor you could walk through a supermarket shooting it up and know one would be the wiser.

I have to admit. This comes as a bit of a surprise...but, a rather welcome one.

Just laws based on ignorance, created by people who think silencers make guns basically noiseless, like some kind of movie. It's still loud. Also has nothing to do with anything regarding anyone getting shot.

Ignorance
Mendacity.

"silencers" and Machine guns prove that the anti gun movement is not about crime control or stopping when the restrictions basically eliminate crime-but rather bans and harassment. Buying a suppressor or MG requires a 10 month wait, background checks, fingerprints, and at one time, the arbitrary approval of a Chief of police. Yet gun banners passed the Hughes Amendment and now want to ban suppressors. That should educate anyone who is still stupid enough to believe that "crime control" is what the gun control movement cares about.

How about both with a big side helping of fear.

good point-most of the followers (pawns and low information supporters) of the anti gun movement tend to fear things-in my experience, it is often a fear of blacks with guns (I cannot count how many white upper class suburban housewives have told me that "people like you with guns don't bother me BUT.....). at the leadership levels, they don't fear criminals with guns-they fear the voting power of the NRA and gun owners. And in some countries, despots fear armed resistance.

Obessives have been harassing the families of murdered small children because they think Sandy Hook--- and other mass shootings--- are a "government plot to take the guns" for years.

You have no room to talk about ignorance

Nice straw man there since I have not said anything of the sort. So find someone who actually made such a claim on another thread and then whine about what they said. I do believe that anti gun extremists do welcome some mass killings so they can use the deaths of innocents to advance their gun banning goals. But I have never said that Sandyhook was instigated by the government: indeed, I have taken issue with CT clowns who claimed that some of the mass shootings at schools were perpetrated by people other than the defendants or dead (Lanza) shooters.

Which does not change the fact that many others have. You lot’s obsession means there is no length you won’t go to, including threatening the families of murdered little kids over paranoid fantasies about government plots. It is beyond despicable.
 
I don't know why this is being brought up has something we need to talk about and regulate.

It seems like people watch too many movies.

A suppressor is a form of muffler just like what you have on your car that makes it not as loud. it doesn't silence anything out of the term silencer is inappropriate.

It isn't like the movies or video games
