The onerous restrictions on suppressors created a serious public health issue.

So... a suppressor makes a gun go from “Bang!” to “psheeew” like in the movies, right?

I don’t have a lot of time around silencers but at best they reduce a bang to a .22 pop.

from “silenced” revolvers to gasoline tanks blowing up when hit by a bullet, Hollywood has been a bad education tool.

Prior to this they wrote legislation based on crap they saw in a James Bond movie.

The Legislators all thought they worked like the ones in TV and Movies.

It’s either Norway or Finland where, I believe, use of a “silencer” is REQUIRED.

I don’t have any experience with suppressors but it sounds like your comparison is in keeping with the details in the article. I’m just appreciative that there was some actual education going on with the lawmakers so they’re not crafting junk legislation based on Hollywood dramatizations that have no bearing in the real world.

Yeah, I say a movie with a revolver with a silencer. Like the sound doesn’t have about a million places to leak out of.

I think the current class 3 laws would be an excellent vehicle for breaking into local politics. Run for county sheriff and promise to sign off on any class 3 requests to anyone in the county who donated a minimum of $1 to your campaign. Then take your bargain to the local sportsmans clubs, gun shops, shooting ranges, etc.

Take the muffler off of my bike- I'm illegal.
Put a muffler on my gun- I'm illegal.

Hollywood has been a bad education tool.It has actually been a great education tool for the progressive/Communist movement. 51% get their news and values from TV and movies.
