Only in Connecticut, of the other 42, is it illegal to hunt with a silencer/suppressor/gun muffler.
I’ll take it. We need to get rid of the NFA and make suppressors a shelf bought item. Right now it takes about 6 months to get a suppressor through the ATF approval process. They are legal in Europe off the shelf.
I guess the loud bang bang was scaring the snowflakes.
All laws that violate the Constitution are, by default, unconstitutional.
I’m in the process of waiting for the Feds to approve tax stamps for 2 suppressors. Today marks the 90th day for the CGS Hydra-AL wait.
The ATF went digital with their transfers form #4 and they have shortened the tax stamp approval times to 90 days, supposedly. The SilencerShop say they’ve seen the new approvals come in 7 days! The median wait however is running 124 days. Before the digital process it could take 12-14 months!
Still, too damn long, the ATF is an unconstitutional agency, what do you expect?
I expect the 2nd one will take less, I’m currently 60 days waiting for a YHM Titanium Phantom QD for my Let’s Go Brandon FJB inscribed 300 Blackout pistol. This is my next to the bed go to protection tool.
If and when the day comes I need to call it into action, I will appreciate the tactical advantage of being able to hear during and after an encounter with the bad guys. Contrary to what Hollywood says, muffled guns are not whisper quiet, but they are quieter and help you preserve your hearing.
If someone wants to pass a good ‘gun law’. Repealing § 922o would be a good start. It could be called the “common sense hearing protection bill”
