Why do people still fall for the suppressor meme? $500 for a can, plus $200 stamp to dog killers who hate you, all so your gun can still be loud as shit? People at the range laugh at you behind your back. It's a respect net-loss. And you paid for the privilege.

For every one person who's paid for the NFA item, there's ten who got one anyway and didn't give a shit about contacting the ATF.

Also, you can legally manufacture and keep full-autos in your home, so long as they have a serial number and you're not selling them.

Yep, sub sonic is quieter than a whisper.

>>
>>29735449
We are talking about reducing noise levels, and nowhere did i say "well golly, add those two together and you'll be shootin quieter than a mosquito fart!"

There are a lot of people that dont understand that there are two reasons for guns being so loud
>>
>>29735408
The quietest silencers with sub sonic ammo that aren't wet are still in hearing damage range. When they start getting into the 110-125 db range not wet I'll consider getting one.

Not to mention having to get a threaded barrel and raised sights.

What is the actual purported point of silencers? Like you said, it's still loud as fuck and I'm pretty sure it's not good for your ears. And every deer within a 5 mile radius is still going to scatter at the sound of a suppressed shot.
>>
>>29736064
Not going instantly deaf if you have to shoot without plugs/ being able to shoot without plugs.
>>
>>29735261
>>29735761
Y'all aren't necessarily wrong but it is important to increase the visibility of silencers in public hands. Just like guns, a lot of the reason gun grabbers are hesitant to come for them is that there are already so many in circulation.
>>
>>29736190
Can you really safely shoot those things without earpro though?
>>
>>29735231
You sure that's a p&w? Looks more like a clausing.
>>
>>29736064
>What is the actual purported point of silencers?
Not being a loud-ass jerk (neighbour friendly)
Recoil reduction
Sound reduction

>loud as fuck
Nah. Not compared to unsuppressed, and if you're shooting subsonic, it can be vewy qwiet.

>scatter at the sound of a suppressed shot.
Not always, but if they do, in what direction? Even supersonic, they are unable to instantly pinpoint the direction. Sometimes they will look around. Many times they will bolt, but not always directly away from you like when being obnoxious (unsuppressed).

It's OK if you can't afford one. No shame.

It is shameful to play sour grapes though.

>we need to meem be meme maymay

With a non-shit can, yes. Pretty much anything 338LM and below can be "hearing safe" per OSHA standards with a decent suppressor.

Yeah I guess the Seals, Delta, and MARSOC are all fucktards who don't know what their doing using something so useless as a supressor.

Thank you god overlord op for your meme knowledge, and overall expertise in operating.
>>
>>29735801
It will flatten your trajectory a bit as well, the velocity boost will diminish bullet drift while offering some noise reduction, flash suppression etc...More barrel won't necessarily provide better velocity and accuracy in certain cases....Youve never used a can before...have you?

I fucking hate this so much. I refuse to pay for a cuckstamp, bad enough I had to spend $100 on my carry permit.
>>
>>29736490
If a can will add velocity, more barrel will do it better.

>noise/muzzle flash
Not something that really matters in long range shooting.
>>
/k/, is >>29735201 right? About the full auto thing?
>>
>>29736870
Constitutionally yes. Legally no according to the feds
>>
>>29736738
Uh no.
26'' barrels are less accurate past 500 when shooting 7.62x51; 20+ inch barrels in 5.56 platforms cause velocity drop offs. to name a few.
Harmonics get a little weird sometimes with different calibers. I really don't care to go into detail with you about this but if we treat your statement like a hypothesis, the positive being a longer barrel inherently means better accuracy/precision, the negative being it does not and the null being neither, we have to accept the null; in some cases, in some calibers it does not. My supposition based upon my experience is that a suppressor can squeeze out a bit more velocity in certain calibers that I use better than an extra 6-12 inches of barrel.
>>
>used to think cans were the shit
>then I started doubling up electronic plugs with electronic muffs
>every single gunshot from .22lr to .50bmg sounds like a mousefart
Now granted, I keep an omega on my HD rifle, because putting on earpro in a defensive situation isn't always viable.
>>
>>29735583
Those moved goalposts, though...
>>
>>29737075
>because putting on earpro in a defensive situation isn't always viable.

literally what is putting earpro on your stock
>>
>>29737131
It's a nice idea in principle and I try to keep the two together, but life doesn't always flow that smoothly. It takes two seconds to put earpro on, one second to turn it on. If you're not fumbling around like a retard in the dark, which you're statistically likely to do.

If you can make it work do it, if it's going to compromise the situation at hand forgo it. Simple as that. A can removes the variable altogether.

I love my suppressors. I could never live without them. They make pretty much any firearm you put them on more pleasant to shoot. Being able to shoot many guns without earpro and no EEEEEEE is awesome. They are also handy for new shooters, less boom.

>bu bu but, now the government knows you own guns!!1! You are on a registry!
They know that already. If you got background checked, then they know. Don't be naive.

>why would you ever give the scumbags at the ATF money?
They get your money anyways. It's called taxes. Besides, I only plan on owning 4 or 5 suppressors throughout my entire lifetime. That comes out to like $11 a year.

>but suppressors are expensive.
You gotta pay to play. There are cheap options available though. You can get started on a rimfire one (hands down the most fun) for less than the price of a handgun. I have also seen basic direct-thread stainless steel cans for like $450+200.

300 BLK is around 120dB suppressed.

It is definitely a Pratt & Whitney, don't have a shot of the label handy but here's the controls.

I wonder if it's actually cheaper to buy a lathe and make your own suppressor (just out of curiosity) than to buy a pre-built one?
