5sdad,
Here in Sweden not only do we have ample supplies of potato bologna, but suppressors are regarded by most people as good things too.
The jury is split on lutefisk, however.
Suppressors are seen as consideration for your neighbors, and a way to avoid hearing loss.
When I lived in Canada and the USA, I always thought that it was strange that the law treated them like something evil from a 1940's gangster movie.
I hope you get to use them in Iowa with few (or no) restrictions soon.
I do not have a supressor, but I have toyed with the idea of getting one for my .375 Ouch & Ouch -- those moose would never know what hit them!
John
