John, I don't know about the suppressors in IA. First I had heard it was under consideration was here on the 'campfire in the general forum. They certainly make sense in some ways but seem a bit impractical in others; I.e, I understand they are quite expensive and I'm certainly not going to have every barrel I have threaded for one should they become legal. I do have a Ruger MK ll 22/45 that is threaded and I certainly would get one for that.

Finally, aesthetically, what looks to be a soup can on the end of a barrel must be an acquired taste. grin

Back to the subject; the scenery is indeed stunning!
