Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters What is allure of suppressors?

Was the Element new when you bought it? If not, how many rounds have you fired through it?

I've got an AAC Aviator I wish could be disasembled for cleaning.

Sometimes folks just don't know what they don't know.

Two examples:

1. My brother has an AAC M4-2000 that he can use legally for hunting in his state. I got him an AAC brake and a threaded 10-22 barrel for Christmas few years back. He bitched to me about it being as noisy as his 6920 was when he was shooting PDs with it suppressed. I asked him what ammo he was shooting, "CCI Mini-Mags" says he. I explained what was happening. "Oh..."

2. Today at an Academy near here I was mulling ammo and two gun newbies older than me (55) were explaining handgun loads to a chubby granddaughter or third wife and bemoaning the lack of white box .357 "practice ammo" loaded with FMJs like all the .38 loads...I didn't explain it to them.

Here we explain, encourage and even offer ammo to folks. Some like the OP, however, reveal themselves beyond hope due to their ingrained gov.org sensibilities.
