I can only speak to the UK. The UK equivalent to OSHA (Health and Safety Executive) essentially have a policy that reads if you are employed to use a firearm in your daily job (gamekeeper, ghillie etc) your employer must take steps to ensure your hearing is protected as far as is reasonably practicable. Ergo, using a suppressor. When I got my first firearms license in 1985, the cops virtually insisted I apply for a can for my .22. Suppressor use and ownership there is normal, expected and relatively simple. Its one of the few things about the UK I miss and that they got right.

My buddy has a suppressor manufacturing business in Germany and he's doing very well so I'm guessing its not that hard in mainland Europe either. Finland both makes and sells a ton of cans so probably not that difficult there. Only in the US could you get hammered on pricing for items that elsewhere are simply disposable, just like a rifle barrel so are much less expensive.

Picked up a gun rag to pass time while working in the U.K. in the 1990's. Was totally floored to see this ^^^^^ sentiment espoused in the various writings. Essentially, using a suppressor was described as the "polite thing to do..."

Have you ever heard of Artificial Intelligence, and progress. It will not be long until drones are fully autonomous, if some are not already. That is the goal.

Now, that you have been served your maximum allowable daily ration of education, I will only make note that humor is funniest when there is a kernel of truth in the joke.

You have been shown the kernel here numerous times.

When your audience is too dim to understand the joke, it will never be funny to him, no matter how many times it is explained.

With that acknowledgement, I give up.

Too funny. Say something really stupid and then pretend the guy who calls you out for it "just can't understand."

AI can't reliably and safely drive a delivery truck on land and you think AI will be used to pilot an F-16 and drop ordnance sometime soon.

That's hilarious.



Are you predicting the future now?

No, Idaho is predicting the future, numbnuts. I commented on the current situation.

English must not be your first language.

All I know is I have a flow through can and it’s not even close to what your pic showed. I don’t think that’s normal for DI and even old school cans. Something is not right for sure.

Re: Mule Deer and all others.....Sweden Disaster shaman 37 minutes ago
I was flying in and out of Charlotte NC on a fairly regular basis for a while. This was a set of business trips that had been unplanned and I didn't have luggage for it, so I repurposed my old range bag for the extra clothing. Every time I got in line to go home, I'd get yanked out and have my luggage swabbed.

I finally got to know the TSA dude that was doing the checks. He said that my boarding pass was being tagged by the TSA for spot checks. WT?

Then it hit me. I'd been carrying gobs of ammo, spent brass, pistols, etc. in that bag for years carrying it to the range. I mentioned it to the TSA dude. He chuckled and said I should probably find new luggage. I did before the next trip out and I never got tagged again.

Re: Sabot slugs for rifled barrel WStrayer 45 minutes ago
I have always found slug guns to individuals. Each one I have ever owned seems to have a favorite. Buy one box of a couple different ones to try. When I had a rifled barrel, I did well with the Lightfields. Recoil was heavy but I like that they were a bigger diameter slug in a thinner sabot.

Huge numbers of ""them"" are a secret international mafia and I don't mean just the rottenchild gang/group.

Jesse Kelly more-less said- most americans today are a bunch of dumbasses who don't have a clue and can't connect the dots.
When I get around people I don't know I sometimes slide a question or two their direction. I'd guess 1 in 10 is paying attention- vast majority are the chipsNdips, pepsi, nfl/tv barca lounger bunch. Their usual reaction is they sit there silent- the thought in their head is UHhhHmmUHhh blank stare.

Re: Over Reach and Control bpas105 50 minutes ago
When building our home, I had a vault door delivery where the common carrier would not enter my driveway. I worked with them by driving my pickup out to the street, backing it up to their truck, and sliding the door into my truck bed. I bit of a hassle, but better than the alternative. Might that work in your case?

I forgot to mention, I also had my smith bump the chambers out to 2-3/4” (it came 2-1/2 I think). The barrels are steel and safe with modern ammo.

Well during those times, I was spending a lot less than folks are spending now, just to lay in a small supply of something.

for those that find it, and are willing to pay those prices, Hope you enjoy having it available.

Just sad everyone is getting raped so bad on things. Glad I'm getting old and worn out, but I have my needs met for the most of my shooting career.

I done the same thing. I figured those "rats" would lie, cheat and steal their way back into power, so I started buying the supplies I would need to last the rest of my life, or to the point that I couldn't use it. I allocated all my fun money for a while, even worked more than a few OT shifts to buy supplies. There'll be no 75 dollars per lb for me!
