It's like waiting on the Class III stamp to arrive while your gear sits in vault jail.


I got called the other day and was told my Silencerco Big Bore Harvester paperwork came in. It had been so long I practically forgot I bought one.

They also reminded me I had a couple SBR lowers and Osprey suppressor coming up soon. It's like Christmas!!!!

I've been dreaming of buying an SBR Tommy gun. The non SBR versions look out of place.

It's the one thing I hate about guns. They make you jump through hoops for the stupidest stuff, and then charge you a ****load for a gun that shouldn't cost that much.


Example: M14s, Garands, and Thompsons.

The cheapest I've come across was $1700 for an SBR Tommy not including the tax stamp.

Hard to dish out $2k for a historical replica.

I can't have any of that stuff. Damn you Illinois!

:deevee:

I'm not going to lie to you, suppressors are awesome.

I bought a Garand a few years ago. It was beautiful, and cool, and historic, but it was also a twitchy pain in the ass, required special ammo, and I was always afraid I was going to mash my thumb while loading a clip, since I never shot it enough to get comfortable with it. I kept it for about a year and then sold it - at least I got back the $1,300 I paid for it.

Got an M1A from Palmetto for about the same price, which basically has all the cool features of the Garand without the headaches. Could I have gotten a more functional AR 10 for less money? Sure. But I wanted old school coolness.

And it is a joy to shoot.

They're trying to push through a law in the state legislature that would lift the ban, but the democraps keep stalling it. I don't know if it will ever go through. But then, I never thought we'd get will-issue concealed carry here, either, so I won't give up hope.

Paid $700 for my M1 Garand from the CMP. 1942 receiver with a 1945 Barrel. Non of it is matching but it is beautiful.

Spent $200 more to throw on an authentic military stock. It came with new wood and I didn't care for it. I am in love with the gun.

I want to buy multiple suppressors, but don't want to pay a $200 tax on each and wait for several months while the ATF processes the paperwork.

I hope the Hearing Protection Act makes it though Congress and gets signed by President Trump. No more waiting, and no more $200 tax!

Keep fighting the good fight.

The day that happens is the day I buy a suppressor. My bank account will hate me.

If you ever purchase a suppressor, I strongly suggest Silencerco.


I had an "incident" which entailed a 7.62 Specwar flying off the end of my Steyer SSG04 from a bullet strike.

I don't know if it was my fault, it probably was, but Silencerco fixed it/sent a brand new one with the same serial # no questions asked.

Free.

Lifetime warranty.


They earned a customer for life through their service, not to mention their gear has top measurements in suppression in all classes.

Damn, that's a great deal.
