Supressors in many parts of eurpoe are mandatory for sound polution. They must fall over laughing at the sheer stupidy of our guberment restricting them based on hollywood movies thinking their family would be shot dead in the next room or right nex tot them while they sleep. You should go look up the minutes and records of the sheer utter bs that was used to restrict them. Consider auto opening knives two pieces of wood connected by rope.
Its so much utter idiocy when everytime a criminal, which by defintion is someone that does not follow the law, does something illegal, our idiots in office respond by making more restrictive laws that again are something criminals do not and will not by definition follow. Thus the only ones restricted are those that follow the laws and were not the threat to begin with. We have lawyers and their industry to that for it.
Please don't get me started !?!
But none of this is about public saftey or the childern but all about ensuring and increasing power and control.
