[QUOTE="GeorgeS, post: 1622971, member: 107925"] I think the best answer to that is to take a look at the actual Magicland - Europe - where suppressors are not condemned, but rather encouraged, not to annoy people with the loud crack of a rifle, and as a defense against hearing loss. It's considered rude to shoot without using one, just as it is to drive a car about without a muffler. No tax stamp, freely available, and sold in quantity with competition, so that the normal rules of free trade apply. Some .22 models are available for about $50 US equivalent (the A-Tec Wave); higher end stainless steel centerfire models in the 250-300 Euro range. Here, limited production and trade restraint through the NFA make them a cottage industry product, and Adam Smith's rule applies on price. Especially since you can roll your own if $50 is too high. The HPA was supposed to open the door to the market, but it hasn't made it out of committee. [/QUOTE]
