SB 1098 - Disallowing regulation for certain firearm suppressor.

[ConstitutionCowboy]

Hey, if I can build my own gun, why can't I build my own suppressor? Sounds logical to me. There would be a nice big market for 80% suppressors, I bet!

They are cheap in other countries because they are disposable. They are expensive here cause they are made to last a couple of lifetimes. You don't want to go through the hassle every couple hundred rounds.

Source of your information please?

My guy told me the suppressors he bought in South Africa were the same brand and models sold in the US.
I’m sure there are disposable’s as well. Not doubting your story at all.

They cost more here due to pricing of a commodity. Remember the tales of lobster being trash food in old New England? If I could buy a can or 5 without the hassle of a trust and waiting period then I’d grab a few. As it is they regulated it to those who’ll pay the cost plus the other inconveniences.

Actually you can. But it still takes a Form 1 (or4) tax stamp approval ($200).

Wait times on those aren't too bad nowadays, comparatively speaking...last guy I know that did one got his back in 3 weeks...that was in September.

As long as there is paperwork, special tax stamp, then I am not interested!

Same with a SBR!

If the day ever comes that they do away with these stupid laws, then my interest might perk up.

But, for all intents and purposes, it isn't the same as building your own gun which doesn't require any government involvement whatsoever. When a person can build their own suppressor without any government involvement/interference, then it'll be the same as building your own gun. That is my desire sans the complete extrication of all infringements on the RKBA.

Never gonna happen. Even “conservatives” in congress will never give up a gubment revenue stream, no matter how small.
