don't get caught with a home made silencer...

Not hard. Just highly illegal and not worth the risk.
And not really silencers. Just suppressors.

One more thing I liked about my Aimpoint PRO...when I installed it, I was able to get it bore-sighted by simply looking thru the iron sights and adjusting the red dot so that it was right on top of the front post. So when I got to the range I was already pretty close to dead-on at 50 yards and I didnt have to waste a lot of time and ammo getting it dialed in.

No strong argument for banning them. They just got caught up with machine guns in 1934

Still a kill shot at that range for sure with that weapon and I applaud you, but not my definition of "insanely accurate" sorry just my opioin.

Which is a very bad idea as they are easily obtained legally through proper channels.

They already are. My buddy has two of them,one 22, one 9mm quite impressive if you ask me.

Not insane but amazing for that rifle and scope combination.
I have shot better but with bolt actions designed for target/varmints.
I have a .220 Swift that will shoot quarter inch groups and an XP100 pistol in .223 that will shoot half inch groups.
My mini-14 at 100 yards would be more like 2-3 inch groups. It was never intended to be a target rifle though.

Did he have to pay the $200 tax for each?
They were never totally banned. Just highly regulated.

I don't remember the exact way it was done but basically paid some lawyer to set up a trust for a small fee and once that was done they(seller)sent him the supressors. Now everyone just goes through the trust so no waiting period.

You set up a trust because that way you could still loan it to friends and family. Otherwise it would be illegal for anyone else to shoot your suppressor equipped rifle.
I forget the rest of it but for legal reasons you should set up a trust. You only need to do it once and its still good if you get more suppressors.

I just asked him he said it was around $700 for everything not including the price of the suppressor.

It put 3 shots into a group the size of a quarter. 2 of the shots almost went in the same hole. I generally sight my guns in about 2" high at 100 yards, so that out to about 250 yards I can hold to point of aim and shoot. So yes, my group is about 3" to the right but that was due in part to the wind

Wouldn't looking at the old Anarchist's Cookbook get you on some sort of list?

That has been available in free e-books for a long time.
I have it saved somewhere.
The proposed HPA, would eliminate the $200 tax stamp and trust cost

I will be informing the authorities.
