The deregulation of suppressors will not only be “neighborly” as described above, remove a black market, and also be safer for the user and those nearby. I would be remiss if I did not ask Halden if murder is not successfully regulated in her opinion, one of the oldest laws in recorded history on the books. One such instance lead to the arrest of a New Jersey man that thought he was purchasing fuel filters, but instead they were incomplete suppressors, and landed him in hot water. If someone wants to get a suppressor, they can do so very easily, in some cases all one needs to do is be scrolling through their social media page. The lack of proliferation of suppressors is falsely stated, with a black market that is flourishing on the internet. Silencing shots would not fit the modus operandi of a terrorist. “Mass shootings”, whichever definition one chooses to elect to use are usually gang related or so deigned to be acts of terror. I think we’re comparing apples to oranges here. That law has been successful and it shouldn’t be undone,” she states. “That is because they are successfully regulated. “And that’s because they were used to terrorize people, and they still can be.”Īccording to Halden, mass shootings occur almost daily now, and you never hear about a mass shooting with a silencer. “They’ve been trying to deregulate silencers for several years now and we are opposed to that, and the reason is that silencers have been successfully regulated since 1934… During that time, silencers and machine guns were regulated, and if you wanted to own one, you have to undergo a background check and you have to be fingerprinted and the government has to know that you have one,” she explains. Nancy Halden, Communications Director at the Gun Violence Prevention Center, disagrees.
Beyond Senator Bob Menendez and Representative Bonnie Watson Coleman’s cleverly named HEAR Act, posing to outlaw these items, there was further outcry by anti-freedom zealots, as reported: Not everyone is pleased by this prospect though. Brit riflemen want to be neighborly, and that consideration may prove important in preserving the rights they still have. Plenty of rural country remains, but most is home to small farms and scattered residences so that shooting and hunting necessarily occur within earshot of others. The reason UK shooters are so keen on moderators really boils down to common sense and courtesy…Even with the small calibers, UK shooters are quite concerned about controlling noise, and thus their reliance on suppressors.
Believe it or not, the UK actually does a better job of regulating suppressors than the United States, as a 2014 American Rifleman article pointed out: The onerous paperwork and tax associated with the procurement of suppressors, and outright prohibition of them in some states, really does need to be overhauled. Suppressors can lower those decibels to a level that is still dangerous to hearing, but much less. The sound that emits from a gun shot is over one million times louder than that of normal conversational speech. Suppressors make firearms less dangerous. Not a mythical “common sense” that exists only in freedom hating Utopian society, but real common sense like “glowing cherry red metal is hot”.
When so-called common sense gun laws are discussed, honestly, the deregulation of silencers or suppressors fall into that category. The House companion legislation is sponsored by Rep. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Mike Lee (R-Utah), and John Cornyn (R-Texas) this week introduced the Silencers Helping Us Save Hearing Act of 2021 (SHUSH Act), a bill to eliminate the unnecessary regulation of suppressors. From a press release, we have the following: The SHUSH Act was introduced in the last congress, and it was announced on Apthat it is being introduced again. Last week Tom Knighton reported on democrats’ push to outlaw silencers and now we’re talking about renewed efforts to deregulate silencers. The dichotomy between the two major parties is borderline laughable, particularly when it comes to the right to keep and bear arms.
