Suppressors make shooting safer (for your ears). I don’t have a problem with this or SBS and SBRs.
The tax stamp was just an extra piece of bureaucracy that delayed acquisition and put you out an extra $200 per device. All purchases still go through a background check.
Not only that but the fact that anti-gunners here, acted like suppressors some how make a firearm more dangerous was just bullshit. All you had to do was look at countries with super strict gun control and see that they were required for most shooting purposes. NZ and the UK being the two were you're required to run them for certain areas.
Fuck trump and this SCOTUS but the left needs to stop with the bullshit gun control quip and focus on what will actually have a change to our societal violence.
We need more people on the left to learn about firearms instead of just living in fear of them.
Just taking a firearm safety class would probably help a lot of people stop being so ignorant.
A ton of people on the left know, own, and train with firearms. It's the corporate Democrats that are scared bitches.
Unfortunately there are a lot of anti-2a people still. I have noticed a ton of LGBTQ+ who went from anti-2a to getting strapped after this admins 2nd term.
