Title: Suppressor (and it's many use's)
Post by: A-FIXER on September 26, 2010, 10:41:31 PM
I yet to not have enjoyed the results of it, today as I was able to aquire many more P-DOGS. As with the distances of 250 to 425 yrds and without the report of the normal varmint rifle bark.. the suppressed report of the .204 and .223 rewarded us with a fine day of manymore shots of the little pest and as they did not search for cover unknown to them as the dirt splashed around them on missed shots with the inqusitive search they were looking for any understanding to what was causing the dirt to fly around them and then their fate was sealed above ground with attaboys from our small band of eager shooters awaiting the next set of shooter. Was a blast and looking forward to our next outing....

Glad you finally embarked on one of the most addictive shooting activities Dan. Who threaded your barrels?

One thing I will say after shooting my AR last night with a Yankee Hill Phantom Suppressor that I bought from Exeter Arms, the gas buster charging handle does not direct all the gas away from your eyes. After 10 successive hits on  the 8 inch plates at 100 yards, my eyes were watering from the fumes. Suppressors direct more gas back into an AR action, a piston upper would be fantastic.

KENT KELLY Burwell, AJ Guns Columbus, and Omaha Gun and machine, have done work for me and I yet to try the fella you know in York. I will have to get with you as an near senior citizen I can not place where I put that phone# but ALL above listed did great work and did not affect my barrel crown that would affect my accuracy....I have not had any issues with it on the AR- but as I have been focusing on my long distance targets and the range.

It is time suppressors were taken off the NFA list. They are a very useful tool to combat hearing loss with shooters. This has to be done on a federal level, time to plant a bug in a few senators and congressmans ears.

A $200 tax stamp plus a minimum of $250 for a suppressor to protect your hearing is stupid.

Yes to that I do believe the NFOA should maybe use this posting as to a process of presenting this to our NEBR SENATORS in Washington D.C. to enable our sport and as many housing subdivisions are getting created to the shooting ranges this would be in favor of quiet sunday morning for those who live near those ranges... just an idea but again Scott you got another great idea to keep this Right and sport.

Suppressors are a great thing, not because I sell them. The reason that I sell them is because they are a great thing. I wear hearing aids because of my long term exposure to the M16/M4 rifle. I don't want this for my kids. My children never shoot unsuppressed. My 10 year old daughter has a Walther P22 with a YHM Mite suppressor, she has had since she was 6 years old. She has never heard that weapon without a can on it. We carry the largest selection and the largest inventory of suppressors in the state. With over 200 suppressors in stoch we mostlikely have one that will serve your needs. Our new store, tentatively scheduled to open in February, will continue our dedication to educating the population on the legalities and the usefulness of suppressors while providing the best selection and expert advice in the region.
