    It worked for Boulder PD... I could totally see this going well for the USMC! I've been told that in Europe, what little they do, hunting without a suppressor is considered inconsiderate. Let's hope and pray under R control with an R POTUS, we can get the Hearing Protection Act passed next year.

    At first, I'm thinking my credit card is going to get killed. But then I realize a lot of the cost is regulations. If the manufacturing cost of a can dropped, and no stamp required, it should drop the retail price considerably.

    I don't know that I'd have a can for each rifle/carbine/pistol but maybe one or two would be fun.

    This is how it all starts, and then you decide one more can't hurt, then you buy a suppressor without a host because you have the perfect build idea for that suppressor. It is the best drug out there!

    Suppressors won't drop in price. People already pay the price and they'll get a $200 discount from the government.

    Not initially, but if they are deregulated (removed from the ATFE purview entirely), there will initially be a shortage, then every Tom, Dick, and Bartholomew will start manufacturing them. Prices will drop, and a bunch of those guys will go bankrupt. The remaining manufacturers will move all or part of their operations to countries with friendlier labor environments, except for boutique manufacturers with a "premium" product.

    If they become as common as say a shoulder thing that goes up, I think the price would go down. The Class 2 SOT isn't much but it has had a way of limiting competition.
