Chicago City Council Votes Like North Korea : 48-0 to Allow Only 1 Gun Purchase A Month. In other news, Norks can own guns? No, they can’t. They’re commies.

Comparing search results. The thing I find more interesting is that AR-15 is substantially more popular than gun rights or gun control searches. I’m guessing people like guns but don’t care about the politics.

Mentioned a company that did that a while back. Well, here’s* a list of potential cons:

If it is a center fire can, it will probably rattle after you shoot it as you can’t get the parts together tight enough with special tools.

It may very well mess up the accuracy of the suppressor,and your POI shift may vary after each dis-assembly session. And if you put it back together really wrong, you may destroy the can, or send bullets flying off in really wrong directions

If you don’t take it apart every 10-20 rounds, you may not be able to get it apart, unless you use lots of antiseize lube all over the threads and internal parts, and now guess what? You are shooting a “wet” can with all that lube. There are gobs of “take apart” cans out there that are permanently sealed because they weren’t taken apart often enough.

You will need special tools to hold the can, and be able to wrench the end caps off once fired. It isn’t simply unscrewing the caps off like opening an aspirin bottle.

Unless you wear latex gloves and a respirator mask, you are going to expose yourself to a lot of body soluble lead

There is a reason most manufactures seal their cans, and it isn’t to make a profit by having you send them in for service.

Anyone have experience with jailbreaking one?

Seems the ATF is going to actually check sound suppressors to make sure they suppress sound. Novel idea.

I also hate the standard template on some variation of “the top 5 best/worst things in the world and why they are awesome/suck.” These should just be called “the top 5 things I feel like talking about right now because I need content”.

Jinkies, HK VP9 90 Second Gun review, by Shaggy Rogers.

And, also, bear in mind bullets go far:

A new father in Florida was killed by a stray bullet that traveled more than 200 feet from a neighbor’s house and hit him in the back of the head.

It was a 9mm. And it was “accidentally” discharged.

Remember back in the day, you’d buy your 22LR pistol so that you could practice your hand-gunning a bit more cost effectively. Well, now that 22LR is so expensive, there’s a laser trainer for your trainer:

LaserLyte®, innovators in firearms laser technologies, announces the new LT-LR Laser Trainer for .22 caliber firearms. LaserLyte® listened to their customers and fans and developed their latest laser trainer to accommodate the most popular firearms caliber on the market today; the .22 caliber. This new laser trainer fits on all .22 caliber weapons by mounting in the barrel and a sound activated switch shows the bullet’s impact with a laser dot. Every time the firearm’s hammer or striker fires, the small laser dot will flash for 100 milliseconds, simulating bullet impact.

Note also the countries that have had coups and gun ownership.

Susie Madrak:

at what point does the federal government literally go to war with its own citizens? Because we’re not talking about bank robbers here, we’re talking about (mostly) non-criminal cranks — scofflaws and political malcontents. So what line has to be crossed in the good old U.S. of A. before we start mowing them down to make our point?

Supposedly violent gun nuts are the one the tolerance and diversity crowd are pondering a war with.
