Only five miles? You might have to spray for mall ninjas. Personally I would be torn. I would expect a lot of overpriced crap done up in digital cammo. On the other hand, the sheer entertainment value might be worth the price of admission.

 LOL!  If you can tell me which chemical to use, I'd like to set out a few traps in every indoor shooting range I've ever visited.  Pretty sure they go there to reproduce.   :-\


"Tactical Gear Expo".  Why do I envision a LOT of airsoft stuff at such an event?   :-\

This is in conjunction with a Blade show and I'm going because of the C3 Defense.  They make AR lowers and now silencers.   They're also a GA company located just one county west of me....Dallas, GA 

I suspect that what we'll see is a lot of survival stuff.

The wife is interested in putting some survival food aside and I'm looking at ccw holsters, silencers and maybe a blade or two.

OK, repeat after me - boxes that hold cartridges in guns are called magazines, not clips, and cans that suppress the sound of the gun firing are called suppressors, not silencers.   ;)

I know that Alf knows better, but who of us hadn't been attacked by the Haz for clipping  ;D

I'll take exception to this.   I've never liked the term suppressors.   It always sounds like being politically correct in trying to avoid what it really is......a silencer.   It may be in vogue at the present and I won't object to those who use it.
I'll stand with the federal statues which call the device a silencer.  The only reference I can find to suppressor is in regards to FLASH suppressor.

From the Gun Control Act  of 1968 TITLE 18, CHAPTER 44 SECTION  921(a)24 says:

Quote

The terms "firearm silencer"and "firearm muffler" mean any device
for silencing, muffling, or diminishing the report of a portable firearm,
including any combination of parts, designed or redesigned, and intended for
use in assembling or fabricating a firearm silencer or firearm muffler, and any
part intended only for use in such assembly or fabrication.

You go Alf! PC in all its forms pisses me off, and sometimes we are as bad as the other side. The only time its justified is when using the wrong term, like "automatic," creates confusion whether deliberately or through ignorance. When it comes to suppresors, silencers, mufflers, cans, or whatever its all the same.

"muffler", while correct, doesn't sound NEAR as cool as "silencer".  Ore even "suppressor".  Lets start "Stealth Keg" as a trend!

Get it used in a movie, and that's IT!  ;)  (How dorks around the world learned to call nitrous oxide "Noss")  ::)




Don't forget, there are no laws against owning or using a "Stealth Keg"!
