As I have said before, friend of mine owns a big gun shop over your side of the pond.

 

He is posting an offer at the moment for Silencers aka noise suppressor. If you buy one now etc etc etc, but interestingly offering to 'hold' them for customers waiting for the 'hearing protection act'.

 

Is this a move to help disabled people?

Huge,

 

My take - but first some background. I was once an avid gun owner and user. I have, for the most part, flipped sides and now consider guns more of a threat to freedom rather than a protector of freedom.

 

Now, my take on the Legislation in our U.S. House (lower house) would loosen the rules that currently make gun silencers as hard to get as a machine gun. Legal silencers are few and far between. In 1933, right here in Kansas City, my hometown, we had a massacre at the rail Union Station. Machine guns (Tommy Guns) became illegal shortly thereafter. Today, private ownership of AR-15 - AK-47 type firearms are the rage. Legally these weapons cannot be automatic.

 

While "hearing protection" is the stated reason for allowing silencers the majority of support is, 1. from those that don't want the boogie man to know you are about and 2. it is likely the ban on machine guns will eventually be removed. You can't kill red deer unless you can discharge 2500 rounds per minute. In some instances, among our isolated supremacists a rotary cannon that can surpass up to 6,000 rounds per minute could be used for hunting hare.

 

So 1st silencers then fully automatic

Edit: clarification - couldn't hear you

You've never heard of "Pretty Boy" Floyd?

The problem isn't what people don't know, it's what they know that just ain't so.

Things might change soon anyway phone, I presume your definition of 'automatic' in legislation is similar if not the same as ours.

 

Some time ago I was discussing the AR platform rifles there, they can now retro fit an electronic trigger to the weapon, these triggers fire a single round on the pull & on the release and are electronically regulated so you can't out run the bolt.

 

It's a current hot topic as to whether or not They would then be classified as a machine gun.

 

At least if you get the silencer law passed you've more chance of getting sleep whilst the homies have a turf war.
