    Cool!
    I’ve got a Sandman-K in jail right now.
    Would be cool to compare ‘em side by side at the range

    They’re addicting...I see more in your future

    SureFire makes it a pain in the ass to order suppressors, so the 40% discount code was not doable for the socom can. Justin helped immensely with my decision on the DeadAir. Read some reviews on them as well.

    I suspect I will be very happy. In a few months, lol

    Was just about to ask about that.

    Glad you got something though, you’ll have fun (eventually).

    I have read really great reviews on the Sandman. The majority of its work will be with subsonic 30-30( although I may try some Leverevolution to see how much is reduces the bark) I was told that it could be used on everything from .300WM to .223/5.56.

    Now I really want a .22lr can.

    We should have done the same with bump stocks.

    IMO most folks with a fudd gun or 2 dont care about the guys with a "few more" than them, or the ones that like those evil black rifles. I think back then with all the gangsters totting violin cases with tommy guns most "common" folk were scared of getting mowed down in public.
    Just my .02

    I agree with that man. The feds scored an easy one there

    I can't get over folks not wanting to pay $200 and wait the 10 +- months.

    Suppressed Is the only way to fly. it's worth $200

    10 months is coming whether you want it to or not. Time waits for no man.

    I’ve been buying a new can every time I get one out of jail. Taking something home makes the wait slightly more bearable

    For me, it's a combination of the cost and the waiting. $400-$600 for the suppressor, $200 for the stamp. And then I have to wait almost a year to use it. Hell, I don't know if I'll be alive in a year at my age. And what makes a low end suppressor cost as much as a low end AR anyway?

    I'm happy for you young guys who can afford the long wait and still have time to get some use out of it once the stamp arrives. i should have started the process years ago, but I was pretty much in fudd mode until a few years ago.

    That has been the one reason I have held out for so long. Buy something paid in full and have to wait for permission to take possession of it.

    If you buy from a local shop they may allow you to pay for it over time while it is in jail. That may not be quite as painful.

    If you plan to have several stagger the purchases so you have stamps coming in every few months or so.
