[QUOTE="uncle money bags, post: 2843392, member: 8377"] Im not going to give out legal advice. seek an attorney for that. As long as we are talking about an actual home defense weapon, which is one that doesnt go in a holster, then a suppressor is a plus. the added length can be an issue working around obstacles. the solution is a short barrel rifle. If an adversary wants to grab the suppressor, the easy solution is to pull back while pulling the trigger. Congrats bad guy, you just helped me shoot you center mass. Go ahead, give it a try with a broom handle; hold it like a rifle and have someone grab the end and you will see what i mean. Shooting any gun indoors is loud. In rifle calibers it is not only loud, but the concussion will ding you. Sometimes bad enough to degrade your vision and cognition. A can will take that concussion down to a manageable level, but will not make it substantially quieter to your ear when indoors. For handguns, the problem is what to do with the weapon if you have to go hands on as well as the possibility of induced malfunctions by an adversary. retention of the weapon in a hands on situation is extremely important. I cannot emphasize that enough. with a suppressed hand gun, I do not like having that much weapon being exposed while I am trying to fight off a brutus with one hand and the pistol in my other hand.
