There must be some profit in there somewhere made by someone... Or the fact that it further inhibits our ability to flex our 2nd Amendment muscles as intended. or Both.

But 15" barrels a much more deadlier than 16" barrels!!!! As dumb as they are I wouldn't mind 16" barrels and semi autos as long as I could get a suppressor at Wal-Mart or something without sending $200 and paperwork off and waiting months to get it. We have to have mufflers on our cars but we can't have them on guns? WTF? **** blows my mind.... Who the hell makes all these ridiculous and complicated laws anyway, they sure are douche bags.
you can blame the 1934 NFA for the regulation of silencers. And blame FDR as well as the mafia and the St. Valentines day massacre. They put silencers on the NFA act to discourage poachers supposedly.
