In fact, many gun owners are frankly not comfortable with our existance - as shown by the many negative responses we all read about over and over from "guys at the gun range" or range officers who call the local police the 1st time they see a supressor in use.
Imagine if every gun owner out there was familiar enough with supressors that they understood they are lawful to own?
Imagine if they also understood that we, the Title II owning community, had ALL gone through background checks and were under far more strenuous registration requirements than most guns owners, and our guns were almost vever involved in crimes? Maybe they would even want to own one lawfully.
The problem is that NFA is so insignificant due to laws that have been put in place.
If there was no NFA/Hughes amendment, ever AR15 sold in every store would be select fire and have a 14.5" barrel and nobody would think anything different because there wouldn't be anything different.
