I think I've been misconstrued by a few folks in a few directions.

I think silencers are a useful safety device, and not a tool of criminal enterprise at least at their current cost. I see no reason not to be allowed to buy as many as you wish.

I also don't think that most collections of things you can just buy in a store are interesting, personally.

You have to pay the $200 tax on any suppressors you build as well as those you buy.
