I typically double up my hearing protection at the range (30 NRR muffs + earplugs = 35 NRR). If I'm doing my math correctly, that should come out to a db reduction of (35 - 7)÷2 = 14. With handguns at indoor ranges being ~160db, how the frack do I not have hearing loss when I'm exposed to ~146db sound every time I go to the shooting range?

OSHA standards top out at 115db, so I'm not certain what to use as a benchmark.

Not mention shooting outside. I went to an indoor range twice in my life and both times sucked, and not just because of how loud it was.

Form 4 suppressors are going to E-file soon too. So they are saying it's going to take 6-8 weeks instead of 9-12 months.

It's so retarded that you have to jump through hoops for a suppressor. In the UK it is considered rude to shoot without one. They should be integral on most guns imo.

It is retarded, but id rather jump through hoops for a can than jump through hoops for a pistol. How easy can you buy a pistol in the uk?

The UK sucks. My point is that suppressors aren't tools used by ninja assassins. They protect peoples' hearing. Suppressors on any caliber large enough to reliably kill a person is still loud as @#$@, borderline hearing safe loud.

Where did you hear this? Fuck i just did another form 4 last month.

The news has been floating around and it's on silencershops website that E-form 4 is now live. See if you can get it cancelled and refile. Tbh I don't even know if that's possible though. I'm at 380 days now from my last form 4. Bought it with my Trump Bucks.

Well fuck. Something tells me cancelling it would be a pain in the dick, make things worse, if such a thing were even possible. And really i wont need this can until november anyway. Still, fuck. 380 days is a long time. My last one took 10 months, the one before that took 11 months. No trump bucks for me, but hordes of useless niggers got them. Go figure. What i really need is a fucking can for a .444, and the guy that was going to make one special for me got some huge contract and now hes too busy. Only commercially available one ive found thats not a damn brick is the wilson combat whisper .458 can, and ive been on an email notification a long time, asked them about it, and got some bullshit reply that made no sense
