    This isnt a particularly unreasonable example, I really can’t understand why people are mocking it. It doesn’t matter what the silencer is made from or if it works (at least half of the suppressors I have used have been totally useless), just that the person registering it claims it meets the requirements. Why would they lie?

    This is basically a guy saying “hey I told the government service set up to record blue objects that something was blue and they believed me, tee-hee” when it the something in question was a potato, painted blue. It’s just dumb.

        Well sure, if that potato is a suppressor potato. Registering suppressors is pretty absurd, no argument, that it’s a potato is not the objectionable part here.

        Having to register suppressors blue shit at all is the dumb part. They’re required safety equipment in some parts of Europe and Europeans can barely even have guns!
