Rep. Matt Salmon (R-AZ) has introduced the Hearing Protection Act, H.R. 3799, which restores your right to buy suppressors for your firearms.
Under Salmon’s bill, anyone who can buy a gun can buy a suppressor.
It also waives the $200 fee previously needed to get a government permission slip.
Suppressors protect the hearing of shooters, including the young and hearing impaired. They are of no value to criminals or mass shooters, and even homemade suppressors are rarely used in crimes.
They are effectively banned for one reason — because gun grabbers want to make it more difficult for gun owners to exercise their rights.
The irony of the whole situation is that items like suppressors actually increase the safety of shooters because they reduce the noise that is generated when operating a firearm.
FK – Another tiny step in the right direction…
ACTION: Contact your Representative NOW and ask him or her to co-sponsor H.R. 3799, a bill that restores your right to buy suppressors for your firearms.
This is not a column per se but a point by point response to certain issues, or the issue, that still, after all these years, seems to be missed by many. Watch the video first.
FK – We’ve had the internet for 20 years now. So it would be called ‘willful ignorance.’ There’s nothing more important than monitoring our govt. and the laws we are forced to exist under at the point of a gun. I simply can’t have any respect for those that ignore this reality.
If only the ‘No Rights that aren’t Allowed’ group would kick out its infiltrators and its idiots and do what it should: organize and help train the militias for what will be required.
The NRA was founded by Yankee generals because their conscripts in the war to continue taxing the southern states couldn’t shoot well enough. So in reality it’s been part of the problem from the beginning. It had to be dragged kicking and screaming into this war and still pretends we’ll be able to win it via elections and legislation and that the Second Amendment is the only issue. We could win the gun battle and still lose the war.
The Second Amendment doesn’t mention licensing, taxes, stamps, permission, background checks, I.D. cards, concealed carry, open carry, sporting purposes, hunting furry animals, harvesting food, and on and on. It reads “…shall not be infringed.”
If the NRA had a backbone it would be demanding every candidate publicly declare their stance on repealing all ‘gun laws.’ This is probably the most basic concept they deal with in any campaign. If they don’t ‘get it,’ what our most basic right is: the right to hunt and kill them if they work to enslave us or in our case enslave us further, they don’t have any business being an elected, hired or appointed public servant and they break their oaths as soon as they take them which should bring about a treason trial and a death sentence.
I’ve attended the machine gun shoot in Kentucky many times. In the last year or so one of the vendors said this to me(paraphrase): “This was a good event until they let all the poor people in.”
Those who have several grand invested in a machine gun might not be interested in repealing the NFA. Tough. We’re supposed to be armed equally with any infantry soldier, Marine or militiaman in the world, so we can kill them if we have to. It should be an affordable item to the common man or woman.
800,000 suppressors? That’s some good news. If they’re spread around where they’ll be available to us when enough finally come to grips with what will be required.
The NFA was never ‘needed.’ It was a power grab like all they do. As soon as the war starts they will ‘outlaw’ all those fighting it and their weapons. Does that mean we will then turn them in and go home and sit in front of the big screen and yell at Faux News?
Hunting is fun and a good skill to acquire. The upcoming primate season will be even more interesting because many of them will shoot back. Their ideology killed 200 million in the 20th century alone, so they have proven their pacifism is false. They readily vote to have the cops and soldiers they claim to hate break down their neighbors’ doors and murder them for not surrendering any more of their liberty. Yet so many are in such deep denial about the situation we face here.
Our domestic blood enemies are telling basically the same lies they were 20 years or more ago, with some minor alterations. Nothing short of the ‘compromise’ they’re always whining about, going their way, will do. Without that they are political wallflowers that in reality should be kicked out of the dance, because that is exactly what they plan for those who claim to love human Liberty.
As someone once said, “When you begin to ‘compromise’ on what you already possess, you lose.’ The only thing we should be compromising on is whether the communists, who are neither ‘liberal’ nor ‘progressive’ get one or two broken oars for the leaky rowboat we allow them to row to Europe. The no-compromise part is they GTFO of OUR country because they don’t belong here.
A stepping stone process is not necessarily bad. As many have argued it took years, decades to get to this point and it may take as long to get back to where we should be. That is not, never has been, the issue. The issue that matters is what will we do if they say ‘turn them in,’ or ‘you can’t buy anymore nor introduce children to the shooting sports,’ in so many words and a commie SCOTUS agrees?
Without an organization in place to deal with this, and the NRA’s shysters and lobbyists won’t do the trick, we are doomed, as a nation and as a so-called ‘free people.’ We will be no better than England or Australia or many other nation states. The Bill of Rights is what makes us exceptional. Without the resolve to spill blood if necessary to protect it we are spitting on the graves of the ancestors who fought to provide it.
I have long felt there is no issue more important than this.
However, SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb noted that in reaching his decision, Judge Settle acknowledged that “The Court is sympathetic to Plaintiffs in that one must actually be prosecuted or under actual or immediate threat of prosecution before the Court may address the constitutionality of a statute.” The judge further observed that “the fairness of this rule may definitely be questioned…”
“It is mind boggling that a law-abiding citizen evidently must put their civil rights, not to mention their clean criminal record, at risk before a court can rule whether a law is constitutional,” Gottlieb observed. “It is definitely unfair, and we believe every American will think it unfair that someone has to be chained and incarcerated before they are allowed to challenge an attack on their constitutional rights.
FK – There’s nothing ‘mind boggling’ about it. We’re at war. Our domestic blood enemies want us disarmed so we can’t hunt and eradicate them after enough finally see the necessity of doing so. That’s all it’s ever been about. The crime issue is a red herring, an excuse to persuade the ignorant.
FK – Why would someone that smart bother with shyster school, all that debt with no guarantee of a job?
Chuckie Schemer is the real danger. It should’ve been tried for treason and executed years ago. But ‘conservatives’ and ‘libertarians’ lack the brains to work together and the backbone necessary to form the militia force that would be necessary to do what will be required.
Now, my sights are set on 18 USC sec 922(o). This is known as the machinegun ban. I don’t believe this is constitutional in light of the Second Amendment to the Constitution. Likewise, the National Firearms Act (“NFA”), which taxes the making and transferring of Title II weapons (machineguns, suppressors, short barrel rifles, short barrel shotguns, etc) is ripe to be attacked on Second Amendment grounds.
We have the avenue to attack both the machinegun ban and the NFA with the BATFE’s recent approval of a number of Form 1s. I have a number of clients that I will be filing a lawsuit on behalf of to seek to overturn the ban and the NFA in different states.
This will be expensive. I am in the process of collecting donations to offset the legal fees in this case. If you are interested in assisting, please donate. No donation is too small. These lawsuits will be funded strictly off donations. Unlike the government, we do not have an unlimited war chest to fund this. That is where the grass roots come into play. We can do this, but we need your help!
FK – Where’s the ‘No Rights that aren’t Allowed’ group with their millions of 20 buck membership fees from the ‘little guy?’
In fact where was the NRA in 1938? Did they help stop this?
FK – It’s what they are and what they do and they should be arrested, tried for treason and executed for doing it. It’s a tax. They couldn’t constitutionally ban them so they taxed them to create another evil bureaucracy to rule over their livestock.
The ruling, signed by ATF Director B. Todd Jones on Friday, also holds that the businesses must “identify (mark) any such firearm and maintain manufacturing records,” and that Gun Control Act requirements may not be avoided by allowing persons to perform processes on machinery, tools and equipment a business controls access to. Excluded from the ruling are weapons and devices regulated by the National Firearms Act.
The effect of this ruling will be to close down operations in which persons who are legally entitled to manufacture their own firearms for personal use are permitted by a business to use its equipment, either with instruction or without. Provided such firearms are not intended to be sold or distributed, marking and record-keeping requirements do not apply. By changing the rules, ATF has closed down a means by which people who lack the equipment themselves to finish off a part will be able to exercise their right to build a firearm, a practice many rely on, particularly when completing so-called “80 percent” precursor receivers.
FK – Why is congress still funding this evil organization? Because they’re cowards and whores.
