With all the public pressure from "anti" groups against assault weapons and other points, how likely do you think it is that a conservative is going to stand up and make him/herself a target by "legalizing silencers on assault weapons" in Texas. And the result of all that work is no real change.

I use those quotes because that's how it will be spun.

I work with several people who have recent trusts to deal with suppressors. None of them have been stopped to the best of my knowledge, but I'll update if and when that happens.

They are more concerned with maintaining the purity of their ideology than they are with the immediate effects of those efforts on the very real lives of very real people, and on small business owners like me. They would rather see the results of another Obama term happen to the nation, than they would be willing to make certain practical adjustments to their political activities. That makes them, for all practical political purposes, identical to the hardcore leftists of the democratic party, who dismiss the concerns of real persons by saying "you have to break a few eggs to make an omelet."

And how many Texans go about every day with suppressed weapons and never get hassled? I myself have fired a friend's suppressed AR15 at Elm Fork range, with off-duty LEOs right next to me (including the rifle's owner who is with Dallas PD), with nary an issue. I think that if you keep your nose clean, you're not likely to get hassled.......unless LEOs read these pages and realize that they should have been arresting us all along.....
