Ruger Silent

[buckey]

Getting ready to spend my money on a Ruger Silent and hope it's a good choice. Is this still a safe time to send the government $200 and hope to own a can?

I doubt that very few things are "safe" going forward.

Dead Air Mask is a much much much better choice.

All the reviews I read said the silent was the way to go.
Ever since everyone has said I should of bought the mask.

Buyers Remorse is always a pain. I look at it this way > you like your Ruger Silent -- if so who cares what others think. I have a Dead Air mask -- love it. Never used a Ruger so I don't have an opinion. Coctailer here on MGO was my dealer, he recommend the Dead Air - I have not regretted it. Ruger is slightly cheaper ... not sure that makes a difference - the OP is already laying stamp money, etc... difference about 80$ though. Dead Air in stock @ Silencershop, Ruger isn't so that would make my choice. Coctailer is a great dealer too, he's only 20 or so miles away and has a kiosk. Made it so convenient.

I would like to think Gov would refund your money, but I wouldn't hold my breath, but the Vendor should if the option goes away. Personally I don't think these will change, if anything ATF tax stamp will get added to more stuff not stopped. They just want it to be elites who can afford firearms - they only give lip service to fairness.

Yeah. It's my own fault. I should of did a little more research.


But to resolve my issuse, I'll just buy the Mask as well.

The ATF is working on electronic form 4s. The NFA isn't going away, if anything legislation would add items to it. There aren't enough votes in the senate though. Most gun control bills will die in the House as they normally do. Typically the most radical legislation seems to be submitted when there's no chance it will fully pass. It's all pandering for votes and the ability to point the finger at the other guy for blame.

What will the electronic form 4s do?

Speed up the wait for approved tax stamps.
