Anybody open carry with a suppressor?

You show me a guy OCing a suppressed pistol, and I will show you someone who will have to work pretty darned hard to prove to me he isnt a total douche.

Wonder if DaKruiser has any pics of the way cool kydex shoulder/chest rig he made for his suppressed Mark II?

It isn't illegal so I shouldn't hide it!

It's the perfect opportunity to educate people on NFA laws.

If you would like to have "discussions" with every cop you come across go ahead. Otherwise leave it at home.

I am not sure that I can agree that suppressing a carry weapon is totally a bad idea.

What about suppressing your home defense weapon? If the arguement against OC'ing a suppressed weapon is that "think of how it will look in court, the jury will not side with you" then the same can be said for what you keep in your nightstand. And I know people who prefer a suppressor on a nightstand gun, so that in case they do have to use it, they can protect their hearing.

Now, if the reasoning against OC'ing a suppressed weapon is purely because it looks douchey, then I agree, it would looks stupid.

Big brother scares the hell out of people these days. I hate it but I also understand. Lawyers are expensive.

Lawyers would have a hayday with you in the event of a shooting.Would'nt be easy to draw either.

IF the shooting is justified, why would the lawyers have a hayday with the shooter?

JMHO,justified or not,the suppressor would draw way too much attention. Maybe I should have added the Media would have a good time with the story.

I could see the MEDIA screaming seventeen ways from Sunday about it. I can also picture all the whining comments after the articles, and letters to the editor. I just don't see it going too far in court.

Either way,we don't need any un-necessary attention being drawn towards NFA items.

I'm not scared of attention.

Is there any reason to hide them and allow the general population to continue believing they are illegal or in some way bad?

I'll agree with you that the drawstroke would be more cumbersome, but that's as far as I'll go.

I talked to my holster guy yesterday about making a holster for my m&p 22 with a can just for fun, lol...I think it would be pretty cool for at the range or whatever

JMHO,the media blows things way out of proportion. I would not want any attention drawn towards any NFA I own.
