Silencers Are Normal. NOT [just] for Assassins. Suppressors have great everyday uses...
In this short video we explore a normal, everyday use for a firearms suppressor (silencer... "can"). I wanted to show that normal people use suppressors for everyday purposes. They aren't only for assassins. So I did a few normal things with mine. Like this one: pest control while relaxing in the forest. Don't mind the nitrile gloves. That's also normal.
Okay, so the video is a tongue-in-cheek joke! BUT...
These important safety devices allow you to shoot without damaging your hearing, and they allow shooting without causing noise pollution. In fact, they are *mandatory* in much of Europe. In the U.S., we require a thorough Federal background check complete with fingerprinting and photographs that go along with the application, plus a $200 tax payment in order to get a suppressor (repeat the process & the payment for each and every suppressor purchase). It currently takes about 9 months from the time you submit your paperwork and payment to the time when the ATF (BATFE) sends back the completed paperwork and tax stamp.
All this to regulate an item that is hardly ever used in crimes and, back in 1934 when the law was passed that implemented this regulation, was mostly (apparently) used by poachers. Most silencer-related crime is prosecutions for unlicensed silencers (including 25-year Federal prison sentences for sticking a potato on the end of a rifle barrel). Actual, licensed ones have almost never, ever been used in the commission of a crime (http://wcr.sonoma.edu/v08n2/44.clark/clark.pdf). Anyway...
The whole idea that the only reason somebody would want a suppressor is to commit crime and be an assassin is a complete Hollywood fabrication. As meaningful and effective safety devices, silencers should be deregulated or at least be taken off of the NFA restrictions (National Firearms Act of 1934). The convenience and safety factor of a device that lowers the volume level of a firearm and also reduces the muzzle blast, flash, and the gun's recoil is hard to overstate.
On a side note, the $200 tax has been the same since 1934, when it was the equivalent of $3,500 in today's money. It was an effective way to make sure that only a certain class could afford NFA items (silencers, short barrel rifles, short barrel shotguns, machine guns, "destructive devices," etc... aka Class 3 items).

REMIN
remington-rm380-range-review
Hitting the range with Remington's smallest pistol, the RM380. This is an aluminum-frame .380 ACP mouse gun based on the Rohrbaugh R9 / 380. Remington improved on it by adding a slide lock and a traditional magazine release, plus dropping the cost significantly. It's a pretty decent little gun.

SUPPR
suppressor-shoot-off-cz-p-07-vs-sp-01
Ah! Forgot to add another video clip at the end. The P-07 magazine was OBVIOUSLY dirtier than the SP-01 mag due to blowback entering the ejection port and going down into the mag well a little. Here's a photo of both mags after the same amount of rounds (2 mags full): https://app.box.com/s/hvl6r9pp2xmv1bf230ep
I shot the CZ P-07 Duty followed by the CZ 75 SP-01, and was pretty sure that the SP-01 was noticeably quieter. But, with only one Liberty Mystic silencer, I couldn't really shoot them side-by-side. Looking at the video later it was pretty obvious, so here it is edited together so you can see one after the other. Definitely a lower volume level with the SP-01 and you can even see that less gas is coming out of the chamber and ejection port. I think the SP-01 has a longer lockup time, which is certainly possible since the two guns use different locking mechanisms. Both are great pistols, but the SP-01 makes an exceptional suppressor host for sure.
The Liberty Mystic suppressor can be used on a huge range of calibers and firearms, and we'll try to get a bunch of different guns on camera to see what they sound like with the can.

AR-15
ar-15-suppressed-shooting-223-w-a
The Liberty Mystic suppressor can be used on a huge range of calibers and firearms, and we'll try to get a bunch of different guns on camera to see what they sound like with the can. In this video, we test out an AR-15 with a Precision Guncraft billet lower receiver and an Adams Arms piston upper. It's a great setup, because the adjustable gas piston system means you can tune it for the extra pressure/time caused by the silencer. No blowback in the face and very little gas out of the action at all (I think it was just coming out of the empty cartridges), plus correct ejection without empty brass flying into the next county.
I was VERY impressed by how much quieter the gun was with the suppressor. It really cannot be demonstrated with a camera, since the mic on the camera maxes out way, way below the volume of the unsuppressed gunshot. However, it gives you an idea from the bass and the blast and the echo that you hear unsuppressed, and just a sort of crack or clap w/ the can on there. Huge difference.

TAURU
taurus-pt-738-tcp-shooting-review-great
Full write-up on TTAG here: http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2013/05/daniel-zimmerman/gun-review-taurus-738-tcp/
In this video I take my new Taurus TCP out for a spin. First range trip with it and we put 104 rounds through the little guy. 100% reliability so far, with a GREAT trigger and good accuracy. A very thin, light, concealable gun that's easy to carry anywhere legal while dressed in basically any attire.
My local range has over 10,000 rounds through their rental TCP with NO problems! They rent basically every sub-company / pocket .380 that's on the market and this is the ONLY one that hasn't had a part replaced. The Sig P238 is a close runner up, and the Ruger LCP has only needed a couple of repairs (most notably, the takedown pin is a weak point on this model), which puts it just into third place. The rest of the contenders lag way behind, with most models having made multiple trips to the factory for warranty repair along with being repaired in-house. Little pocket guns just typically aren't made to handle high round counts.
Taurus has a success with this gun. Not only is it reliable and good-to-great in every other way I can think of, but you can find them for between $200 and $250! What a great deal. AND, they're even made in the U.S.
We'll continue to put the TCP through its paces, and it's going to be the test platform for some .380 ammo chronograph and ballistics gel tests that I'm planning on doing this summer.
Please message me if you have requests! Things you want to see this gun do or specific ammo types you want to see tested! Thanks.
