Suppressed vs Non-Suppressed Hunting

[z987k]

Now that's funny right there



You do realize that you don't have the privilege to go through life without being offended, right?

Of course. Which is why I get up and move. They're fully within their rights to do what they're doing, it's just really crappy to be around, so I move. That doesn't mean it isn't inconsiderate. It still is, but they have every right to be inconsiderate.

Zippo. But your posts illustrate the elitist attitude you canners have toward the breakers. See the link below to put into context:

Understanding Suppressed vs Muzzlebreaks

Lol ‘elitist canners.’ My guy, get a grip. It’s just preference. I have one preference and you have another. I’ve already got terrible tinnitus and don’t enjoy over-the-ear muffs. We don’t have to shoot together and that’s totally fine. No one needs to be offended.

To say you won’t go shooting or hunting with a person who is shooting unsuppressed is asinine.

Why is it asinine to not shoot with someone not using a suppressor?

Them being next to me completely negates the cost and benefit of me having a suppressor. My suppressor, in effect, becomes useless.

Edit: hunting is a little different, and I do hunt with some guys who shoot unsuppressed. I just know I have to take additional precautions if I’m tagging along.

Personally, I refuse to hunt/shoot/associate with people who don’t have tinnitus.

You say that while he's trembling in his closet clutching his rifle with tears streaming down his cheeks because the suppressor fanatics are going to throw him in jail? This isn't a time for humor.

I've never even given it a thought. Never used 1 and quite happy with my set up.

When you go shooting with someone, you both shoot at the same time?
Generally, when I go with folks, one person is spotting, the other is shooting.
You must not have a lot of friends to go shooting with, and/or you aren’t helping new shooters with their rifles. Which tells me all I need to know.

If your mother/wife/uncle/whatever buys themself a new rifle (unthreaded) and asks you to teach them how to shoot it. You are going to hold your nose up at them and tell that peasant you don’t shoot with people that don’t have suppressors? If you say you would do so, that makes you an ass.

Suppressed is the only way to go

Often times, yes.

This happens, too.

I’m not sure how you made the jump to this statement but okay.

you aren’t helping new shooters with their rifles.

I help new shooters all the time, though I’m by no means in the top tier of guys here. Most often I teach people on my suppressed 22, then a suppressed 223. They enjoy shooting way more this way.

If your mother/wife/uncle/whatever buys themself a new rifle (unthreaded) and asks you to teach them how to shoot it.

Generally I teach people on suppressed rifles because it’s more enjoyable. But if someone needs help or wants to learn on their own, I’m not going to turn them down. But I don’t really count that as a “shooting buddy.”

The modern word is plebe.

If you say you would do so, that makes you an ass.

I haven’t said I would do that.


Look, it seems lots of people are upset
I won’t shoot with them if they’re not using a suppressor. So new rule: I will shoot with unsuppressed WKRs since I’m so wanted. You’re welcome.

Who knew people were so sensitive. Jeez. God forbid someone has a personal preference. I shoot suppressed, I shoot unsuppressed. Hell, the bull I killed last month I shot with a braked rifle. I understand not wanting to shoot around someone who shoots with a brake. It sucks. Why does it bother you guys so much if people don't want to shoot around unsuppressed rifles?
