ATF Gets New Silencers

 "ATF agents discussed new suppressors on site they thought was private"--The Truth About Guns. The comments on the discussion board mention that the new suppressors "are made by HUXWRX Safety Co., and that they are 'upper lever' and 'good cans.'" The article also notes that the suppressors from that company run $1,200 to $1,300 each. The reason that the ATF says they need the suppressors--items that are heavily restricted as tools only fit for use by assassins--are for health and safety reasons: the exact same reasons that the public needs them. But certain Republicans have put the kibosh on making it easier for the public to purchase them.
