Even if you believe that background checks for an inert object like a suppressor are useful, the computer data bases like NCIC etc make the local yokel's sign off obsolete. <br /><br />It's not like the olden days when the county sheriff or police chief kept manila folders in a filing cabinet.

First a lot of pistol rounds are sub sonic (less than 1100fps). 45acp ball for instance (750fps). So if these systems did key off of that, it would miss many shots. The best I could find for now is a video clip that goes into how shotspotter works. Seems to recognize the total signature of the impulse. nj_larrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293484.post-77460832061853436592010-12-04T07:51:23.657-07:002010-12-04T07:51:23.657-07:00MB,

I have been shooting it for 5+ years, recently with some cold weather I had a couple of train wreck stages. Pistol primers not reseating because of low pressures, rifle squib. I mean temps in the 30's and 40's. I am shooting 44-40s so expect similar issues with the 44 mag. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293484.post-83720321051149279972010-12-04T07:46:44.717-07:002010-12-04T07:46:44.717-07:00Just checked the Cheyenne Regulators site, Mike......Just checked the Cheyenne Regulators site, Mike... it sho-nuff is cancelled!

One local judge wouldn't sign the papers,fortunately the second one did. Now it is stalled at the BATF. My dealer is being told it takes from 6 to 12 weeks for them to start processing it.

Another industry has popped up in the last decade which could be directly impacted. The gunshot detection systems (like Sentri and ShotSpotter) that more and more urban areas are installing at the cost of millions of dollars. They and the left wing pols are going to push back that suppressors nj_larrynoreply@blogger.com
