The silencer necessary? i know it makes it quieter so you can not flinch when shooting. but thats just over doing it.

[outkasst88]

@armypenguin It's called a suppressor, and yes, it is entirely necessary if you prefer to hear things after shooting your .45 without hearing protection.

[armypenguin]

@outkasst88 I understand that just saying that makes it into a 10 inch draw not really worth it.

[outkasst88]

@armypenguin I think the real reason why he has the suppressor displayed here has mostly to do with Pro-Second Amendment activism. If people get used to seeing things like that, eventually they won't panic and call the cops every time they see a person carrying something that looks "tactical". Every citizen has the right to carry what they want. That is the law, which cannot be changed, according to The Constitution.

@outkasst88 I see your point but in my mad that gun just went from effecient to ineffecient with the massive draw although I see the point you made.

@armypenguin Check out his holster, I'm no holster expert (only 18, don't own a pistol as of now) but it looks like he just has to hit a release somewhere and the pistol will fall off his hip, so he can just bring it up to target. Again, no expert here, talking out of experience, just my observations, covering my own ass, just what it looks like to me =)

@ImWatchinTheTube I see what you mean but the draw has to be annoying as hell. Plus having idk 8 ounces on the end of my handgun would cause shooting problems. Although there wouldn't as much of a flinch factor from the deafing boom.
