Hi there all
Just joined the forum.
Being a rule abiding sort I took the time to read the rules in regard to new postings and alike.
I'm UK based so I'm not to well up on your gun laws.
I was really surprised to read that silencers are outlawed in the US.
Here in the UK we're only allowed a miserable 12 fps muzzle energy unless you hold a fire arms certificate (which is not that easy to get) ..... BUT we can be really quiet especially if you're using a PCP so second or even third shots are not out of the question.
Anyway, love the forum and the posting are really useful.
Pete
