You also need a compensator for pistols with barrels that tilt otherwise it doesn't have clearance to cycle. Heard that is why Luigi Mangione's pistol jammed every single shot with his bootleg silencer. I have a couple of HK Tacticals that come with taller iron sights to allow for a silencer. They also have a weird ass thread pitch no one else uses because they hate their customers.
This new gun is getting relatively cheap laser/light combo, until I get it a red dot that will look over the suppressor. If it proves reliable, it will probably be my new home defense/bedside gun.
Yeah I hear ya, it's expensive for what it is. I could buy a pre-ban AR if I was really adamant about it. But I'm not and I've heard shit from guys that have them that cops give them a hard time. If the rest of this state wasn't so relatively well put together and I didn't literally live in one of the safest towns in the country, I would have bounced a long time ago. And before someone wags an irony finger at me, this town is also very well-armed statistically speaking.
