Just learned the silencer bill passed here in Washington.
Now (or in 90 days) I can pop off rounds from the chicken coop with out bothering the layers or stampeding the horses out of the pasture..
coyotes have been traipsing thru the end of the pasture unmolested...
Wonder how they effect accuracy?
Could 'own' a silencer for a $200 -TAX- and a back ground check prior to this but was not allowed to use it.
