Alabama's New Gun Law: Triggering Tears from Gun Control Crusaders Alabama's latest gun law has drawn significant backlash from Second Amendment advocates, who argue it infringes on their rights. The law's implications for the gun community are increasingly contentious, igniting heated debates about personal freedoms versus regulation. Same Old Gun Control Nonsense Ways and Means fucks us again on the SHORT and HPA.,The speaker expresses frustration regarding the recent markup from the House Ways and Means Committee concerning the Hearing Protection Act and related legislation. Despite efforts to remove certain firearms from the National Firearms Act (NFA), key provisions, such as the removal of short-barreled rifles and shotguns, were not included, leaving the registry intact. While there are some positive changes, like reducing the tax for firearm silencers, the speaker is critical of the overall outcome and urges listeners to take action by contacting committee members to demand more substantial reforms. The speaker emphasizes the importance of public pressure and staying engaged in the legislative process, highlighting the potential for change if citizens remain active and vocal.

Send us a textDiscover the fascinating world of suppressor technology with Kevin Ladding from Arego's Guns in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Kevin shares his expertise on the various types of suppressors available, including high-end models like the Dead Air Nomad Titanium, and the considerations around materials like C300 for superior strength and lightweight properties. With humor and clarity, we unravel the complexities of suppressor ownership, from choosing the right suppressor for different calibers to understanding the balance between affordability and performance.Learn about the streamlined process of purchasing suppressors and the role of entities like Silencer Shop in simplifying this intricate journey. We shed light on the differences between NFA trusts and single-shot trusts, emphasizing the unique responsibilities each entails. Dive into the legalities and personal accountabilities involved, providing a clear path for enthusiasts and newcomers alike. Our discussion also highlights the importance of personal responsibility in suppressor ownership, while considering the benefits of individual applications for quicker processing times.We tackle the many myths surrounding suppressors, especially the Hollywood portrayal of silent gunfire. Instead, we focus on their real-world benefits for hearing protection and safety, particularly in hunting scenarios. Explore how suppressors affect firearms, from bullet velocity to point of impact, and the importance of maintaining them for optimal performance. Our conversation extends to the broader implications of suppressors on wildlife and legislative changes, advocating for a more sensible and streamlined regulatory framework. Join us for an insightful and entertaining discussion that champions the widespread ownership and understanding of suppressors.GUEST WEBSITE: https://www.aregoguns.com/OUR WEBSITE/OTC MERCH: https://offtheclockwithbscott.comHAVOC GEAR SHOP: https://havocnation.comHAVOC BOATS WEBSITE: https://havocboats.comHAVOC DEALERS: https://havocboats.com/dealers/SOCIAL LINKSTruth Social: https://truthsocial.com/@OffTheClockwithBScottFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Off-The-Clock-With-B-Scott/61557737220814/Twitter (X): https://twitter.com/OTCwithBScottInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/offtheclockwithbscott/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwu6_wWcXDoBzhpHv4YgZGQRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-5644782Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2g76hRDp9d609LETevSH2U?si=0ba23ae282c94e88&nd=1&dlsi=d9f84d7699b84724Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/off-the-clock-with-b-scott/id1734265760

It's no secret that suppressors, and in general NFA items have gone down drastically in terms of inventory, and wait times. Ever since the inclusion of Silencers and or Suppressors into the growing list of NFA items, wait times have almost always been the biggest inhibiting factor for potential suppressor owners. After all, who wants to wait over a year to take possession of a tube with some holes in it that you paid over $1000 for? Now that it looks like the road going forward is much more stable and far less painful to wait through, we thought it was time we brought on Dave Matheny, CEO of the Podcast's Sponsor - Silencer Shop. Silencer Shop and by extension Dave Matheny both thing that no matter how you slice it, this boom in suppressor ownership is a net positive on the entire industry. Today we'll talk about some of the negative light this recent boom has cast on the silencer industry, and also talk a bit about how Silencer Shop can help you decide which route to take when starting your NFA journey, and how they can help you pick the right suppressor for the guns you'll be shooting. Please welcome back Dave Matheny of Silencer Shop!
