In 42 of 50 states, it is legal to own a firearm silencer. A silencer, suppressor, or sound moderator can reduce the sound of a gunshot.  Banning suppressors has recently been proposed as a gun control measure, as criminals can use silencers to commit crimes and limit the ability of the police to gain an accurate position of the shooter.  However, gun control opponents say there is a need for silencers because they can negate the need for hunters to wear hearing protection.  In my opinion, people should have a legal right to own a suppressor.   *
Private-party sellers are not legally required by federal law to: ask for identification, complete any forms or background checks, or keep any sales records. This is known as the gun-show loophole.

Felons are currently banned from owning guns unless their home state restores their rights.  There should also be a law that bans gun ownership for people who are currently living in the same house as a felon. *
The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun, is a good guy with a gun. *
Restrictive laws often have unintended consequences resulting in a more unregulated, illegal market for the same products which puts everyone more at risk. *
