So apparently I am viewed at my sportsman's club as some evil James Bond ninja cat because I own a 22 silencer.

Anyways we had a meeting reviewing some new rules, and they want to make eye and ear pro mandatory. My view has always been if you are stupid enough not to use it that is just proving Darwin was right.

I chime in and say well I never wear plugs when I shoot my .22 because I have a silencer. One of the "range committee" guys says that silencers are illegal.....Then we went on a tangent about how they aren't. We finally get back to hearing protection and folks are saying no silencer's aren't hearing protection, and you have to wear ear pro when shooting silenced. This went on for 2 hours.

We really aren't doing ourselves any favors as a 2A community with so many uninformed gun owners.

Oh, and the vote went not to make it mandatory because of too much indecisiveness.
