CZ 75 SP-01 Suppressed: shooting w/ a Liberty Mystic silencer
CZ's SP-01 is a great suppressor host. The Liberty Mystic can be used on a huge range of calibers and firearms, and we'll try to get a bunch of different guns on camera to see what they sound like with the can.
In this short video we explore a normal, everyday use for a firearms suppressor (silencer... "can"). I wanted to show that normal people use suppressors for everyday purposes. They aren't only for assassins. So I did a few normal things with mine. Like this one: pest control while relaxing in the forest. Don't mind the nitrile gloves. That's also normal.
Okay, so the video is a tongue-in-cheek joke! BUT...
These important safety devices allow you to shoot without damaging your hearing, and they allow shooting without causing noise pollution. In fact, they are *mandatory* in much of Europe. In the U.S., we require a thorough Federal background check complete with fingerprinting and photographs that go along with the application, plus a $200 tax payment in order to get a suppressor (repeat the process & the payment for each and every suppressor purchase). It currently takes about 9 months from the time you submit your paperwork and payment to the time when the ATF (BATFE) sends back the completed paperwork and tax stamp.
All this to regulate an item that is hardly ever used in crimes and, back in 1934 when the law was passed that implemented this regulation, was mostly (apparently) used by poachers. Most silencer-related crime is prosecutions for unlicensed silencers (including 25-year Federal prison sentences for sticking a potato on the end of a rifle barrel). Actual, licensed ones have almost never, ever been used in the commission of a crime (http://wcr.sonoma.edu/v08n2/44.clark/clark.pdf). Anyway...
The whole idea that the only reason somebody would want a suppressor is to commit crime and be an assassin is a complete Hollywood fabrication. As meaningful and effective safety devices, silencers should be deregulated or at least be taken off of the NFA restrictions (National Firearms Act of 1934). The convenience and safety factor of a device that lowers the volume level of a firearm and also reduces the muzzle blast, flash, and the gun's recoil is hard to overstate.
On a side note, the $200 tax has been the same since 1934, when it was the equivalent of $3,500 in today's money. It was an effective way to make sure that only a certain class could afford NFA items (silencers, short barrel rifles, short barrel shotguns, machine guns, "destructive devices," etc... aka Class 3 items).

We tried to fire 1,000 rounds through an Honor Guard to test for basic reliability between cleanings. It didn't go so well. This was filmed prior to the drop safety issue coming to light. As this gun obviously had major issues running properly, we sent it back to Honor Defense and they sent us a different gun that they had checked for proper function first. That replacement gun is the one seen in my drop safety failure video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4N_ZZYZM4w

Tabletop & shooting review of Diamondback's new, full-sized pistol, the DB FS NINE. We put 600 rounds down range.
Full write-up on TheTruthAboutGuns.com (TTAG) here: http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2014/04/jeremy-s/gun-review-diamondback-db-fs-nine
Summary: For $365 to $400, the DBFS9 is a screaming deal! I had a couple feeding issues here and there, which may be related to the quality of the magazine or the fact that I got it really dirty then wet, but when the mag was clean the gun ran great for me. It was really pleasant to shoot with soft recoil and little muzzle flip, great control, fast sights, solid accuracy, and a trigger that is on-par with Glock's. Nice looks and a bargain price means I'm fairly bullish on the DB FS 9. Certainly much more so than the DB380 or DB9! If other examples of the gun run like mine did, I think Diamondback has a hit on its hands!
Big thanks to Kentucky Gun Co (www.kygunco.com) for loaning me the DB for testing!!!

Delta P Design gives us a tour of their new BREVIS II line of rifle suppressors. These are super short, very light weight, monolithic (true one-piece) silencers designed to be mounted basically as a permanent muzzle device and supposed to last the life of a typical barrel.
No welds inside or out. No seams. No separate mounting parts. Made from a single piece of metal.
