In the most recent Outdoor Life magazine they talk about what will happen in the future. One of the things was that suppressors would become legal and popular in the US for hunting.
I guess someone said in Europe the majority of people at gun ranges use suppressors and that it's almost rude to not use a suppressor at the range because of the noise.
I know that for hunting animals like deer, bear, or moose (big game), suppressors might not be useful, but for animals like prairie dogs and ground squirrels where there are many targets and you don't want to alarm the others it could be very useful.
They said that suppressor use around the world is very popular and only in the United States are suppressors really frowned upon. Apparently in the US when people hear suppressors it conjures images of hitmen and assassins wherein outside the US suppressors are common and not thought of in a negative light.
Will Suppressors ever become legal and popular in the US?
