It wasn't until he moved in that he realised on the weekends there was a lot of noise coming over his fence. He petitioned the NSW Police Commissioner to enforce compulsory suppressors for all shooters using the range.Thank you for providing real world examples that validate my theory. Argue on the grounds of noise pollution control, and it may come back to bite us in the ass by making suppressor use mandatory.
For a short while a notable Australian anti-gun lobbyist, John Crook was on record as being pro-suppressor, to reduce the 'shocking' sound produced by rifle ranges in built-up areas.
