The sheer numbers requiring suppression. There would be exceptions; concealed carry permits, Olympic shooters, antique firearms, guns which require a replacement barrel to extend past the frame or furniture, etc. It may be the case at certain rifle ranges in built-up areas, or certain hunting areas but that would be about it. Suppressors represent anathema to the authorities and that's where this debate ends.You're probably right. At least, I hope you're right. But I still think it's a bad idea for proponents to pitch it as reducing noise pollution. We'll see.
