Interesting the comments about the .300 Blackout versus the 7.62x39.

First time I have heard anyone prefers the 7.62x39.

But IU do want one of these, and a AIA rifle is available at a reasonable price right now. Can't afford even a reasonable price right now though.

I will have to look at what projectiles are available for the Russian 7.62 bore.

A suppressed AIA might do the same job as a .300 Blackout. With handloads, and heavier bullets. Even with supersonic rounds, a suppressed rifle removes a lot of muzzle noise.

As for the legality of suppressors, I live in foolish hope. They were supposed to become widely legal last re-run of the legislation, but like usual, the stasi won again.
