Only common in LR in this country, but if a 10/22 isnt the answer, then youre asking the wrong question.....

Having seen your location, Im a little surprised. Have the restrictions eased up recently, or do you have a woolly face? Isnt something in 7.62 Russian more up your street.....?

Sorry Mad, was just suggesting makers, I'm out of touch with rifles now (haven't picked 1 up in 5 years). I prefer the quieter life.

Ok, so do you at least eat them?

Second, do you REALLY need a silencer?

This is not Counter-Strike you know?

Yes, although I pull the trigger more so for pest control than because I'm hungry. BBC - BBC Three Programmes - Kill It, Cook It, Eat It, Series 3, Rabbit

Silencer - yes.

Yes I am aware this is not counter strike thanks for reminding me
