Kinda a great point about how some folks in the gun community tends to resist eye-rollingly unrealistic PC rules of language usage, but then will try to enforce their own similar rules.
It happens at the time in our shop: A customer will use the word "silencer", and another customer (usually a friend) will proceeded to correct him and admonish him for not knowing they're actually "suppressors". So I'll always point out that their inventor called them "silencers", the Feds call them "silencers", and many - if not most - manufacturers call them "silencers." That usually quiets down the argument pretty quickly.
