It is my belief that unless, hypothetically. a silencer was made completely legal on a federal level without restriction and without a stamp needed, it would be unwise to use one for SD purposes. What we all have to understand is that you may be found completely innocent criminally in a SD shooting only to face a lengthy (and expensive) civil suit. Remembering that the burden of proof is much less in a civil suit. Attorney fees, the cost of expert witness testimony, loss of work related income and the stress of a civil suit can bring a person down both financially and emotionally and this is assuming that you win.
That's fear-mongering B.S. I don't know how to say it any simpler.

You "could be" crucified for using a semi-auto, or for using JHP bullets, or for using a "defense" shotgun instead of a double. Point is, a sleazy lawyer can go after you for anything, justified or not.
