You can make the same argument with using a suppressor during a home invasion..

Well..... I think I would rather be the defendant who was using a suppressor rather than a machine gun. A good attorney could convince more juries that the suppressor didn't make the gun "more deadly" but primarily protected the user. On the other hand, a jury might see a machine gun as more deadly than the same gun that was semi only.
Honestly, I don't consider it a big issue in the case of a full auto firearm. I just wouldn't use such a thing in the normal course of events. Now if it was TEOTWAWKI, sure. But I wasn't sure how NFA people viewed SBR's in this context. Seems like _less_ of an issue but still.... I just wondered if I was going to be turning my AR into basically a range toy.
