Do you shoot in your Backyard???

Hopefully, you won't be shooting toward a window. (Drywall is a lot cheaper to repair, in case you have guests like mine. :)

I'm a happy guy now.
after all the silencer manufacture discussion, I realized that I'm not the only crazy one trying to shoot full 10m across the living room, and the vases, mirrors, coffe table, etc. I just need to find the time to shoot when my wife is not around. meanwhile my 26 ft garage is ok (reduced target).
the backyard is green, big and nice to put a lighted/automatic carrier set up, but, it's not an option due to the reasons mentioned above.
Next house must have a 40ft basement (saw ones before).

The BATFE has a Q&A page that addresses the use of silencers on paintball guns and air guns. See http://www.atf.treas.gov/firearms/faq/faq2.htm#a9

I don't see how they can say that a paintball gun or air gun is a firearm, but in this case they do.

Actually, it looks like I will have the trap between two windows. Unless I move it to the garage/family room level. No windows there.

Now, I DO have a project in mind involving a Walther OSP, a threaded barrel, and a suppressor....... :-)

What? No matchlock?

I WISH I could get an indoor black powder range. Alas, the match would set off the sprinklers.
