I am a veteran and a retired citizen of the United States who dutifully paid his taxes from the time he was seventeen until retiring at sixty four. I would like to buy a suppressor so I can shoot my .22 caliber target pistol at the local range without being encumbered with noise suppressing ear muffs or stuffing plugs into my ears. Furthermore, I would like to do this without getting the approval of my local sheriff who is much to busy to get to personally know me, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Firearms and Tobacco who is manned by government bureaucrats that have little interest in processing my license application in a timely manner, or for that matter, at all. I have had a concealed carry license in three states and thus have been the subject of three FBI checks over the course of 40 years. I would also like to pay my local gun store the 7 % FL sales tax and not pay a $ 200 to the Federal Government in addition which has already taxed me quite heavily all my working career. Is there something wrong with what I would like to accomplish ?
