Go into your audiologist's office and look on the wall which will have a chart for the worst offenders for causing hearing loss.Apart from shooting a 20g my son has grown up with cans.No recoil and you mow thru a mob because they don't know where the bullets are coming from.Forget about the AR15 being a killer, a silenced 223 beats it hands down.
No one has mentioned the fact that they make your rifle look pig ugly :p
Just a personal opinion! Haha ...ducks and waits...
Yeah you won't look as sexy with hearing aids though
The pro's far outweigh the con's in my experience. The only real con is extra weight, which is pretty minimal, and even if you decide a suppressor isn't what you want for all occasions, just unscrew it and screw on a brake for days when you want to make more noise/walk further. On one of my rifles there is a minimal POI change, but it is a consistent vertical shift, so I just come up a few clicks when I put the suppressor on, on the others, there is no difference in POI.
When I'm taking the kids shooting, I try to have them shoot the suppressed guns whenever possible. Firstly, it helps protect their hearing, and secondly their shooting improves a lot faster when they aren't flinching due to the noise. If you want to get your son shooting, then a suppressor is a great teaching tool.
Some rifles suit em some don't
