    Do I. Don't I?

    Looking at the Toby shoot later this year and thinking it could be good to get TR behind something with longer legs. Yes, I know that will probably mean she thrashes me by even more. Now she is pretty slight so wondering if I do get something bigger for her should I go to one of those nasty noise sharing brakes or stick with a suppressor?

    @kiwi39 @Kiwi Greg @Gibo, though I know Gibo will find this anyway.

    Not being a supporter of noise reducers, I think a loudner is the way to go.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    No matter what the cartridge a decent brake will reduce much more recoil than any suppressor if you are recoil sensitive.

    As previously mentioned you will need muffs anyway

    Yeah. That's what I'm thinking. I don't think a quietener will knock back enough of the recoil for her if I go ahead with my evil plan.

    Maybe could get two brakes? Just to level the playing field a little.

    Being an old deaf bastard like Rushy, it lets him know when he's pulled the trigger, suppressors all the way!

    Radial squirts the noise and dust in all directions?
