So many moons ago when I first became exposed to NFA items, suppressors were always called suppressors.
Calling a suppressor a "silencer" exposed you as some sort low rent Hollywood Vanilla Ice gangsta wannabe and was the equivalent of calling a magazine a "clip".
Fast forward to today and I see "silencer" used frequently and even used in advertising (The Silencer Shop).
What happened? Did we just give up on the one?
